On the ABC news this morning an item on this was presented in front of sign warning of the presence of asbestos in a small junction box.The surrounding houses had apparently been evacuated because of the extreme danger this small box presented,but whether by choice or accident the "evacuated because of asbestos danger" house in the background was an old fibro (asbestos) house. On the 24 news last night a union official was interviewed and became very agitated when he mentioned Telstra had sacked a lot of union men and engaged private contractors.This was obviously what annoyed him more than the asbestos.
