Union Corruption Unfolds: What's at Stake in the Perkovic Probe The latest development in the CFMEU corruption saga has sent shockwaves through the construction industry, with former boss John Perkovic's home being raided by federal police over allegations of multimillion dollar bribes.
This is not just a story about one man's alleged wrongdoing; it's a symptom of a larger disease that has been eating away at the union for years.
Perkovic's rise to power was built on his association with the Mongols outlaw motorcycle gang and his close relationship with disgraced former CFMEU chief John Setka.
