Black lives DON'T matter to....
Apr 10^th, 2018 at 4:12pm

Australian Union Grubs!!

A high-ranking Australian union official has been stood down amid claims he was involved in a fake Black Lives Matter Facebook page that collected hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations.

The Black Lives Matter page had almost 700,000 followers — dwarfing the movement's official page — before it was suspended by Facebook.

It allegedly collected money through online fundraisers and solicited more than $US100,000 ($129,000) in donations, according to an investigation by US media outlet CNN.

(Having said that, the NUW aren't one of the best unions around)

That's correct.

Nothing to do with the Union movement as a whole.

This guy in the OP is a bit of a dick.

I've met him briefly a couple of times, and he's one of those old-school union bully boys.

Neither he nor the NUW has any respect in this state.

Yep.
Funny how whites don't yell racist when it comes to a black lives organisation yet if whites had the same movement we'd be labeled racist.
Because....
THOSE WHO SCREAM RACIST, ARE RACIST!

As for this particular union person.
I don't know of one organisation that doesn't have at least one bad egg.

I personally can't stand polliticians they are corrupted and so detatched from society it impedes their decission making.....but they are not all like that.

The problem is America....Black men have been shot whilst unarmed on multiple occasions by cops who are immune to prosecution....One white woman got shot by a black cop and the outrage was extreme and justified as it is in all cases where police kill innocent people???

Huh
