COSBOA CEO Alexi Boyd says down the road we need to look at the “modern award system” to make it more appropriate and “reflective” of the modern workplace.

“We’re working with the government, we’re working with the crossbenchers and we’re working with the Independents, everybody who wants to make things better for small businesses,” Ms Boyd said.

“But importantly, we need to see some action to protect small businesses from the unintended consequences … that’s what our members are focused on. “We met with them recently and they are saying that they are hearing from small businesses, there is a real concern about the multi-employer bargaining.”

Speculation Elon Musk could buy Donald Trump’s Truth Social'Don't be surprised' if a representative from Truth Social reaches out to Twitter CEO Elon Musk asking him to buy Donald Trump's social media platform, former White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney says. Mr Mulvaney said Mr Musk's reopening of the former US president's Twitter account has put Mr Trump 'in a real bind'. 'Why? Because he loves that big audience that would be available to him on Twitter .. but he also owns Truth Social and if he goes back on Twitter it probably kills Truth Social,' he told Sky News host James Morrow. 'So he's torn between two things he really loves: a huge audience and great ratings, and money.' Haha. Don’t be stupid. He tried to bail on Twitter several times and he was held to account. He wouldn’t touch Trumps trash site for a measly few mil. Musk will likely try to shill Twitter soon also. Never gonna happen… he likes Donald Trump too much (secretly) 😋 Musk is only using Trump as marketing stunt. Truth Social is like any other business... not doing that well. Problem is Trump can only use Truth Social he's legally tied to Truth Social. His investors will probably sue.

They were provocative in forcing Turkish women feeling cozy with wearing head scarves not to wear scarf. Every time I saw them,I said “don’t be intimidated by them it’s ok wearing ur scarf.I wear scarf too.”
