Prime Minister throws support behind the Minns government amid dispute with the RTBU

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has commented on the Rail, Tram and Bus Union’s planned industrial action which could potentially threaten New Year’s Eve celebrations in New South Wales. “I think this is a dispute which should be settled, and common sense should prevail,” he said during a media conference on Monday. “We support the Minns government in their actions to try to settle this dispute. The Minns government are being reasonable, and we support their actions.”
