“One Nation head office is receiving calls from disgruntled tradies and workers, after deciding to cancel their CFMEU union memberships to sign up with One Nation instead”, a spokesman has said .
The shift comes amid mounting allegations of corruption and organised crime surrounding the construction union.
These callers are fed up with what they see with years of dodgy deals, inflated costs on major projects, and a leadership that’s let them down.
At the Queensland Government’s Commission of Inquiry into the CFMEU, John Holland Operations Manager Glynn Ladbrooke testified that the state’s Building Project Industry Code (BPIC) significantly inflated construction costs. He revealed that the Gold Coast Light Rail project budget soared by nearly 66%—an increase of more than $428 million.
Cost Impact Evidence
- Ladbrooke detailed the financial effect of the government’s BPIC procurement policies.
- The original cost estimate for the BPIC impact was around $150 million.
- The actual extra cost estimate rose by nearly 66% above the project’s original $660 million budget.
- Government officials estimated cost increases between 26% and 39%.
Financial Strain
- Ladbrooke confirmed that John Holland lost money on the project and the company did not recoup all claimed costs through their contract.
- He rejected comparisons to other states, noting unique Queensland market conditions meant interstate metrics did not apply.




I spent 40 years in the Sydney building industry, 33 of those running my own company. The CFMEU are NOT a union. They are an organised crime syndicate and the major reason the cost of construction is so high. They use thugs and criminals as their front men while the low life in the offices above slip on a t shirt to impress the useful idiots that still think they give a dam about them. They are thought of as nothing more than cannon fodder, and so they often continue to be at the whim of the next low life communist criminal that is put in the big chair. It’s about time they woke up.
Isaac will fond this something of a confirmation of his military theory, which is actually fact:

Many in my town would not realise that the transparent rubbish bin liners at the local Geelong station are transparent because of military requirements.
And here you have it from the great Rom Stewart:

He, he, he… You gotta luv our institutionalised set ups. They come in many different coats and in many colours. It doesn’t matter whether you’re punting on the Lions, the Christians or the Gladiators. They’re all owned and run by the same hidden crew that owns the High Priests and the Senators.
Hey folks,

Can you see the writing on the wall yet? Are you sensing the trajectory of our collapsing country?

Interesting. In my 2 years of study of Political Science in the 1960ies, it was clearly taught that the RCC controlled all unions and and every public service in Australia. The General in Rome rules. Maybe he has plans for Patrick’s Mr Rope and Mr Lamp-Post.
Hey folks,

Just so you know, Captain Cook was an unmitigated BASTARD…

The moral of the story is – Mr. Rope and Mr. Lamp Post are coming to make things RIGHT.

I am 81 now and I remember my Dad telling me one of his mates (a State Government Building Inspector) was taken off shore Sydney, with some of the “boys”, in a fishing boat. His mate had each foot in a bucket of set cement. Five (5) miles off shore, the “boys” heaved him overboard. Then they went deep sea fishing for the next 6 hours, before clocking off.
Which Unions own which Labor MP’s
puffin’billy said – “… Then you have bought a few more years of ignorance from the sheep!”

Another five or six years to be pedantic.
.
When enough of the Useless Eaters have nothing left to lose and Mr. Rope and Mr. Lamp Post FINALLY ride into town to set things RIGHT.
.
Because when the Hoi Poloi cry for a Hero, the Vampires and the baby-eating Globalists are happy to GIVE them one, all dressed up in the guise of yet one more TROJAN HORSE saying everything we want to hear. And when that one comes out of the closet and breaks every promise and shows its true colours, they’ll wheel out the NEXT one, and the next and the next and the NEXT.
Mr Rope and Mrs Lamp-post scheduled to wake up tomorrow morning ?
Hopefully all the bad guys will be swingin’ by xmas.

Yes, Puffin’. But nowhere near as extreme as now. As for the carrot top, better her than the Albogreezie, though none of them are at all acceptable, as they are all part of the cabal.
I am a carpenter and former member of CFMEU Bob. I concur, they are and do everything that you have said and more. I worked in the city too man…I saw it too. Organized crime.
How do you appease the masses when they finally work out Labor/Liberal/National parties are destroying the country? You give them the controlled opposition you have been grooming for DECADES! ONE NATION! Then you have bought a few more years of ignorance from the sheep!

The silly female Ronald McDonald (Jewish Demonic clown) has let us all know where her loyalties lie over Israel. Pauline is just another employee of the COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA Inc. Just another member of ‘SATANIST ARE US!’
Readers might find it interesting that in the Howard era a survey was done of construction industry workers, a vast majority of whom actually voted for the Liberals that particular election cycle.
The workers, in my fairly long experience, were never consulted on donations to any party, let alone Labor. I was just automatic.
As a CFMEU member and construction worker in the heyday of the apartment developments along St Kilda Rd and around in the mid to late 1990s I was aware of the corruption then, though it was nowhere near as extreme as has been reported now lately.
There is no avoiding corruption in industries that turn over billions of dollars, and in the mid-90s was recognised by all parties, workers included, and was essentially unavoidable, as we all know.
But what has transpired in the Big Build era is inexcusable, mostly because the unspeakably corrupt Victorian government has condoned it, as it has the corruption in local Victorian councils.
This is from Ian Cook’s website, Ian, as you all know, being at the centre of the Slug Gate scandal, as per this: https://iancook.com.au/sluggate-scandal
I know Ian, and he is one of the most decent peopel I have ever met have done since the second time I saw him in the Melbourne papers, as evidenced by the story of the deaf girl he hired.
It goes like this: the deaf girl’s sister worked for Ian at iCook iFoods, and one day asked Ian if her sister could get a job.
“Sure”, said Ian, having advised Ian, in the course of asking him, that her sister was profoundly deaf: as long as she could work safely. And she did, becoming one of this best workers, earning a thousand dollars a week and paying off the house that she lived in with her mum and dad.
When Ian’s company went down, the deaf lass lost her job, and they lost the house, and the poor lass spent the next several months just crying her eyes out.
As far as I am concerned, that sort of thing is a hanging crime, and has only occurred because of the entrenched greed of others.
Ian told me yesterday that, as many Victorians might do: if Labor wins again in Victorian, he is pulling up stakes completely and leaving and never coming back.
I think that a lot of Victorians might be on the highway out should this disgraceful Victorian government ever get elected again.

I am in my 70’s & know full well the mega bullying tactics of the CFMEU over the years. Their speciality has always been to use heavy handed tactics of an extreme nature if necessary. These stand over men are toxic thugs & have been linked with the bikie scene for years.This union & others are rife with criminality & in their own eyes are proud of constantly threatening people if it be deemed necessary. They do not give a damn about their members – not at all. Nothing will ever clean up this mess because some of our politicians are in it up to their necks. The Labour Government is sinking our ship.
