Actually guys and gals we don't legally have the choice not to vote (unlike the US.) If you are over 18 you have to register and vote otherwise you can be fined... Of course you can just not turn up and risk the fine, don't think it's very much from memory..

Also even if Mz Roberts was ousted do you think the Hoon laws will change or disappear???? Doubt it somehow...

Brett, Your correct on both accounts, most likely the law would stay in-place, but doesn't mean we have to leave the bitch there to come up with other ways to make our lives worse. She has plans to add additional restrictions to the anti-hoon laws, including exhaust note and loud music:(

some religons it is their choice not to vote - and i was brought up in one of those religions (yes a long time ago)

I know legally it is required and if they do catch up with you - you do get a fine ..... but usually if you write a letter explaining your religious beliefs they let is slide.

And as Magic1 said, 100% of you will be voting against her since she is a minister for labor.

Vote for liberals, send Colin Barnett letters regarding it as HE is the one to gain from it (since he is the opposition)

The most worrying part about it is Michelle Roberts is trying to pass an amendment which allows people to dob in hoons, rather than it only being up to the police who physically witness the event.

Another scenario: Mr X's girlfriend leaves him for Mr Y. Mr X is PISSED, phones up the police and says he and his mates saw Mr Y doing a burnout in some carpark (with loads of old burnout marks to cover it)

Mr X has other people to back up his story; Mr Y is screwed.

This is a PATHETIC idea (why are we paying them good money to come up with such spastic responses to hoons????), and the current hoon law is a joke when it comes to, as said, peoples 3rd chance. Of course they should stop, but in the heat of the moment they might think they can get away with it, so will try and drive dangerous ly to do so.

Out with Michelle Roberts.

By the way, a mates car got stolen last week after the theieves did a ram raid on a bottlo ... got caught up in a police chase and were throwing bottles at the police cars. They got away because they drove up a one-way street and the police weren't allowed to pursue. If it's as easy as that to get away from police, then this is going to be an added incentive for the perpetrators to just run.

I really dont think voting should be compulsary anyway.

Lauren, that's something the Liberals would also like. Basically because political apathy is far more prevalent among the less socioeconomically fortunate.

If voting were no longer compulsory we would not get the same result with less votes. The result would be totally different.

I'm not, because people who have no idea what's going on with the governments (most of Australia) generally don't follow politics

Therefore if it weren't compulsory, then only the ones interested in politics would vote, and we'd have a government whose policies are most important for society, rather than the one who has been in the least embarrassments (which they'll read on the front cover of a newspaper and therefore sway public opinion)

That would mean that the government would only represent the few that voted, as much as I hate that dumb people are allowed to vote, I still think it is the better system.

Without wanting to get off track, I'm voting against labour cause I don't want this bitch to have any more say:D

I agree there's people out there that have no idea who or what they are voting for anyway.

What other countries are there where voting is compulsary? i dont think theres that many left.

I think we should all enter a dictatorship and make me your leader! :)

if that makes any difference to the laws she's put in place i'd be very suprised - she'll just be replaced with another bitch ...... i dont think whoever gets voted in is really interested in the minority groups and what they want .... they just want to appease the bigger groups like families and the older generation that makes up most of the voters by painting a picture that the youth of australia is out of control with their hoon cars and going into clubbing areas at night ..... and they are going to put a stop to it for the good of all. :)

Politics is just marketing ...... its like macdonalds series of ad's trying to paint a picture that its healthy to eat maccas ...... the politicians are trying to paint a picture that thier poisonous laws are just in the countries best interest to swallow.

So Niz what you are sayin is dont vote for females?

LOL male politicians are even bigger phuck ups ..... example: George Bush

In fact i think politicians are a species of their own from a far distant planet to make our lives miserable.

Up comming election is federal not state, state is at least 6 months away.

If you want to do something target public servants who think these policies up, or police commissioner etc

Michelle roberts is just a figure head puppet.

Liberal labour wouldnt make a lick of difference with a law like this.

breathe in breathe out drive sanely in sane areas.

a petition with 50 000 names would be alot better as an idea to show the idiocity of these laws

Tom

Agreed, A petition should be done now, shown to Ms Roberts, if nothing is done (likely) then if Liberal gets in in the state election then show it to them, then there would be a slight chance of getting it changed, more chance than if Labour stayed in. Worth a try.

I was having a walk at lunch time, and some tool in an ALP shirt was delivering ALP flyers for Kim Mackies "Making a difference in Swan" on a scooter. This dick proceeded to break almost every know road rule in delivering this junk. Where are the cops when you need them. Be funny to see one of there own being done for his hoonish antics:D

    • My 3.8 kW system (when new, not so much nearly 20 yrs later) will do 21 kWh per day (best few months of the year), and that's with an afternoon shading issue. So it really could/should be able to do maybe 24. So a 6.6 kW system probably cannot fill a 40ish kWh battery from scratch, but then it is very unlikely to ever need to. Let's presume that you use 10-15 kWh during the day and stash the rest. So long as the battery isn't drawn down below ~50%, it'll be fine. And that draw down presumes using 20 kWh overnight, which is a reasonably heavy draw. So that seems reasonable. The 40kWh will be good for extended outages, and very bad days where you get almost no generation for a day or two. Might struggle to top it all the way back up after it gets pulled all the way down though. I'd think you'd probably want about 10 kW of panels to make life a little easier, wrt keeping a 40 kWh battery charged. But then....does it really need to be at 100% every day? Probably not.
    • Am I wrong in thinking that there is a hell of a lot of battery storage for a 6.6 feed into it Your battery is around 4 times bigger than the battery that is going into my place in a week, but I have nearly twice the feed Will the batteries actually ever get fully charged? School me on the science bitches   
    • Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?
    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
