CFMEU Pressure and Political Fallout | Brisbane News

Published 1 day, 23 hours ago
Description

Former Master Builders Queensland boss Grant Galvin stunned the inquiry with harrowing testimony, claiming he was lucky to be alive after years of union intimidation—including a coffin placed outside his office—leading to a mental health collapse. He blamed the CFMEU’s relentless pressure tied to the scrapped BPIC policy. Fellow bureaucrat Neil Scales echoed the abuse, accusing the union of routine harassment and alleging his contract was terminated for opposing their agenda. Both men described a culture of aggression, with Scales recounting being chased and searched by union members while on duty, and bodycam footage revealing chaotic protests inside government buildings.
