Huckleberry Finn Labours: Slam Dunk Kiwi Teachers? Poem by Terence George Craddock

Huckleberry Finn Labours: Slam Dunk Kiwi Teachers?



enter 50,000 teachers
on strike over wages
just graduated teachers

claiming after completing
their entire teaching total workload
they are paid minimum wages

enter our hero Huckleberry Finn action boys
who know how to skill swing a paint brush
can earn $5 an hour above minimum wages

stepping off the riverboat can drive trucks buses
huge drivers shortage pays well above minimum wages
trades people tradies prosper party paid quality wages
