SPER is the QLD equivalent of magistrate's court for fines for any confused people not sure why this is a crazy plan.

Yeah the whole point of that second part is to illustrate that my system is not actually ideal but depends on mitigating personal factors and random chance but if you honestly don't want to believe that QR ticketies don't bother to try and argue with confident wealthy looking white guys because its easier and more efficient to victimize poor people and minorities well good for you I guess you live in a beautiful world and I wish I could join you

I'm not saying that at all, burn qld to the ground, but don't think you're getting a deal by letting sper put you on a payment plan.

euler posted:That might be true but I wasn't suggesting they would write of debts as part of a go-slow. That doesn't make sense. Oh right you just meant doing it as general industrial action not a go slow. ATO workers could definitely do a go slow or walk off the job. They couldn't/wouldn't gently caress around with how much tax people have to pay though.

Still, I'm sure there are a bunch of departments that would be better off doing a good work strike rather than a go slow, or an actual strike. Centrelink/Human Services is the obvious example. e: Also I accept that Political Realities mean a public sector good work strike is probably never going to happen. I can dream though. euler fucked around with this message at 15:48 on Mar 25, 2015 |

Great Barrier Reef: Nationals MP says environmentalists are guilty of treasonquote:Conservation groups are guilty of treason for lobbying the Unesco world heritage committee on the Great Barrier Reef, Coalition backbencher George Christensen has said. I thought this article was worth posting because it demonstrates yet another data point in an increasing shift towards US style political discourse in this country from the right wing. Also, Uber sucks. But I found this funny.

Everyone, the CPSU has a CLEAR PLAN on how to win bargaining and it involves everyone putting a can of DEODORANT on their desk next Tuesday morning to show management how much their offer STINKS. That'll show them. gently caress there are some muppets in this union. Regarding the forms of industrial action, the Protected Action Ballots lodged late last year by the CPSU for DHS and DVA show that the main areas of action are: - ignoring KPIs - go-slows which can be easily called 'complying with all applicable WHS breaks/work to rule/work standard days etc.' - reading pro-union statements at the start of phone calls/putting them in emails - strikes of some form. The ATO one will look pretty similar. Ballot results are published by Fair Work at https://www.fwc.gov.au/resolving-issues-disputes-and-dismissals/industrial-action/protected-action-ballots/ballot-results-8

It's almost surreal that this alleged human being can consume all these arguably leftist / liberalised TV shows like Doctor Who and reframe them through his idiot brain to be vindications of the conservative moment. As though he watched Fern Gully and concluded all the forest animals were really the ones representative of the coal industry and the loggers were The Fuckin Greens

tomkash posted:God bless Summer Hill I guess. I get emails from Newtown but I've only had a few calls in response to me registering for volunteering on the website from Summer Hill. I definitely see them being disorganised, it took me awhile to get arranged to volunteer and I never got to hand out at train stations in summer hill despite asking and speaking on the phone about it. The summer hill greens have always been super friendly and appreciative of what I've done which is great for me because now I'll probably make more effort to go to meetings and be involved with them. Summer Hill is also a great electorate that I love living and working in so I enjoy meeting more of the community here whereas doorknocking in Newtown was nice but I try to avoid the area. I'm in Summer Hill too, so there you go! They were lovely to me too. I haven't decided on whether or not I'm going to the election party, if there's a sizable goon contingent I could be talked into it though.

Ludlam had a good line in the senate this morning, "if an agency wants to track me every second of the day, if they want to go through my email and build a social graph of who I'm talking to, get a warrant." Brandis' comeback was "don't you know how long it takes to issue a warrant, I HAVE TO DO IT. ITS REALLY HARD. I DONT HAVE ENOUGH TIME WHY CANT WE JUST WAVE THIS poo poo THROUGH"

The issue with the TTCC is that they can't actually just remove it, they have contracts in place and need to wind it down. It takes time to do that. I'd rather they have an inquiry into the whole system and overhaul it, rather than just remove a few bad parts of a very broken system. Other things that need to be addressed include giving Translink authority over BCC to set routes (currently Translink recommends routes to BCC who generally will say nah we're making lots off the current bunch thanks), a review of the zoning system (zone 1 is pathetically small and really zone 2 should be merged into it) as well as concession fares for the unemployed.
