Give us a vote to demerge from the CFMEU
Rather than being of benefit, affiliation with the
CFMEU has become a drag on Manufacturing
Division members
Following the departure from the union of over 20,000
mining and energy workers it is high time that
Manufacturing Division’s members have a vote
on their future.
Take action, make the declaration:
“The future of the Manufacturing Division should
be decided by its rank-and-file members.
It shouldn’t be decided by bosses.
It shouldn’t be decided by John Setka or any
other official of the Construction Division!”
What’s happening with the demerger?
Earlier this year Senator Lambie came within one
vote of changing the law to allow our members
to have a vote in a secret ballot to determine if
we wish to leave the ever-declining CFMEU.
Since then, the Construction Division has
agreed to hold discussions with our division to
see on what terms they would agree to allow a
demerger vote to go ahead.
