Well. Now McLaren can stop putting their finger on the scale of 'fairness'

Why is the link not working.

Ok. Thanks

Genuinely asking, as I don't know where to find them, do you have a link to the pedestrian injury and fatality stats?

Whilst I have no problem with car speed limits, generally cars stay on the roads. Bikes (and scooters) frequently weave between footpath and roads, which does present an increased danger to pedestrians. So I can understand their motivations.

The studies behind "evidence-based practices" are not absolute. They're "This way is the most likely to be effective for the average student (most likely in the US)"

Given the lack of homogeneity across students (national, social, cohort & within class), I see them as suggestions to try out.

Just added this into my lessons on sqlite3. Making it easier to read the results.

These are traffic, they're effectively sanctions. You don't put sanctions on allies. Time to reconsider who are friends are.

It took a steady two term media campaign by Newscorp to succeed, and Labor made the mistake of falling for it rather than pushing back.

Just to clarify, what happened was horrible and the LNP's reaction is appropriate for a Government about such a horrible situation.

But I can't help but think there would be a very different reaction if the kid was non-anglo with a messy family background and from Logan.

You can add the Qld LNP into that mix. Elected on a campaign about whipped up juvenile crime, passed their "Adult time for Adult crime" law.

They're suddenly very quiet about it, now the first person to be trialed will be a Millionaire's son.

The LNP are just a sub branch of the Republicans.

Maybe because of her highly processed low-fibre reporting

Are you talking about actual progressives or right-wing commentators who claim they are progressives
