Business groups are waging open warfare against Labor’s plans to push through major workplace relations changes before Christmas.

Labor MP Josh Burns says businesses are entitled to raise concerns, but the government’s industrial relations bill will get wages moving again.

“What we’re going to do and what we’re focused on is getting the wages for Australians moving again,” he told Sky News Australia. “It’s exactly what we were elected to do, it’s what Labor governments do, and for too long, we’ve had stagnant wages in this country.”

Labor thinks ‘it can just pass a law for a higher wage’Sky News host Andrew Bolt says the Albanese government “thinks it knows better than the Reserve Bank Governor” when it comes to “what it’s doing to businesses” with its industrial relations bill. “It thinks it can just pass a bill that's very cutely called the ‘Secure Jobs, Better Pay’ bill, just pass a law for better pay, and bingo, there it is,” he said. “Governments can just pass a law for a higher wage – and no problem, appears by magic, no cost to anyone – why didn't the Liberals think of that? “Because it's fairy tale stuff.” Albo knows nothing unfortunately.
