Gah, I haven't talked about this because I'm not capable of being coherent about anything political at the moment, but: tomorrow the Hand Mirror is running a Pay Equity Faxathon. You can read all about it there, but the gist of it is that you and your co-workers fax Tony Ryall's office tomorrow to protest the recent scrapping of pay equity investigations. Pay equity is not something that we should invest in only when it's convenient for us: it's something that we have to invest in all the time. New Zealand women are currently earning $8.70 for every $10 men earn: it's not good enough, gang.
