Deebing Creek documentary and MUA action at DP World
13 August 2019
Today on the show we spoke to Maritime Union of Australia delegates, Craig and Matt, from DP World and Hutchinson terminals at the Port of Brisbane. We discussed the current EBA negotiations occurring at DP world, as well as got updates on conditions and struggles happening down at the port. We also talked about the solidarity efforts being taken to deepen the ties between Hutchinson dock workers in Australia and Indonesia, through affiliates of the ITF Dockers.Once again the MUA demonstrating why they are our favourite union - leading the way in the effort to build international solidarity between workers of the west and the global south!
We Also talk to Terry Royan about the documentary he has made about about Deebing Creek mission, being screened this Saturday at Banshees Bar & Artspace in Ipswich at 6pm. Find out more at Save Deebing Creek Mission.
