Why Move Forward when you can be Pens and not move?

In the 2010 Federal Election much has been made of Labor's Moving Forward slogan. Perhaps the Coalition's unofficial slogan, befitting their backwards-looking conservatism, is Stand Still. Be Stationary. That could explain why parents can claim for 'stationary' but apparently not pencils and rulers in the Coalition Education Tax Refund policy.


I hope Labor's Moving Forward package includes funding for much needed spelling and proofreading lessons for political staffers.
