Abstract

The union movement enjoyed a high profile in the two years prior to the 2007 election based on its campaign against the Coalition Governments unpopular WorkChoices legislation. The campaign entitled, Your Rights at Work, campaign continued into the election campaign itself. Business groups, by contrast were less united and less focused. From a union perspective the campaign was its 'Stalingrad'.
