The Labor Party and the Greens continue to oppose reforms that would protect union members, workers and taxpayers. By their opposition, they make it very clear that they care more about their relationship with militant elements of the union movement than they do about union members, workers and taxpayers. This, quite frankly, is remarkable. Those opposite should not hold the construction industry to ransom so that they can continue to receive campaign support and millions of dollars in donations from the worst union offenders.
