Wowsers

In the old days, the thought police were called wowsers and blue bellies. The average Australian was considered to be a larrikin because of his disrespect for authority. In the past, the larrikins have always won the day over the wowsers.

So what has happened to us? Why are we having this conversation? If we don't like the regulations they should be changed because we are the people and the government/bureaucrats work for us, not vice versa. The campaign can start with a refusal to wear hi vis jackets. There is no law against it!
