By the Socialist Equality Party Australia 17 May 2014 The “March Australia” protests on May 18 are the first expression of the broad opposition that is developing toward the Coalition government’s budget. The policies unveiled by Treasurer Joe Hockey on May 13 represent a dramatic escalation of the three-decade assault on the living standards of the working class.

Australian budget targets workers and youth

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Wed, 14/05/2014 - 9:18pm

The Abbott Coalition government’s first budget is a vicious attack on the working class—targeting young people, the unemployed, the chronically ill, the disabled and young families in the interests of the rapacious drive by the financial and corporate elites for the accumulation of ever greater wealth.

As Treasurer Joe Hockey made clear in his speech last night, the budget is only the “first word” in what will be an ongoing and deepening offensive, with “much work” still to be done to bring the budget back into surplus.
