Riot at Port Hedland Detention Centre 

Here's a publicity stunt gone badly awry.

A socialist agitator heroic teacher plans a trip to show her high school girls an evil detention centre full of peace loving refugees.
Unfortunately, the jackbooted oppressors staff of the imigration department advise our fearless do gooder that high school girls will not be granted access due to fears for their safety. Naturally, our heroine takes the students 1700km to the detention centre to make a point anyway.
While there, an "outside party" informs the friendly peace loving refugees that the heroic teacher is not allowed access due to safety fears.

No prizes for guessing what followed...

Discovery Channel 

Amazing. This search returns no responses.
So I guess I'll be the only one:
Enough of the fucking sharks already!

A Letter to the Sydney Morning Herald 

One of the pro liberal (that's Australian for conservative for foreign readers) letters that got into the SMH today.
Can the Labor Party please just choose a new leader, lose the next election and let us carry on with our generally good and competent Coalition Government? We now have a stable and prosperous Australia and, while the Labor Party machinations are quite amusing, we still remember 18 per cent interest rates, unacceptably high unemployment and the recession we had to have.

Terry Davis, Lindfield, November 29.

I also remember the "J curve", the "Banana republic" and annual Christmas transport strikes.
