    Default Official State Politics Thread

    Thought that with the big amount of Victorian on this board, and the fact we have both rural and metropolitan members that we could have a thread and discuss the happenings our state.



    Of course to everyone else feel free to post any political news/views and opinions. It only takes a google search nowdays to be up to date on other political isssues.

    Of course we can discuss that. Personally i think that what the government is offering is more then enough. (Yes I'm agreeing with the Labor Party)

    10% increase each year for 3 years is complete rubbish. They have more holidays then any other profession, and all can argue that the teaching of the majority of teachers is alot to be desired.

    3.2% is more then enough. Can you imagine having to pay a teach 30% extra by there 3rd year!!

    they're only on strike because teachers in vic get paid lower than other stats am i right?



    Glistening fangs and gleaming claws,
    Teeth that pierce and jaws like saws,
    Its blood red eyes that pierce the moon,
    My fate is awaiting it will be here soon.

    It is impossible for any severed individual to experience pain
    Pleasure, memory, dream or thought of any kind
    This young man will be as unfeeling as unthinking as the dead
    Until the day joins them

    I don't know weather I'm alive or dreaming or dead or remembering
    How can you tell what's a dream and what's real
    When you can't even tell when your awake and when your asleep
    Where am I?
