march 10-20

Let’s have a good turn out.

Incidentally, with 1,700 workers at Justice joining 140 of their Parliamentary Service comrades in industrial action as they try to win a meager cost of living pay adjustment, and more departments soon to join them, Parliament’s front lawn could be a busy place in the weeks to come. Strange with a government that says it listens that so many people feel unheard so quickly.

    So we should be shutting down Huntly then?

    Bit hard to read The Standard if there is no power.

    ieuan:

    We probably could shut down Huntley if it weren’t for the spoiled brats on the right who sequel in an unruly chorus every time rational efficiency measures are suggested.

    They could do with shutting the f#*k up outside the law school library.

    I have exams coming up and i keep hearing their pathetic chants from across the road outside parliament. Go back to work and get your precious unions to work it out on your behalf. Isnt that what you pay them for.

    I need peace and bloody quiet!

      angry student is all like “whaaa!, can’t you oppose inaction against the worst crisis facing our country silently, whaa!”

      why don’t you just harden up rather than attacking people for exercising their right to free speech (you still get taught about that don’t you)?

    Blah blah blah free speech.

    whaa whaa whaa paid student learning . . . to better myself through my own means, not bitching and moaning and chanting silly little slogans.

    I could take an action in nuisance against any body (the union and the government) that interferes with my ability to enjoy the university surroundings.

    You would know that if you had more than two brain cells to rub together. As it stands you can only come up with meek responses, such as, ‘harden up’ and would have no clue how to undertake in depth study such as a legal degree, which requires a measure of concentration.

      Your ‘paid student learning’ is heavily subsidised by those people who are out their demanding that the government take serious action to avoid a crisis that will be coming to a head within your lifetime.

      You should be out there with them but you could take an action against them instead if you like.

      You wouldn’t win though because peaceful protests during the day on public property are not a breach of the peace. Your right to silence has to be balanced against others’ right to make noise as part of participation in political debate in a democracy.

      Guess you want to live in an authoritarian state (tell me, are you in charge in that little dream?)

      And I breezed through my law degree, so, harden up.

    Breezed through your law degree huh. If that is the case then you didn’t work hard enough. Further to that, your analysis of the tort of nuisance, while correct in its answer (but for other reasons), is so flawed its not worth dissecting.

    You also seem to spend a disproportionate amount of time commenting on this site, so its unlikely that you have a decent job, one that requires a commendable undertaking.

    Finally might i add that those plebs that earn $12.50 or near that, contribute less in tax than you make out and its more likely that my parents and grandparents have paid more than they, or i, have ever taken from the state.

    Oh and lets just say that you are the smartest kid in school, you’re a pretty fucking awful peer, in that you don’t support people who are earnestly undertaking a degree that challenges them.

      I support you undertaking your degree.

      I don’t support you whinging about people engaging in their right to free speech because you think your rights outweigh theirs (nice, calling them ‘plebs’ by the way, would that make you a patrician, or just a stuck up bugger?)

      Have you got up to conflict of rights yet?

      I was referring to you taking a compliant about disturbing the peace, not suing in tort, which you would also get laughed out of court for. Ask Lord Denning MR
      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_v_Jackson – if a house holder has to put up with the occasional cricket ball breaking their window when they choose to live by a cricket ground, you have to put up with the occasional protest when you choose to study near Parliament.
