WORKER SUSPENDED FOR ASKING SHORTEN A QUESTION
Enemies of free speech grow stronger: "The... worker who tripped up Bill Shorten on Labor’s tax plan for high-income earners has been suspended... for speaking to the media. [He was] filmed questioning Mr Shorten at the Queensland Government-owned Gladstone Ports Corporation, saying “it would be good to see higher-wage earners given a tax break”.
The Gladstone Ports worker who tripped up Bill Shorten on Labor’s tax plan for high-income earners has been suspended and forced to find another job.The gutted 49-year-old was told he was in breach for speaking to the media when filmed questioning Mr Shorten at the Queensland Government-owned Gladstone Ports Corporation, saying “it would be good to see higher-wage earners given a tax break”.
The next day the father-of-three’s pass did not work and he was officially told he was suspended.
So the bosses of the Queensland Government-owned port lend the port and their workers to Shorten to help him win the election. One worker, thinking for himself, asks a question that isn't helpful to Labor and gets punished.
Disgusting. Disturbing. it is also treating workers as mere Labor pawns.
