I have had little regard for Ms Kneebone since her win in the 200m final in the 1998 Commonwealth Games. The favorite, Melinda Gainsford-Taylor was leading when she broke down near the finish line. She limped over the line for fourth. Kneebone's gloating attitude was nauseating.
 
Another day another headline, surely people are a wake up to her now.

Gillard vows to fight 'malicious' cyber attacks

Prime Minister Julia Gillard has warned of a decades-long war against the growing risk of malicious cyber attacks and promised to set up a new national centre to combat the threat.

Releasing the Government's National Security Strategy, Ms Gillard spoke of the cyber threat to governments, businesses and individuals, and highlighted the need to strengthen Australia's ability to respond.

Crossin to defy PM by seeking preselection January 23, 2013

..Mr Wright said that the national executive would consider Senator Crossin and other applications if they were made, but he confirmed that no one from Labor's Northern Territory branch would be allowed to vote.

Speaking in Melbourne earlier on Wednesday, Senator Crossin challenged the ALP national executive to put Ms Peris' name on a party ballot.

She said her immediate focus was to get members a ballot - which she would nominate for - and she encouraged people not to resign from the party in protest at her treatment..

Gillard and Roxon should remember Martin Niemöller's famous statement in their 1984 type assault on free speech.


First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the catholics,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a catholic.

Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.

Mr Burns, your right. Election not far away. They are gearing up.


Schools used as election PR fodder

SCHOOLS with recently finished BER buildings will be required to hold election year "recognition ceremonies" at which they are to praise the government and invite federal Employment Minister Bill Shorten to speak.

An online kit sent to schools advises teachers they are to make "provision in the official proceedings for the minister or his representative to speak" at ceremonies which are not to be planned for parliamentary sitting days.

Students can only be asked to speak "where possible and where time permits".

Schools are directed to "acknowledge the government's assistance in all speeches and publicity issued by the school such as newsletters, websites or local media articles".

Staff are also told they are to "record the day through photographs or video footage" and publish the material on the school website and to provide parking for guests, with a government plaque to be fixed to the building.

I wonder how many kids will happen to be away the day federal politics intrudes into their schools! I can't see the kids enjoying listening to shorten speak...lol

I doubt there will be any protest from the schools, most of the staff are card carrying union members if not Labor party members as well. I recently overheard some teachers discussing how they had rejected a request from a local member to visit their school because he was a Liberal party member. Yep, kids are getting a balanced education :rolleyes:
 
Crazy. Insane.

The IPA's James Paterson explains why Nicola Roxon's anti-discrimination law is so dangerous - and David Marr agrees! From ABC24's The Drum on Wednesday 24 January.

Wow, What a surpirise to hear the socalist left David Marr speak against the bill. He normally supports what ever Gillard says or does.

He is humane after all!!!
