Action On MPs

Unemployment rate for Parliamentarians set to rise

Summary:

Michael Sanderson has had a very productive week in Canberra. The politicians or advisors he met with were genuinely interested and impressed with his call for a bank funded legal aid system. There are many other politicians who are yet to respond to his invitation. The calls for justice are getting louder. We would like you to call Canberra today - details below. We understand that it may be hard to make time in some cases but only a few minutes are required. Pollies that don't respond positively to an extended Royal Commission and the Equality of Arms issue really will have a hard time justifying their place in Canberra.

A BRN Call To Arms

BRN Advisory Panel Member Michael Sanderson spent last week meeting Members and Senators in Canberra. Michael is lobbying on behalf of bank victims and BRN for an extension of the Bank Royal Commission and also a bank funded legal aid scheme that will give all bank victims timely, proportional, and equitable representation in our courts.

He is back in Canberra this week and would like to see as many Members and Senators as time will allow, you can help.

If you have the time please ring your local member and state senators, that are not on the list below, on their Canberra number and request they or a senior advisor spend a few minutes to hear what Michael has to say on our behalf. Michael asks that you are respectful, due to the demands on Members and Senators, time for a meeting may not be physically possible.

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property - until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
