Protest jail threat CFMEU officialDate: 24 September 2008
Supporters of civil rights and construction workers will rally against the Australian Building and Construction Commission (ABCC) on Tuesday December 2 - the date and time that CFMEU official Noel Washington goes on trial for refusing to submit to an ABCC interrogation. Noel Washington faces six months in jail, because he stood up for workers.
ASSEMBLE TUESDAY 2ND DECEMBER 11.45AMThe ABCC can force construction workers and their union representatives to attend interrogations, record union meetings without workers' knowledge, and remove the right of workers to choose their own legal counsel. The ABCC is a legacy of the Howard government that ensures workers in construction are treated differently from all other workers in Australia. This issue affects hundreds of thousands of construction industry workers across Australia. Join us to support Noel and help end the witch hunt. Send a message to the Federal Labor Government that the ABCC has got to go.
