Oh those poor victimised businessmen, they never offer bribes to the union officials of course, just like they don't to planning officials, mayor and city councilors, health inspectors, OH&S inspectors, and whatever other nasty heavyweights stand over them?

The old move along nothing to see here john.
There's another reason the payments to TWUSuper and TEACHO (by toll) needed to be kept out of public eye. Because then, the taxpayer can be ripped of too.
