The budget handed down by the Abbott government on May 13 is a decisive political event for the working class, students and youth. It marks a major intensification by the financial and corporate elites of their assault on all the rights of the working class. This offensive, begun by the former Labor government, parallels the social counter-revolution imposed across Europe and the United States.

This back-to-basics workshop is the “Aussie Politics 101” they should have taught us in high-school.
Everyone welcome: bring friends!
To participate in democracy, we must understand how it works,
but most of us only have a vague knowledge about our political system.
Come and explore:
∙ How Parliament is structured.
∙ The difference between state / federal Parliaments.
∙ How democratic are our elections?
∙ Do we have “proportional representation”?
∙ What does “balance of power” mean?
∙ How does preferential voting actually work?

Think you get it?
