This a classic example of the incompetence of our government/s.
We cant even organize our fruit pickers.
Note the comments of ex-tennis player John Alexander..
"We need some more teeth..." he says...
"While we probably cant go to conscription, we can apply a little more heat and
pressure and do it urgently, because the crops wont wait..." he says...
He went on to say that Australia needs to act "as if we're in a war situation.."
WTF is he talking about.
The man is an imbecile.
Who is going to decide which JobSeeker recipients pick fruit and who dont.
Where do they live.
How do they get to the farm to pick fruit.
Where do they live when they get to the farm.
Does the farmer get a subsidy if he provides meals and accomodation.
What if a fruit picker suffers an "injury" during his employment...who decides
if that injury disqualifies him/her from his employment.
The current JobSeeker requirements suggest JobSeekers are expected to travel up to
1.5 hours each way, each day to "accept" a suitable position...(correct me if Im wrong here...old data...)
How does this requirement morph in with a requirement of someone in say
Sydney being "conscripted" to pick fruit in Batlow.
Will they be given travel "expenses" to get to the job...
Will the "conscription" only apply to locals...
Thats discrimination...
What a fuckup of a government we have...
As the saying goes...
"They couldnt run a choco vine over a shithouse..."
Seems appropriate.....
