For the second time in a month, a sandwich has been thrown towards the Prime Minister during a visit to a school.

A salami sandwich was launched towards Julia Gillard as she visited the Lyneham High School in Canberra this morning.

Ms Gillard was visiting the school to announce that the ACT had decided to sign up to the Government's Gonski education reforms.

Ms Gillard has laughed the incident off, saying the student who threw the sandwich must have thought she was hungry.

Earlier this month, a student in Brisbane was suspended when he was blamed for throwing a vegemite sandwich at the Prime Minister.

The ACT Education and Training Directorate says the school is currently looking into today's incident and is speaking to the student involved.
How can it be wrong to throw a vegemite sanger at the PM? That should be a constitutional right!

No-one is at all worked up about this. Being disrespectful to authority figures is a national tradition.
