Green Left Show #30: WA nurses and midwives defy intimidation

December 5, 2022
Issue 

Nursing union activist and Socialist Alliance member Chris Jenkins explains the dispute between the Australia Nursing Federation (ANF) WA and the WA government on the latest Green Left Show.

The Labor government had threatened to deregister the ANF, among other intimidation, in the lead up to the November 25 strike which was supported by thousands of workers.

Jenkins says the union leadership should be doing more to defend nurses and midwives' interests.
