In this special episode of Radio Stingray, MUA Sydney Organiser Shane Reside sits down with a panel of state and branch trade union secretaries including: Paul McAleer, MUA Sydney Branch Secretary
Darren Greenfield, NSW State Secretary CFMEU Construction Division
and Steve Murphy, NSW State Secretary AMWU

To discuss the upcoming Change the Rules Rally to be held in Sydney in the 6th of September.

We learn about the ACTU “Change The Rules” campaign supported by the MUA, AMWU and CFMEU which includes: 
Limiting casualisation and contracting
Allowing for workers to collectively struggle for industry wide standard wages rather than a collective agreement
Favouring permanent migration over temporary migration, ensuring equal pay for women
Raising the minimum wage and crucially making bargaining rules fairer
We also discuss how strike action has been a significant tool in improving the rights and conditions of workers across Australia.

And we look at the role the union movement will play in keeping both sides of politics into account in the lead up to next year's election.
