Email to Opposition Leader, Mr Rudd MP on 4 May 2007

Dear Mr Rudd MP,

I am writing to acknowledge that Melissa advised me on 24 April 2007 that you did not want to respond to my email of seeking support for the petition for people’s fundamental constitutional rights to obey law at work. Implicitly, it means, to the effect, that you do not support the petition for people’s fundamental constitutional rights to obey law at work even though you might believe workers’ rights are the heart and soul of Labor Party. If I am wrong, please correct me.

Nevertheless thank you for your time and attentions. I should write this email earlier.

On 2 October 2006, when responding to my initial inquiry, you excused yourself from supporting the petition by saying that I was not your constituent even though you did not deny that the petition for people’s fundamental constitutional rights to obey law at work were for the interests of your constituents, who were working class, and the interests of the society as well.

Now you have the resource, and Melissa advised me that you had no reason for not responding to my email. Apparently, it is not a matter whether you have resource; it is a matter whether you want to uphold people’s fundamental constitutional rights to obey law at work.

Last time your advice was: “In addition, it would be best if you raise these concerns directly with your Federal Member of Parliament, Nicola Roxon MP. I have copied Ms Roxon's office into this correspondence for their information”. Obviously you do not need to send a copy of my email to Ms Roxon MP this time. You are Ms Roxon MP’s boss now, have the authority to take actions and know that you have no reasonable excuses for doing nothing in respect of this petition.

An argument will be: if the Labor leader does not care people’s fundamental constitutional right at work why the Federal Coalitional Government ought to care people’s rights at work.

This is a matter as to whether we can say: “no” to unlawful activities. This case indicates well, how the system technically allows people with power to act unlawfully and disallow vulnerable people to act lawfully when conflicting with the interest of people with power. Apparently you hold it is acceptable that people have no right to obey law at work. If I am wrong, please correct me.

Apparently you hold: the employees ought to follow any instructions from their bosses including unlawful instructions; this country does not operate under the rule of law; it operates under Mr John Howard’s rulings, or your rulings in the future; the ordinary people and politicians should not bother themselves with the law and the Constitution. If I am wrong please correct me.

We believe: people’s rights at work are worth fighting for, and we have obligations to tell you, as the alternative Prime Minister, what has happened and what are happening to other workers and the society, despite frustrated by the difficulties we have faced.

Thanks anyway for your response that you did not want to respond, without any particular reasons, to our request to supporting the petition for people’s fundamental constitutional rights to obey law at work on behalves of your constituents and working class.
