SDA and Labor protect price gougers because the supermarkets recruit children to the SDA club. “Yes we engage with companies, and yes we have an opportunity to sign people up into the union. We don’t make an apology for that." #FightBackWithRAFFWU

Coles blocks access to Vote No materials on the RAFFWU website while the SDA website is given free reign. Treating workers like mushrooms is what big business and SDA do. Don't live in the dark being fed crap. Get informed and #VoteNoForABetterDeal

RAFFWU Member & @Coles worker Taylor sums it up. Meanwhile, SDA says its sellout deal was "endorsed by SDA members". Hundreds say they never endorsed it and weren't given a copy! #VoteNoForABetterDeal #FightBackWithRAFFWU #LivingWageForAll #SuperStrike

A freaking drink bottle?! Coles makes billions and starves out workers campaigning for living wages, safer workplaces and secure jobs. If @Coles really cared it would pay us a living wage for Christmas. #superstrike #fightbackwithRAFFWU #livingwageforall
