Elections not Erections

In the words of the great Robert Simms with a Federal Election looming next year its time to start talking 'Elections not Erections.'

Couldn't have put it better myself!

On that note its probably a good idea for people to start familiarising themselves with Labor's new Frontbench. If Labor wins next year it will be important to know which of these that we will need to be lobbying. Not to mention we want the Labor Party to back the 'Voice for the Future: The National Student Agenda' Campaign as part of their election policy.

Julia Gillard- Shadow Minster for Industrial Relations (Should be linked closely with the 'Your Rights at Work' Campaign)
Peter Garrett- Spokesperson for Climate Change and the Environment
Stephen Smith- Shadow Minister for Education and Training

Will be the three important ones for the 'Voice for the Future' Campaign- the details of which I will be posting shortly.

Next year is all about the Federal Election- Australia needs a progressive agenda and Students need to be at the forefront of this!
