Neville,It’s crunch time.

In just 24 hours, the Liberals will have another go at pushing their higher education bill through the Senate.

That means that once again students are one step closer to the very real prospect of $100,000 degrees.  For most students, it will mean a lifetime of debt. For some of them, it means they simply won’t be able to afford to get a degree.

I will not stand by and watch this happen.

We stopped these bills passing last time, and we can stop them again. It’s vital our Senators understand that Australians won’t accept the Americanisation of our universities.

So in the next 24 hours, let’s make it loud and clear.

Can you change your cover photo on Facebook to the image below and make sure everyone understands Australians don’t want $100,000 degrees?

Just right click to save this image and then upload it as your cover photo on Facebook. If you don’t use Facebook then you can forward this email to a friend.

It might not seem like much, but if thousands of us upload this picture in the next 24 hours, we can make our voices heard right up until the vote happens. Our research shows that changing your cover photo is one of the most effective ways of reaching thousands of Australians at once.

So today and tomorrow, as students across the country brace themselves for $100,000 degrees, let’s make sure thousands of these pictures appear across social media in the lead up to this vote in the Senate.

I will always fight to stop the Liberals’ $100,000 degrees and I hope you’ll join me too — it’s the only fair thing to do.

Thanks for standing with me on this,

Bill
