It seems that the Liberals are now the new government in NSW. The Liberal candidate (Barr) won in my electorate. Labor went from 46 seats to 17 (so far). A certain indication I think that many thought it was time for a change of government. I certainly did, though I know I won't be popular with some of my friends. How long the Liberals will stay being government in New South Wales is another matter.
From the Sydney Morning Herald article:
The laws, which operate until the end of July, have the potential to make a crime of wearing a T-shirt with a message on it, undertaking a Chaser-style stunt, handing out condoms at protests, riding a skateboard or even playing music, critics say.
Police and volunteers from the State Emergency Service and Rural Fire Service will be able to direct people to cease engaging in conduct that "causes annoyance or inconvenience to participants in a World Youth Day event".
People who fail to comply will be subject to a $5500 fine.
Er, how did these laws get passed here in New South Wales!? There'll be a change of government next State elections - just you see!
