Anti Union homies

Schools as you know are very open about what it is they're going to teach children before enrolment.
The teachings of a CCC directors personal opinions/political views/union petitioning/business protest marches as they arise is a bit like having teachers or a principal of a school decide what they teach as they go along and outside of a curriculum, as they see fit, just send home a permission slip.
Inapproprate and kooky not just for that reason but because well... they're 3 to 5 years of age, and it's common sense to stick to a standard learning program and leave that stuff to the parents.
If Ms deSouza wants to pay her staff more money then she can instigate increased wages and increase her customers' fees to cover the wage rises. Business 101. However Institutionalised Childcare is a socialist construct (yes, I was child-bearing age in the 1970s when the idea was first mentioned in Australia) and it is therefore expected that the Govt pays the majority of the fees rather than the consumers of the service. Christians believe in children being raised by their parents, not outsourced to Govt institutions. The manager of the Centre would be an employee of a larger organisation, interestingly a Christian organisation - who are historically adapt at paying the lowest wages they can possibly get away with and make some Capitalists look downright generous.
Exactly...If you want to educate a heap of little pro-union clones then fund them yourself...don't ask hard working tax payers to fund the costs of brainwashing them...
I've got to say that learning to write letters to politicians can be a valuable lesson. There have been two occasions where I have done just that to air my concerns about local issues. Surprisingly on one of those occasions I was able to effect a change in a Government Departments plan that was going to adversely impinge on my business. That story also made it into the local paper.
The difference is you wrote the letters (unlike the little clones in the article), and presumably not when you were aged 4 or 5. Writing a letter to a politician, or any other party for that matter, is not dependant on having a union swayed upbringing...
Pollies will do anything to get a vote . Someone I know, with full private health cover, pushed for an operation through the public system (which is her right). She was a real squeaky wheel and didn't want to drive to the hospital herself. She pushed to have it done more locally, but was told no. She wouldn't drive to the hospital, but drove to the local state member's office and he organised for someone to collect her and drive her to the hospital and then pick her up the next day .
There are people with "real" needs, who really cannot afford private cover and/or cannot get into a hospital as quickly as she managed it by being such a squeaky wheel. This person could have paid for a taxi, could have actually (shock, horror) driven herself there, but instead some poor volunteer got to do it. She tried to weasel me to do it, and I was going to (but was spitting about it privately), but our car played up (thankfully).
So, I'm guessing the politician would have seen right through her but arranged a lift there and back for her knowing she would be voting for him.

.There's nothing wrong with airing YOUR concerns. There's nothing wrong with roping in adults to do it with you either.
But leave other peoples children out of it. I doubt very much too if parents know the exact content of what is being taught if it's the unregulated political teachings of an 'activist'.
It's one thing telling OLDER students that writing to politicians is an option one has to voice their opinions (in the context of a non politically motivated subject) and another to drive your point using small children for your own personal gain.
The permission slip nor political issues you agree with (it could be anti boat people, or anti union stuff, etc) does not change this.
I don't know how old your children are or if they used CC but switching CCC is not so easy or convenient.
I would be furious.
This is 3/4 of the root of the problem. Hopefully this will change markedly in the future.
Come September, it might be like 1/4 of the problem, all sitting in opposition.
well, I guess natiionally there may be enough left over to fill a Coaster. ( 22 seat Airport stylem mini bus)
In QLd at the last election the remnants of the previous gov had spare seats in a Tarago (9 seater people mover)

My job involves situations where parliamentarians are invited to events with large numbers of their constituents. Normally these events enjoy support from all sides of politics in an apolitical bipartisan manner.
At the moment it is crazy political (both sides) - ive never seen anything like it. I cant wait for September for all the shenanigans end.

Your client was lying to you. No labourer I know is on that kind of money.
Does that include Abbott and his 2 cronies lying about yhe number of illegal boats this week?
Just because you don't know of any labourers on $70k a year don't mean it ain't so...I know of such on greater rates than these. I am on a job at the moment with an $8.00 per hour site allowance. This is around $14k a year just on site allowance alone
Maybe you should consider expanding your circle of associates before calling anyone a liar
70k to shovel dirt? my bricklayers labourer is on $220 net per day and bricklayer makes 80-100k a year and works 6:30am start finish 4pm 6 days a week.
a lot of people throwing numbers around but reading most peoples post average wage on this forum is 300k & driving a 10k car.

No. That is completely different to one eyed, blind supporters who place all their face in their team and unable to comprehend that they would ever lie - and if they do there is always going to be an excuse
This is merely another act in the same long play.
