Australia's Fair Work Commission to decide whether retweet equals endorsement

Australian union asks workplace tribunal deputy president to recuse himself over retweet

Australia's Fair Work Commission has been asked to consider whether a retweet equals an endorsement, in a motion that accuses the commission's own senior deputy president of bias.

In March 2016, senior deputy president Jonathan Hamberger retweeted a tweet from Liberal minister Michaelia Cash that criticised the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU).
