AMWU’s Bold Blueprint for Fairer Australia | Melbourne News

Description

The AMWU drops a radical manifesto ahead of Labor’s national conference, demanding a tax overhaul targeting the wealthy, new wealth and inheritance taxes, and higher royalties from gas companies. They’re using the revenue to fund universal free education, boosted jobseeker payments, and nationalized aged care — all part of a bold “working-class agenda.” While the government may not be ready to act, the union’s push is already shaping Labor’s policy debate. They’re also calling for AI worker protections, Indigenous sovereignty, and removal of colonial symbols — making this the most comprehensive and provocative union platform in recent memory.
