2013 Federal election - Rudd sets date as 7th September

Education is actually a State function.
Tell me something: why was Garrett going there?
To mark some test papers?
He was there to make political statements
How about letting the little beggars get on with learning.

By the way, Julia, abortion is actually a State issue as well.
Blue ties are a personal issue (I'm wearing one today)

[Bully]

Garrett has been banned from QLD schools whilst he promos this gonski education plan, from the state education minister for QLD

If you think that is good politics or even good policy then aren't we going to be so lucky when we have a federal coalition government later this year.

I'd love to hear you share the same opinion if the SA government blocks federal coalition ministers from sites within their ministry in SA.

Jump off your high horse for a second champ.....
Maybe ask the Queensland educational minister on this topic, and second, i dont live in SA, so why would i care about the question you asked?

Okay, how would the Queensland Minister for Education feel if he was not allowed into various schools in Queensland??

why would the state education minister be told he cant enter schools in his OWN state?? is it the day for asking silly questions ? im sure the education section is "run" if you want to call it that way from the state etc

Well, why would the Federal Education Minister be told he can't enter schools in his OWN country.
You pretty much have shown yourself how silly the action of the Queensland Coalition was. Both Federal and State governments are responsible for management of the school system.

again, ask the QLD government on it

WA Labor saying they didnt want/banned julia from the state when the recent election was run......

cheers

Ms Gillard spent quite a lot of time in WA prior to the election. What the heck are you on about??

During the Election Campaign the ALP minders in WA are reported to have told the Federal ALP Caucus that they did not want Julia Gillard visiting WA or campainging with any of their members as they felt it would do their election campaign damage.

So was Kevin Rudd on TV this morning!

And the states do run the education system and even under Gonski would have to put up most of the money.
That's why they are reluctant to sign up - the federal money has strings.

During the wa election the members for the labor party in that state told Julia to keep out. If you don't believe me then check it out.

Did Anna Bligh not ban Politicians from schools in QLD during the election campaign?

Education is both a responsibility of the Federal and State Governments, hence why we have both a Commonwealth Department of Education and a State Department of Education. The Commonwealth has more power in Education than the states, simply because our constitution states that in areas of concurrent powers (such as Education) the Commonwealth law will always prevail.
An example of this was in the Franklin Dam case where the Tasmanian State Government wanted a dam built but the Commonwealth was able to stop it.

Under the law the way it is, the Federal Minister of Education carries more weight than the State Minister of Education.

Not sure of the relevance of this point and banning the Federal Minister of Education from his worksite is btw.

So its ok to ban the prime minister, but not ok to ban the education minister. You say " not sure of the relevance", not sure where you are coming from. If the prime minister is banned , the leader of the country, from a state election, i dont think that looks very good (mind you even worse from her own side in that state). so yes, there is relevance, in your words

cheers

Maybe you can attend the next labor meeting and discuss it.....

[bulldogproud2]

The big difference is that Ms Gillard was never banned from visiting Western Australia whilst Mr. Garrett has been banned from visiting his own workplace, schools.

if yu want to continue to believe that, then go for it. I cant change your thoughts.

She was told not to enter the state WHILST the STATE election was being run. Now if that is not along the lines of "banning" someone in your world, i dont know what is.

In my world, banning is actually banning!!
Banning means, according to the Webster Dictionary:

www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ban‎

'to prohibit especially by legal means'

Has Mr. Garrett been prohibited by legal means of visiting schools in Queensland?? YES

Was Ms. Gillard ever PROHIBITED by legal means of visiting Western Australia?? NO

Quite simple really.

Im sure you will find the word "banned" or "banning" in this article

From that article "He said banning her from WA had been an election blunder by Labor"....(from the labor state leader of WA).


cheers

[RustyCage]

Well they are two very different things.

Maybe the QLD govt just don't want Garratt promoting the benefits of Gonski

[bulldogproud2]

So, neither you (Bully)nor Joe Spagnolo are good at English

The words were never attributed to a quote from the leader of the WA Labor Party, just of the journalist.
I repeat though: Julia Gillard was never BANNED from WA. You and I both know that.

There is a huge difference between deciding that you do not want the Prime Minister to campaign with you for an election and actually banning a person from doing his job by not letting him visit his workplace.

Actually, you will find that Colin Barnett is not the Labor State Leader of WA but the Leader of the Coalition btw!!

Again, if you want to believe that , then it is your choice.
