------------------
I get up in the evening and i ain't got nothing to say,I come home in the morning,I go to bed feeling the same way,I ain't nothing but tired,Man i'm just tired and bored with myself,Hey there baby,I could use just a little help.

May day is the day for the workers of the world to unite.....it is not an invitation for all the toss bags to join them. Piss off and find your own day. You have no right to take the workers day. You lot are the antithesis of workers.

As you know I will be in melbourne at that time & would love to join in, I will get the details from you later. I haven't heard of anything like that happening in Perth but hope there is something being done in every state of Australia. It is time to overthrow the greedy & give back this world to the workers & the innocent victims of our capitalist society.

Bah humbug, I'm off to work to make more money!!!!!

perhaps if the downtrodden and unemployed spent the half a day looking for a job they would be better off.

people in Australia complaining about the struggles of the "working class" should take a look outside our borders and be grateful.

I suggest then that all of the people work for half the day for a charity or environmental group...raise some funds to give to some chbildren in Africa...closing off Melbourne streets and having a festival is really going to be appreciated by exploited workers in SE Asia or stop logging in the Amazon.....nonsense.

And if you really want to do something for the environment, don't have children and plant a frigging tree.

When don't those groups protest ?Its all they ever do.
Religuos groups protest whenever anyone farts in this world.
Its funny how you never hear from religuos groups when a priest in convicted on child molesting.

Enviromentalists are just a bunch of unemployed drug addicts.

How can you go - oh of course you'll probably take the day off - if you work - and then drive your clapped out old Holden, chugging out as manny flourocarbons into the environment as you possibly can, before sucking in a couple of durrys and then sucking in copious amounts of beer while preaching about the good you want to do to the environment.

For once I am with you TT - DAMN HYPOCRITES.

Get educated and make a difference where it counts - and live like you mean it.

No Farmers = No Handouts to Whingers

 

[Asgardian]

What a horrible sight, all the whingers, w***ers, wowsers and bludgers in one place.

This is Australia, so by all means, have your festival, enjoy your day, exercise your civil rights, ........... but do it somewhere where you will not be violating the civil rights of others who do not wish to join you.
Or are you the only people allowed to have civil rights, are you a group that is entitled to drown out contrary opinions, are you a group that is entitled to incite public disobedience?

Is the rally going to be similar to one held in Melbourne last year where they had to close Crown Casino and people were throwing things at Richard Court's car?

I'll think I'll stay at home and perfect my apathy.
