Well into the #TTTRally in Canberra, the gathering of supporters and the speakers outside parliament house are being well heard.
This forum is for people at Canberra and at outposts around Australia, to share what is happening, upload photos and show the public and those who were unable to make it out today.
Update - 22nd Nov 2016 (the day after the event):
On the day, in Canberra, it was all action, everyone was focused and we did not get a chance to upload commentary and images here, so please follow as we add information in the days to come! Thanks for your patience with this new website and your understanding that it is undermanned (for now). Pitch in and share!
The event went off better than any of those involved, attendees or not, could have wished for. There was a great sense of coming together, with a fresh start and a united voice and aim, for all the supporters, speakers, organisers, volunteers, supportive politicians and even general passersby.
The cry has been heard - there is a need for a full Royal Commission into banking in Australia. The Terms of Reference needs to have the teeth to - Expose the Lies, Stop Corruption & Deliver Full Justice and compensation to those who have had their lives, families and businesses destroyed or badly affected, through no fault of their own, by the Bad Banking System that (has so far) reigned supreme (too big to jail).
Banking crimes and dodgy dealings, including but not limited to; unconscionable conduct, fraud - including blatant document falsification, predatory lending practices, strong-arm tactics and elder abuse, have gone either unchecked, dealt with but covered up from public eye or dealt with very very lightly.
Suzi Burge (the founder, instigator and key organiser of the Tell The Truth To Turnbull Rally #TTTRally) kicked of the main program with her amazing and gut-wrenching story: "Commonwealth Bank of Australia SOLD my Family Home". With her very current situation looming the next day and a tight schedule of appointment within Parliament House, Suzi put the CBA on notice roundly! We cannot wait to hear her whole story and the outcomes as they unfold.
TV cameras (ABC & Channel 10) are rolling...

Well what a magnificent afternoon! We are right now hearing Barrister Peter King summarise the legal thuggery that harms customers of the banks. We have had plenty of media coverage.
Bank victims have had their voices heard. The call for a Royal Commission is now impossible to ignore. Senator Rod Culleton joined with us in a tribute to those bank victims that didn't make it. Suicide is at an intolerable level - Brett Fallon was a near miss and he is badly scarred. That didn't deter this down to earth Queensland farmer with his terrible suffering through the ANZ/Landmark debacle from travelling to share his powerful story.
More to come....
