Thurs 10 April:
This week Boeing at Fishermans Bend (Melbourne) sacked an AMWU member unfairly. When fellow workers tried to organise a mass meeting Hawker De Havilland tried to prevent it by running to the Industrial Relations Commission seeking a 496s order. The IRC has issued an order preventing all industrial action but the workers are on strike in solidarity with their sacked colleague.

Over the weekend it is requested that supporters nominate to put themselves on the 24 hour picket roster by calling 0412 484 094 or attending the picket.
