From The Campaign Trail

.....
The High Court has found that John Howard's Workplace laws are legal. Let's not pretend that legal means a fair go or just treatment of workers. Howard's law has stripped back one hundred years of hard won rights for workers. The High Court has simply confirmed that it is now legal to dismiss workers without appeal, to undercut employment conditions, reduce penalty rates and overtime, end holiday loadings, stop redundancy pay and destroy a host of other essential conditions that protect both workers and, most importantly, their families. Kim Beazley has promised to rip up these now legal but unfair and unjust laws. Only Labor can protect middle Australia.
