It's not you who will change the system, it is the system that will eventually change you...
I can't say I'm feeling very bad-arse or anarchisty today. I spent all day at work writing a pointed dispute letter to the NSW Electoral Commission for effectively disenfranchising me from voting in my local council election by failing to update my enrollment details despite my application over a month ago.
If that wasn't bad enough, I then emailed my local Greens member at Marrickville council and cc'd him the letter as an attatchment and asked if it would be appropriate if he could lend me his letterhead, because if there's one thing I've learned from being a public servant it's that letterheads pack far more of a punch than individual representation.
I know I know, gross.
We're through the looking glass here people...
