The issue of youth justice and punishment for crime is one that should be treated as a bipartisan issue by Government and the opposition in the NT Assembly this week.

Both major parties are united in their belief that SOMETHING has to be done to address the issue. Harmony rather than discord on the subject would confirm the commitment of our politicans to dealing with this escalating problem. We need a fix and we need it now, for our Territory is at the mercy of youthful offenders.

It seems as if too many (young ?)male staffers in Federal Parliament are prioritising lewd and vile behavioural displays as a part of their function.

They should all be booted! Maybe employment of staffers supporting federal politicans should not be available to anyone under 30 or 35 years. This might mean that staff employed have grown up!!
