Congratulations to Boycott Workfare and Keep Volunteering Voluntary. I only wish there were similar organizations in Australia.

Lili's question for the day
If Australia is a socially progressive country in which women have equal rights and educated white males are victims and political correctness runs riot, why did Michelle Payne feel the need to tell misogynists in her industry to "get stuffed" during her victory speech as the first female jockey to ride a winning horse in the Melbourne Cup?
