Industrial relations and taxation will be on the agenda of the Australian Labor Party’s national conference in late July. The left faction of New South Wales Labor will push for the party to endorse a range of workplace reforms, including the right to strike, secondary boycotts and pattern bargaining. Other policies to be advocated by the left faction include the introduction of a universal basic wage, an increased tax rate for high income earners and a national inheritance tax.
