Perhaps racing to Parliament House dressed as Storm Troopers would have more effect, but as it is a Saturday and Parliament isn’t sitting, I am not expecting our elected representatives will take too much notice.
ON 4 MAY, STAND UP FOR: OUR JOBS, OUR CITY, OUR FUTURE
ACT Unions: Celebrating May Day and 100 years of standing up for workers.
Wear Red and bring your family
11:30 am Assemble front of Old Parliament House. Short march to Federation Mall Parliament House for speakers, free BBQ and entertainment.
Three quick reasons to come to the May Day Rally 2013
* 40% of Australian workers have insecure work. Australian unions are campaigning for real jobs http://www.securejobs.org.au/
* Tony Abbott has said he will cut 12,000 jobs from the public sector – and that just for starters. That would have a massive impact on the public services millions of Australians rely on. It means 12,000 households without an income . 12,000 jobs cut means less money to spend on small businesses , and less money to keep our economy strong. www.cutshurt.org.au
* Join us in celebrating the contributions made by unionists in the ACT as part of May Day activities and Canberra centenary celebrations
Organised by UnionsACT and supported by Unions across the ACT and region, Ben Halliday, President UnionsACT
