Ep99: The Harvester Case and the Minimum Wage | 1907
This week, we discuss perhaps one of the most significant legal cases in Australia's history, the Harvester case. Its legacy, that of a fair and reasonable wage for all Australians, is one that is still felt to this day. In addition, we also talk about multiple changes in government, the arrival of Rugby League in Australia, and the establishment of the International Workers of the World (the Wobblies) as well!
