The other half were branch delegates, some of whom may have been union members, but were not union delegates. The Labor Party members voted by about 700 to 100 against the government's privatisation proposal, which directly contradicts a promise made by the government going into the last election not to privatise. Most of the stuff that has been printed in the Australian is neoliberal propagandist rubbish. Ozleft has comprehensive refutations of most of the Australian's lying rubbish. http://ozleft.wordpress.com/ Actually, Adam, about half the delegates who voted overwhelmingly against privatisation at the Labor Party conference were from unions.
