It was boring. Every single person who asked a question was an idiot except the guy at the end who asked what the point of the forum was if every one just wanted to discuss politics.
I forgot how stupid people are. *kicks those people*
Its a leadership forum! dont ask about politics!
NO ONE CARES

well i thought the political questions were very appropriate...its not as if the forum was actually about leadership...firstly it was about aboriginals, then about business, then about the environment and then about politics... so asking questions about politics is more than appropriate...

no it wasnt.
The forum was called Future Leaders. Erm hello?

Who cares what political party the speakers support, we are there to hear about their lives/careers/ their roles etc.

I liked the speakers.

settle down...i just thought there could have been a bigger focus on leadership...

the political questions were good...i thought a fight was gonna break out between that guy down the front and one of the panel people...i was sitting near him and he was making these comments all the way through the talks...it was pretty funny :)

What a waste of a fucking day. None of what anyone talked about had any relevance to being a 'future leader' whatsoever. The only thing that kept me from going insane from boredom was some hot chic who was sitting a couple of seats away ;)

Worst debates are between die hard lefties trying to prove how left they are and die hard righties trying to prove how right they are. It's disgusting. It's like a bunch of rich cokeheads sitting around trying to prove who can snort more in an hour.

:D :D I remember the email of that old gandma who was hosting the hole thing. Im gonna tell her exactly what I think of her forum.

And did anyone notice that old dude who worked there and was walking around that looked like Anthony Hopkins.

The highlight of the day "How aborigine are you?'

i thought it was kinda more careers orientated rather than leadership. It was ok...not really worth the 4:24am train and the cranky newcastle cityrail workers, but was ok overall.

i thought it was all pointless no revelance to leadership wat so ever! very disappointed! also disappointed with the quality of audience... no hot guys, none that i could see .. shame :( and i dont know wat u guys are talking about none of the gals were that great. except one we saw who the guys began referring to as "goddess" she was honestly gorgeous but the rest were mediocre.. no i didnt check out the girls but this is from the boys perspective.

hey give the chicks some props.... i think that'd probably be the biggest group of ppl shes talked to before [i don't know but i'm assuming so...] so it took guts for her to get up there, and she delivered it fantastically minus the deep breathing.

hehhehe i left at the morning tea break i thought it was a waste of time, it just seemed like a waste of a day. and instead i had some fun :D LOL did half the ppl leave in that break too???
