Does anyone know why there is a big inflatable rat looking into the construction of the new sports centre in Redbank, just off the GSP?

It’s usually the symbol of a union protesting their employer

Protest from trade unions… probably for not using unionized labor

Usually a union protesting someone who is NOT their employer.

I saw a three-rat site in the late 00s once. Glorious display.

Triple rat wow. Must have been some serious money involved there.

Actually they have had one 25' tall rat blow-up with 3-4 union workers and another smaller one on Half Mile Road side with 2 union workers. I laugh thinking someone is paying 4-6 union workers to protest.

That’s a hoary old thing they break out to protest using non-union labor.
