I shall simple repost my comment on Enoch’s blog, who also does not think very highly of the retrograde changes.

It is god damned atrocious. It’s increasingly apparent we went to a third-??rate institution, and it shows up in everything they do: the quality of education, the quality of facilities, the relationship between the governing bodies of the uni and the students, and now the barely-??tepid effort they put into their website.
Who the hell thought it was a good idea to have the logo jut ting out to the left? What is this meant to represent? That if you want to achieve some thing, Sydney Uni will jump out of left field to block you?
Why is there is logical grid or spacing to effectively man age the masses of informa­tion? Why is it so boxy? Why is the typography so bad? All-??in-??all it looks like some “designer” spent a couple of hours trawling the 1990s inter net for some “cool scripts” and hacked together a Frankstein’s monster.

And this is after a very promising brand ing pitch book that actually looked like it was going to unify the hitherto haphazard brand ing strategies. I’m really disgusted. I fully expect Sydney Uni to have slipped down the rankings in the next decade, all the while funnel ling massive amounts of corporate money into its coffers.

Perceived superiority on matters economic is their final strength, and the conflicting goals are clearly evident in the policy. The Coalition needs to pile on the largesse without looking reckless. What they’ve ended up with is a relatively modest $30 billion handback over the next half-decade. Such a figure will be easily offset by continued strong economic growth and increased company and other revenue receipts.

What should be frustrating to policy purists across the country is the clear lack of interest in actually reforming the tax-welfare system. The problem of oppressive effective marginal rates of taxation for those moving from welfare to work remains unaddressed. Further the tax-free threshold is set to remain at a pitiful $6000. Raising this threshold would deliver an across the board tax cut that maintains the progressiveness of the tax scales, and assists low income earners the most. Instead, the Coalition continues to abuse the low-income tax offset (LITO), taking people’s money, giving it back at the end of the financial year, and calling it a tax cut. It should be clear to everyone that tax reforms are more than fiddling with the scales. Reforms must be designed to target a broad base, so that rates can remain as low as possible. Beyond that, regulatory burdens need to be lifted so that compliance costs and hours can be minimised. The 2007-08 budget introduced the very sensible innovation of pre-filled tax returns. Much more can be done.

If the Coalition wants their perceived superiority on economic management to morph into an actual superiority, they are going to have to put in much more robust policy work that can at least withstand the blowtorch of a university student.

Nobody knew how long it would take to clear, and passengers were just told to wait. It ended up delaying every inbound train on the line, and took over 3 hours to clear. Luckily, CityRail did manage to organise bus services to carry people to Kingsgrove station which has a train turnback facility, meaning outbound trains can terminate at Kingsgrove, and turn around and go back to the city.

Had the Revesby turnback facility, and the 4-track Kingsgrove-Revesby projects been completed, the breakdown would have meant far fewer delays. This is not going to happen until at least 2010. Better get a move along Mr. Iemma et al., people are getting really pissed off.
