The battle continues: join the Resistance!
For the first time in 11 years we are under a new government, a Labor government. PM Kevin Rudd’s government was elected off the back of mounting dissatisfaction with the continuing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, inaction on climate change, the Northern Territory intervention and Work Choices, but the battle for change has not been won.
The Rudd government has already shown that it will only water-down Work Choices — not get rid of it — it argued against real action on climate change at the UN Bali talks and supported the NT intervention from the beginning. Rudd claims that combat troops will be withdrawn from Iraq — only to be redeployed in Afghanistan. Clearly a Rudd government is not going to carry out the progressive changes the majority of people want to see.
System change, not climate change

Demanding, impatient, spoiled, bad at communicating — allegedly these are the character traits of “Generation Y”. Originally used in 1993 to describe children born between 1980 and 2000, the label has been featured in the media quite a lot lately.
