Reminds me of some stories I have heard of two lads and many different pubs and clubs in the Greater Melbourne area.

Can you picture Pad and Tism, both picking on Babes at the Palais while some masked band of school teachers are on stage making twits of themselves?

Yep brings back memories
But most times it was borderline on who was making the twits of themselves

The Issue
Workers across the nation have gone out on indefinite strike over what they claim are substandard wages in the Basket Weaving industry.
The Debate
1. "We are the backbone of this country, and we demand a fair wage rise!" says union leader Al Wu. "I don't think a 20% increase over two years is too much to ask. Unless the government forces employers to give us our due, we'll shut this whole industry down! Let's see how well Jibbtopia's economy manages without any Basket Weaving, huh?
[Accept]
2. "We pay our employees very generous wages," says employer representative Billy-Bob Washington. "Especially when you consider that without us, they'd be OUT ON THE STREET. Hear that, you scumbags? OUT ON THE STREET! Anyway, my point is, if you cave in, you make our entire industry uncompetitive. You can't do that in the global marketplace. It'll hurt the whole country. The best solution, economically speaking, would be to relax industrial laws and allow us to fire troublemakers on the spot."

The Government Position
At the moment we say, let them sweat.....
But this an important industry and the workers should be happy

The People's Republic of Jibbtopia is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed population of 18 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 36%, but much higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is led by the Basket Weaving, Gambling, and Cheese Exports industries.
The nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, the tenet of free speech is held dear, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, and military spending is on the increase. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Jibbtopia's national animal is the three toed tree sloth and its currency is the smeg.Comment

The Issue
Scientists using cloned human embryos for research are on the verge of a medical breakthrough.
The Debate
1. "It's really very exciting," says lab head Pip Bush. "Until now, we've kept very quiet, to avoid being targeted by lunatic fringe groups who for some reason think it's wrong to clone human embryos. It's too early to promise anything, but we hope that one day we will have genetic cures for a whole range of debilitating illnesses. I certainly hope the government will support our work."
[Accept]
2. "Well, if you have to be part of a lunatic fringe group to object to this barbaric practice, I'm a lunatic," says placard-waving protestor Dave Dodinas. "Of course it would be nice to cure these unnamed diseases, but at what cost? They're messing with the sanctity of human life. It's wrong, and the lab should be shut down immediately."
[Accept]
The Governments possition on this is leaning heavly to option 1 as we can then look forward to an army for 7ft10in men who only answer to the name Jibbs....
but still input would not be looked overComment
