Casual University Workers in Australia Are Escalating the Campaign Against Wage Theft

Was your degree debt produced on the backs of  50,000 untenured, poorly paid, casualised, ripped off wanna get higher degree researchers and academics? Highly likely. The Administrators weren’t treated in the same manner they get paid $1mill ++ at the top of these corporations to churn out false promises, debt, and a casualised hospitality workforce.

After enduring wage theft and job insecurity for years, casualized workers at Australian universities are pushing back. Faced with multiplying court cases and industrial action, university managers are desperately trying to avoid taking responsibility.

Morrison’s Migration Act is cruel and compassionless

Who Scott Morrison is, and who he wants us to see him as. The Sell and the Product

The Australian Senate needs an education. The Australian nation needs to know. We must carry hearts and souls to the truth. Once in the know, the Australian people and the media can galvanise governments to do what is right — the common good, understand human rights as universal. I fight for as many as I can because I remember those who took their lives rather than be deported.

A few years ago, a 22-year-old former Iraqi refugee was to be deported. He was a young father of two living in Sydney. For alleged minor offences, he was detained at Villawood Immigration Detention Centre. One night, he was flown across the continent, away from family to Yongah Hill Immigration Detention Centre. He wasn’t supported and died by suicide. The detainees burnt Yongah Hill. I assisted the grief-stricken family. I organised their legal representation. They are suing the Commonwealth Government. But this will never bring back the young father — a life needlessly lost because of cruel policies. If there’s a Heaven, the so-called Christian-faith-based members of the Morrison Government will have a lot of explaining to do or be purgatory-bound.
