Public Sector Workers for Palestine
Listen now
Description
On this week’s episode, we share moments from the Public Sector Workers rally that took place on Wednesday 30th October outside Parliament House in Naarm/Melbourne. Workers across the state rallied together to demand that the Victorian State government sanction Israel and not public sector workers; that they break all military, diplomatic and industrial ties with Israel as well as cancel the Memorandum of Understanding with the IOF; and finally to end co-operation and investments with Israeli weapons companies such as Elbit Systems. In attendance on Wednesday were members of the Australian Education Union (AEU) who are also part of Teachers and School Staff for Palestine, Healthcare Workers for Palestine, Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (ANMF) Victoria for Palestine, Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) for Palestine and Health and Community Services Union (HACSU) for Peace. Today’s episode will be in three parts. Firstly, we will hear from Justine, an educator and organising member of Teachers and School Staff for Palestine. Secondly, we’ll listen to a statement that was produced by members of CPSU for Palestine. And lastly we will hear a short conversation with an anonymous CPSU member.
