单词	wharfie
释义	wharfie /ˈwɔːfi / noun Australian /NZ informal A person who works at a wharf; a waterside worker or labourer.This lawless activity peaked in the communist-dominated unions - the wharfies and the building industry - which Santamaria and his groupers did not manage to clean up before they were disabled by Dr Evatt.... Then in 1949 he was picked for the New Zealand side, a decision that caused a stopwork meeting by Dunedin wharfies, who objected to the omission of one of their number, George Mills. In fact he supported the communists in Vietnam and the rest of Indo-China, and used his position in the ranks of the wharfies to help undermine the morale of the Australian troops fighting there.
