How many jobs are going to be lost due to these driverless Sydney Trains that NSW is launching?

Whats the Rail Union think about that?

None yet as the only line they’re on is brand new.

Different story once they replace the existing Bankstown line though.

If there's any driving job ripe for automation it would be trains.
I don't know how the rail network is not already fully automated.

I’m sure if all the trains were automated then the rail union wouldn’t have anything to say because they would cease to exist.

I actually think he's a decent minister and etc, but I also feel like he needs a rest.

Having Shorten in front bench is a good look too, as it reaffirms that Labour is a united party. I like the move, and agree education would be a good place for him.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Probably safer than jamming on the brakes for no meaningful reason.

Potentially distressing for patrons waiting at the next stop, but at least it will shut up the usual suspects that take umbrage with the cadaver's lack of thought for time-tabling.

They'll probably put the collision detectors they put on Telsas on there.

First time someone jumps in front of a train, it liquifies the passengers.

In the seventies and eighties we predicted Utopian futures.
