He wouldn't have modelled for the picture if that was his intention!

Re: Labour Day.
Yeah, not sure why you'd want to drive union memberships and lose the disproportionate increases in company/ shareholder profits versus wage growth we're all enjoying so much......!
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Haha sure but it's up to the unions to do that not AFL clubs.

AFL clubs promote corporate interests all the time. Why not employee/ worker interests?
Of course I'm being silly, but this is how normalised we've made the interests of the average Joe another avenue for consumerism to benefit corporates. Then when the merest suggestion of promoting worker/ labour and essentially consumer wellbeing is tabled we think it's ridiculous!
Unions = bad.
Thor Jumpers = good.

Well, I agree in principle with what you're saying but the only difference I can think of is that clubs are paid to promote those interests. If a union paid to be a sponsor of an AFL club I wouldn't want the club to refuse (though if I were a union member I'd consider it a waste of money)

Maybe hujsh already has a nice fence you can't assume in these situations.

"workers" they drive a car, or a motorbike and block the roads for the important people.
Hey btw find out what happened to the St. Albans / Keilor fire station door for me they were reverse parking a big red truck last night and doing ten point turns.

I would add that in addition to scrutinising the union marketing, there certainly should be stronger rules around the Industry SuperFunds marketing themselves also - I dont want my money thrown away marketing the fund
