Australia, already infamous for detoothed unions, just signed the death knell for any serious collective action in a legal sense with this one. Unions already cannot strike without express permission and a promise they won't impact economic livelihood, now they can't even grow to a certain size and power without the threat of being placed under administration.

Oh, and it was the government party supposedly made of labor unions that did this. Still waking up every day pissed off about this.
