I have a close group of mates at work. All of which I've spent a decade or more working and playing with.
I'm the raving lefty of the lot but all are long term commited unionists.
They've brought me coffee in the middle of the night when they know I'm manning a picket line.

All of them helped me when I was stood down at my workplace. (Both times)
They have given me $ for members having a hard time or workers picketing across Australia.
They all proudly wear union merchandise at work and in the community.

They've held an umbrella over me while I lead a mass meeting in the rain.
They've walked with me in the streets, fighting for our rights.
I'd trust these blokes with my life.
None of them are political.
All of them despise the greens.
None of them know who Fitzgibbon is.

When we speak politics I have learner to speak with nuance.
They care about their paypacket. They worry about their kids paypacket.
None of them are on twitter.
None have tertiary education, all have worked hard to give their kids a head start.
They are working class.

They are who the ALP must retain to win govt.
I hope both @unionsaustralia and @AustralianLabor Taylor their comms to them.
People like don't need to be convinced. I will be engaged either way.
They care about JOBS and JOB security.
That's the message.
