"Growing unrest" in Labour caucus over live exports

Finally, our politicians are taking notice.

Media is now reporting 'growing unrest' amongst the Federal Labor caucus following revelations of a cruel mass slaughter of 20,000 Australian sheep in Pakistan. In less than 20 days, Federal caucus meets for the last time this year, leaving us with a short window of opportunity to win support for phasing out live exports.

Woolworths caught out deceiving shareholders

How low will they go? After taking GetUp members to court in an attempt to deny their constitutional right to an EGM and continuing to defend a predatory business practice of placing high loss machines in poor areas Woolworths is at it again.
