I believe it's really important to spread awareness of this body and the totally unjustifiable powers it has. Seriously, how can anyone possibly justify an anti worker, anti union body that has such powers, even denying workers and union officials there basic right to remain silent? I think also, the fact that such a body is being kept by a Labor government should be a wake up call once and for all that there is no longer any fundamental difference between the two major parties, and that despite all there rhetoric, the Labor Party simply can't be seen as a party who stands up for the rights and welfare of workers.

The mass media would never present the true state of affairs so clearly. The present crisis shows how wrong Thatcher's let business run business mantra was! Keep up the great work guys These are really great podcasts. The mass media would never present the true state of affairs so clearly.

I guess the task for those of us on the left, is to get across to people that while the focus is on companies like Pacific Brands right now, and rightly so, that what this actually is is a demonstration of how capitalism works on a daily basis, not something new.

The Corporate mantra of the day... Help us give out bonuses to the Exec's while shipping jobs OS. How very Wall St of Pacific Brands to do this to us. No worries, just pay us back all the cash we gave you to keep the jobs in Australia - out of your salaries of course. Disgusting to the extreme - Free up the market until we need to be bailed out.

Your comments are also spot on. Hope you continue to listen, we'll try to put one up every two weeks at the very least. Family and jobs etc led to the cessation of the podcast for a while but we are keen to keep it regular from now on. In socialism, Craig. Thanks for your feedback Matthew.

Bob Briton is spot on, a disaster such as this really blows away the myth hammered by capitalism that individualism is peoples' natural instinct. Situations such as these show beyond doubt that in fact that humans work best working co-operatively together, exactly the type of society advocated by Socialists and Communists.
