MODERATORS
It dates back at least to the 1980s, during the Hawke era.
A Labor party that cast unemployed workers as “bludgers”. A Labor party that concocted a Neoliberal Accord with the ACTU to suppress the rights of workers, as a means to keep wages (and worker power to negotiate better conditions) down. A Labor party that devastated social support by making unemployment benefits far more difficult to obtain.
All this was an “unleashing” of the private sector the effects of which still rage around us today.
