An interview with a family involved in the
SEQEB dispute of 1985.
"We had the
support there that day but we didn't have any
leadership. There were guys who walked out of
that meeting and said 'What the bloody hell did
we come here for?' One leading official got up
there and spoke like a bloody old nannygoat -
they didn't want to hear that bullshit. Now after
that meeting we went down to Parliament House and
had a picket, sacked SEQEB blokes with a lot of
our supporters. That same (union) official got up
that night on TV, referred to the sacked workers
as 'unruly rabble' and the people who were
supporting us as bloody 'rent-a-crowd'. That was
the very same bloody night" |
