That's just question time that they are so rowdy, and that's the only part the media ever shows us.

If someone else installs a cable dish and it interferes with your reception, that would most likely constitute nuisance. Yes, you'd definately have civil remedies under trespass to land and goods, and it'd probably be a crime under malicious property damage (s195 of the Crimes Act). Though you'd...

Ah really? That's interesting That one aint gonna happen :P

"do i have a case?" clearly implies legal discussion, not moral discussion :P

How dare you slight lady Jane!

If by environment you mean global warming, expenditure of resources/fossil fuels, and other major worldwide things then it is quite important to me. If by environment you mean saving the dingos or removing weeds from the local forest or some such triviality, no bloody way. However I do...

They just place far less priority on it however.

You could just try and sue the store owner for negligence. Normally you would also go after the manufacturer under the TPA, however since they are overseas that would prove difficult... international transaction law principles may apply there.

Speed cams are strict liability - generally there is no right of reply. However, you can write a letter to them asking for it to be waived based on a long history of good driving (ie. no previous offenses in 10+ years or some such), and any other pertinent reasons - like the one you...

Latham was not experienced or clever in his strategy. Beazley seems by far a more cunning, intelligent person (you probably didn't know that he has a phd in philosophy), and is far far more experieced than Latham, who, let's face it, comes across as not being able to organise himself out of a...

If you read closer, you will see that I did not say I didn't like the policies per se. But it doesn't matter - "Costello's economic policies" aren't the basis of the Liberal party anyway. If indeed our society is "stuffed," I think the correct view is that certain other people's contribution to...

For it to be unconstitutional, it must conflict with the Constitution, so if you care to point us in the direction of the relevant section? You could at least say "the vibe" :P I agree with this completely. The case is Melchior v Cattanach, although it wasn't contraception... I think it was a...
