Unions are condemning a move by Deputy Premier Peter Bleijie to remove all six union officials from two workplace-related boards. Multiple outlets report that the changes occur quietly ahead of or during Friday night, with the seats filled by new appointees described as LNP insiders and industry representatives rather than union nominees. The reporting is consistent that the affected bodies are key workplace boards, and that the deputy premier’s action results in the complete replacement of union personnel across both boards. While the outlets focus on the unions’ reaction, they do not provide additional detail here on the specific reasons for the purge or the selection process for the replacements. The accounts are aligned in describing the scale of the replacement—six union officials—along with the political and industry background of those appointed in their place. Overall, the story centers on the contested board appointments and the resulting dispute between unions and the government over workplace governance and representation.
