Yesterday the Canberra Times kicked off a round of bedwetting about federal funding being cut off on account of a requirement for external examinations.

DON’T PANIC – yet.

It is entirely possible that the scaling test will be deemed sufficient, in which case it’s a non issue. But don’t pay too much attention to threats to fight all the way, without that funding we have no colleges under the busted arse federalism of the Howard Government.

Either way not much to get too excited about. Either it won’t happen, or it will and there’s nothing we can do about it.
