Dear mark,
You may have heard that the Abbott Government has bowed
to community pressure and backed down on their latest changes to Medicare.
Your quick response had an impact - in just 24 hours you
and nearly 10,000 others signed the petition to the Senate.
We then announced nation wide protests the day before
Parliament resumes and less than two hours later Sussan Ley the Health Minister
was sent out to deliver the back down.
Together we sent a clear message to the Abbott Government
that we'll stand together and do what it takes to defend Medicare.
But the fight’s not over and we'll all be on standby
ready to mobilise when Tony Abbott makes his next move on Medicare, remember he
still wants to introduce a $5 co-payment.
We will defend the Medicare Australian unions fought to
establish 40 years ago – a universal and affordable healthcare system for
everyone.
Yours in union,
Ged
Australian Unions Team
