Especially this bloke here! At the last election, Minister, federal Labor promised to get wages moving again and support Australian workers. We know that low wages and insecure work were a deliberate design feature of the coalition's economic plan when they were last in government. We also know that these policies led to high levels of industrial action and rising cost-of-living pressures on Australian households. After a decade of deliberate wage stagnation and attacks on workers, how is the Albanese Labor government's policy agenda supporting Australian workers to earn more and keep more of what they earn while also keeping industrial action low?
