Greens MP Faces Backlash Over CFMEU Protest
News summary

Greens MP Max Chandler-Mather has faced backlash for his appearance at a CFMEU rally in Brisbane, where anti-Anthony Albanese signs, including one depicting him as Hitler, were present. Chandler-Mather defended his participation, stating it was unreasonable to expect him to audit all signs at the event while criticizing the government's aggressive measures against the CFMEU. Labor officials, including Workplace Relations Minister Murray Watt, condemned his actions, arguing that sharing a stage with a troubled union reflects poorly on the Greens party. Despite the controversy, Greens leader Adam Bandt characterized the rally as a legitimate protest against government overreach. The CFMEU has been embroiled in allegations of corruption and links to organized crime, prompting the government's intervention to place its construction arm into administration. Calls for Chandler-Mather to explain his association with the union amidst serious allegations have intensified.
