The referrendum in 2010 - opinions? Does somebody want to expand beyond the little bit of Rann quote I put there? Timeshift

I've expanded slightly. As it approaches, I suspect the referendum should get its own page. Rocksong 12:05, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Does someone know or can somebody update the 2002-2006 distribution of seats to display as what was voted in at the time rather than the aftermath of four years in government including two vacancies? Cheers :) Timeshift 15:02, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

OK, I've done that. I've removed the distinction between the start and end of 2002-2006, because nothing really changed. Terry Cameron had left Labor before the 2002 election, and the two vacancies (ALP Terry Roberts' death, Liberal Angus Redford resigning to contest the lower house) were only not filled because parliament wasn't sitting, so are of no real interest any more.

[edit] Hansard

How long does it typically take for hansard to be uploaded? This time yesterday, 29/08/06 was up, but 30/08/06 (where Kanck referred to methods of suicide) has not been uploaded yet. Timeshift 05:47, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't know why everyone is making such a fuss of both Kanck's folly and the subsequent newspaper beatup. Kanck's in it for a publicity stunt, and the media's in it because they're so devoid of real news. michael talk 06:06, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
Agreed. Timeshift 06:14, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

The first news segment on 7pm ABC news... reporting that Kanck's speech has been wiped from the internet. It passed the legislative council 10 votes to 9. This sets a censorship precedent... Timeshift 09:31, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
