University of Queensland denies student union claims of attacks on independence
By Ned Hammond

The university says it has sought a transition plan over concerns the student union has failed to fulfil its governance requirements.

Turns out the late shift going until 11 ends in three weeks. It ends 10:30 starting next month. (Which does make a difference that late in the day.)

Because the Union fought for it.

Electronic shelf labels likely to cost jobs and drive up grocery prices, US report warns
AFL-CIO calls for ban on such labels to protect consumers and #workers from surveillance pricing and job cuts
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/sep/09/electronic-shelf-labels-grocery

Manufacturers have hailed the labels as a way to collect huge amounts of personal data from customers, increase profits and cut #labor costs.

The report argues that electronic shelf labels use the same pricing systems that allow dynamic pricing – price changes such as increasing allergy medication prices when pollen counts are high – to surveillance pricing, changing prices based on personal data.

These technologies are being implemented across the US retail industry at a time when food prices have surpassed inflation and wage gains, increasing 33% over the past seven years.

Documents show federal surveillance operation in #Minnesota targeted #progressive groups, #unions

By TIM SULLIVAN and JENNIFER SINCO KELLEHER
Updated 11:02 PM EDT, August 13, 2026

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — "Federal agents launched a sweeping undercover surveillance operation earlier this year targeting progressive organizations, labor unions and other groups protesting the immigration crackdown then raging through Minneapolis, according to court documents filed Thursday.

"The program, dubbed #OperationPuppetMaster, was aimed at what officials called a network of conspirators helping 'violent opportunists and agitators.' The documents were filed in a case involving 15 people charged by federal prosecutors in June with impeding the crackdown, accusing them of conspiring against the federal government through a range of actions, from throwing ice chunks to setting up blockades.

"The government documents were released Thursday in connection with a motion from a defense lawyer in the case, #KevinRiach, who requested that officials disclose more material collected during the investigations.

"The reality, according to government documents revealed in court motions, was Department of Homeland Security officers infiltrating meetings in churches, schools and parks that were often simply discussions of constitutionally protected protests.

"A statement from the department said Homeland Security Investigations doesn’t comment on the existence or status of on-going investigations or investigative methods. The statement referred questions to the U.S. attorney’s office in Minnesota, which didn’t immediately respond to an after-hours email from The Associated Press."

Ah, the Wikimedia Foundation, that bastion of free knowledge, now wants to freely ignore #unions 🚫🤖. They've traded in their "all-for-one" ethos for a shiny new anti-union law firm 🤝🔨. Maybe they can update their robot policy to include "robots work better without pesky unions" 🤖➡️👋.

Blame game rages as hospital emergency department overflows
By Mackenzie Heard

Launceston General Hospital's emergency department was overflowing on Monday night, with the nursing union describing the scenes as "chaotic" and "unsafe" — as Tasmania's health minister blames the federal government for a lack of action.

Yo, #billionaires!

Highwaymen used to give a choice to those they held up, "Your money or your life?"

If all y'all are sooo smart, why don't you know:

- #Unions are the enlightened alternative to #violence, including violence upon #owners and their minion #bosses.

- #Taxes are the mechanism for ensuring the #distribution of the #wealth created by our #social and #economic #systems to all of the #people participating in these systems and keeping them operating.

Your #opposition and outright attacks on unions and taxes demonstrate extreme ignorance and/or self-delusion.

Violence is never the answer until it becomes the only available option.

Like they say in the game, choose wisely.

New article by Vincent Ramos analyses #parentalleave provisions in the population of collective agreements in the #philippines. A policy reform did not induce short-term crowding-out effects + redundancy functionally raises the costs of non-compliance.

"On January 31 2026, the unions (who had 'endorsed' the so-­called general strike in Minneapolis) told the workers they claim to represent that they must go to work and could not join in any strike action. As expected, the unions prefer the bosses' rules to the workers' demands. The unions' betrayals to the working class doesn't begin with unions acting as flagrant class collaborationist state organs. Rather, they begin in the workplace by establishing recognition for capitalist management rights and promoting contractual mediation rather than the class struggle."
