Nice article.

Welfare cards are not demonising people, it is making them accountable with the taxpayers money. The area has an abundance of work with people coming from across the globe to get fruit picking work there. Why shouldn't the residents in the area take the jobs.

Also the debate is certainly nasty. It's just a shame that all the nastiness is coming from the yes campaign, the side that is purportedly fighting for free speech but are attacking anyone who dares to speak against them.

Sort:  

Agreed Gohba - and now one of the YES campaigners has attacked Tony Abbott with a headbutt. This vote now appears to be very much about Free Speech.

Actually the guy that headbutted Tony Abbott wasn't from the Yes campaign- he apparently just seized an opportunity- but yes, the debate is getting nasty. And if the politicians hadv'e done their job by having a free vote in Parliament we wouldn't be in this mess.

We at Community News certainly agree with this observation Aussienews.
