Workers rally in Wodonga : Melbourne Indymedia

People gathered at Jack Hore Place where protesters heard from Labor Party MP Julia Gillard, activist Jasmine McDonald and social worker Les Twentyman.

Steve Felstead, the secretary of the North-East and Border Trades and Labour Council, told ABC radio "There's still a lot of people arriving, we're marching from Eltham Street, up High Street in about five minutes and congregating out the front of the civic centre," he said.

Julia Guillard told the crowd that the new industrial relations laws will lower wages and create uncertainty for workers, as well as removing employees' rights. According to ABC radio she said "There's nothing wrong with flexibility, but there is something wrong with driving wages and conditions down, that's not about flexibility, that's about really just about the boss taking more and the worker getting less," she said.

I went along to this one, and put a report on The Bull at anarchy.org.au along with a few images. What pissed me off was the focus on the 2007 election as being the only answer to stopping all this.
