- “A shocking survey of over 1100 illegally sacked @Qantas has revealed almost half are still without a permanent job. No one is to blame but qantas for airport chaos” - @NickMMcIntosh
- In 2020 Theo was stood down by @Qantas after advising cabin cleaners of their safety rights at the start of the pandemic. Tomorrow, Theo takes on Qantas in the first prosecution of its kind in Australia. #IStandWithTheo
- The man who paid himself $24m has axed 2,500 skilled workers. @Qantas aims to never employ another baggage handler, push-back driver or cabin cleaner. Why did he do this? Because these workers are united and know their rights. It is a dark day for Australia #SaveQantasjobs
- BREAKING: Qantas has been charged with criminal offences for standing down health & safety rep Theo after he raised concerns about cleaning planes arriving from China early in the pandemic. No worker should ever be targeted for raising health and safety at work. #auspol
- Thanks @sallymcmanus for joining our rally in Hobart today calling for reform to make trucking safer #auspol
- Yesterday @ScottMorrisonMP did another photo shoot inside a truck. But he didn't address the deaths and injuries ravaging our industry. There was yet another horror truck crash death in Adelaide today. We don't expect he'll be talking about this either #SafeRates
- QANTAS WORKERS WIN! The High Court has unanimously dismissed Qantas’ appeal over the illegal outsourcing of 1700 workers. This is a massive victory for the workers who have not stopped fighting for justice since they were outsourced.
- We're horrified. - bus driver told "keep driving" while dizzy - truckies asked to come in when still testing positive - workers told "no need to test" after covid iso or as a close contact. This is the mess @ScottMorrisonMP made. Survey results: twuaus.com/covidsurveyres… #auspol
- Congratulations to Toll workers taking a stand against outsourcing today, bravely walking off the job at midnight to fight for job security. Show them your support #TruckieSolidarity
- This is Theo, a cabin cleaner stood down by @Qantas for raising concerns about covid-19 and a lack of proper PPE. Today on #internationalcleanersday we're calling for more respect to these frontline heroes like Theo.
