have taken a step towards a national strike, with their unions asking the Fair Work Commission to petition members after negotiations with management stalled.
A strike among union members would, depending on what’s involved, be a severe restriction on ABC’s operations – the broadcaster has 3825 full-time and 738 contracted employees. Combined, it’s understood both unions have well over 1000 members. “The solution to that issue is not to turn around and ask staff to continuously accept sub-inflation pay rises that leaves them and their families struggling to keep up with the cost of living,” she said.
Second, that management carry out a gender and racial pay gap audit. Third, a review of workload, and lastly, changes to the way the ABC pays overtime.The negotiations have been under way since July last year, shortly before the organisation received an $83.7 million operational and $32 millionover four years – $20.9 million and $8 million a year in each area.
Make the ABC interesting again … make it user pays.
Or what, we won't get our daily dose of left-wing potification on programs like the drum? What a loss that will be

ABC’s reporting of local meeting in Alice Springs left residents ‘gutted’Alice Springs Resident Michelle Thompson says local residents within the town were “gutted” after the ABC’s report made the meeting appear as racially divisive. “I was totally gutted by their reporting, they were so inaccurate I thought that person couldn’t have possibly have been there,” she told Sky News host Peta Credlin. “The only people that I know would have left in tears were the agitators that were asked to leave by the Arrernte people. “They were just there to disrupt, there were over 3000 local residents all there because my son had put out a call for everyone to come together to try and move forward, to save Alice Springs.” Their ABC are a disgrace. DefundTheABC Well perhaps could do a story about Smirko ignoring the problem for years. No one hold your breath though 🤦♀️

ABC accused of 'not caring' about Alice Springs after controversial coverageThe ABC’s controversial coverage of an Alice Springs town hall is coming under increased scrutiny with an Indigenous Senator accusing the national broadcaster of not caring about the town’s residents. To Senator Jacinta Price I suggest that the Indigenous community use the superior governance skills they espouse to sort out the problems in Alice Springs. ANY thing that non indigenous people try will be met with vitriolic abuse and screeches of 'white supremacy' and racism. Doesn’t matter just remember it’s our ABC!

Cardinal Pell’s funeral ‘another chance’ for ABC to ‘peddle anti-Catholic prejudice’The funeral for Cardinal Pell will be a chance for people of faith, Catholic and other faiths, to give our country's 'greatest Christian leader' a respectful farewell, says Sky News host Peta Credlin. “For the ABC, though, it will doubtless be another chance to peddle its anti-Catholic prejudice,” Ms Credlin said. “Religious bigotry is alive and well in this country, only now, it's directed against people of faith, particularly Christians, rather than practiced by them.” Rest in Piss to anyone who protects child abusers MurdochGutterMedia If George was Australia’s greatest Christian leader, just how bad is/was the worst? I mean she’s right, molesting children is the Christian way, I guess he was just being a leader.
