• Jeff de Jager From “Letters to the editor”
  Heather Powell advocates well for a heated all-year pool in Batemans Bay as have the local groups for well over 20 years. We must insist though, that when their wishes finally materialise it won't be at the expense of losing a 50 metre olympic size pool.
• Terry McGee From “TAFE decline, who’s at fault?”
  Ann Sudmalis falls back onto the serial killer's defence. "But surely, m'Lord, my client isn't the only serial killer on the loose at the moment...." Bickering about who is letting down our youth most isn't going to get us anywhere. We need to know what's going on with TAFE and what the impact is going to be. Are students walking across to private VET providers? If so why? Is TAFE doing something wrong, or are the kids making the wrong decisions? Or are they going to uni instead of TAFE? If so, what is that going to mean in terms of skill shortages in industry in the near future? What other steps are being taken to head those off? Do we need a Royal Commission into education to get real answers, instead of ideologies?

  Grand news, Brad. The NDIS should bring a fair go to all Australians living with a disability, and who could argue against that? A brilliant innovation of the Gillard Government, with Bill Shorten as the driving force behind its creation, I understand. And such a patently good idea that it maintained support through the Abbott and Turnbull eras. If only we could have seen bi-partisan support on other vital issues, such as climate change, marriage equality, education, refugees, etc, etc. Perhaps with Malcolm starting to man up to the bully Abbott's bullying, we might yet see it. But it might have to await the Shorten Government....
