Letters to the EditorNot a Chaser Fan
Satire: Addict Stops Using Smack After Talk With Parents It is distorted puerile rubbish like this that gives the right wing fuel to condem left wing morality. A lot of us workers are parents, not all undergrads who view the world through JJJ & Backburner on a diet of mackas and dominos. If the author of that satire thinks it is unreasonable to remind parents of their role in drug abuse prophylaxis, then the author is a dickhead, and I question the judgement and motive of those who run this site.

As the dust settles in the WorkCover war, we look at what's been achieved and what still needs to be resolved. Unions: The Real Big Brother Have you ever got the feeling someone is watching you? If you work in one of the 4000 Call Centres in Australia then you�re probably right. International: The Not-So Shakey Isles NZ Council of Trade Union secretary Paul Goulter looks at life for the workers under a Labour Government. Corporate: BHP: The Bit Australian The BHP Billiton merger was an act of corporate tyranny. And, as Zoe Reynolds report, humanity does not figure on a corporate balance sheet. History: A Proud Tradition of Mediocrity Budgets always generate hype and a media circus, especially in the lead up to elections. This one is no exception and the Coalition consistency in panic and lack of ideas is reassuring in its lack of ideas. Review: Ideologically Sound Mark Hebblewhite trawls through the CD rack to dispel the notion that there's no politics left in pop. Satire: HIH Recovers Own Losses The collapsed insurance company HIH has lodged a claim with another insurer to be reimbursed for its $4 billion loss.
