The Freedom BudgetFor your consideration - a worldwide crisis deserved a budget of serious reform. A cashless authoritarian surveillance state is being set up in front of our eyes. There is no conspiracy. It's in the open now. It's time to take a stand. |

No More WarWar is a crime against humanity. On the 75th Anniversary of the end of WW2 it is worth thinking about what we have allowed the rulers to do to fundamental freedoms and rights. We are very much still living in a war economy. If the money used for war was invested in peace there would be no need for chaos and war. Follow the money and it is very easy to see how the people of the world have been robbed, lied to and abused by the 0.1%. |

Business Hibernation to stop COVID-19 chaosMorrison must lead effectively to save Australia from a massive health and economic crisis. Innovative policies such as the Business Hibernation will help. He must not play into the hands of vested interests that profit from Australian business collapses and rising, impossible to repay debt. The country is in grave danger if the wrong policies are put in place now. Who are the people and organisations advising Morrison? Once we know we can work out whose interests the policy prescriptions really serve. |

Pollies Will Pay For Cash BanIt's time to kill the CASH BAN Bill. Many pollies are too thick to realise the full story about caving into banker demands to kill off cash. Aussies want to live in freedom. Rights have been destroyed by pollies for decades - the Cash Ban is the final straw. Attacks on journalists & whistleblowers. Surveillance state & other attacks on privacy. Corrupt donations to parties. Unaffordable housing. Cost of living pressures. These are all signs of Australia going off the rails. Enough..!! Get active and put pollies in their place. They serve us .... not the bankers. |

The Takedown Of AustraliaIn a country as wealthy as Australia why are we seeing such horrific suicide figures - particularly amongst farmers, veterans and our young? Why are so many struggling with cost of living pressures - particularly housing? We are seeing such hardships because our economic system is structured to CRIMINALLY extract as much wealth as possible from the people and their country. Australians have noticed a gradual loss of core freedoms and rights as well as an attack on the nation's sovereignty. This is a worldwide phenomenon and it stems from a battle between competing criminal cartels using politics and finance as a weapon of abuse, exploitation and control. Try this thought experiment - think of Australia as a town run by an organised crime ring. AND then see what has happened to Australia - all is not as rosy as pollies and bankers told us for the last 30 years - especially before elections. |

Stand - Unite - Make It Right. The LaunchElection 2019 is our chance to show we are not falling for the two party run around again. Both major parties serve the elite. Both parties have had decades to make a big difference in bringing about a fair go for most of us. Right now most of us are sick of the games, lies and systemic corruption that infests two party politics here and in other nations. |

Hayne Covers Up More Than He RevealsCommissioner Hayne took on a role that deliberately limited his chances of successfully exposing the serious misconduct and crimes bankers are engaging in and profiting from. While there are some good suggestions for reforms in his report - he is really tinkering around the edges. While many in the media are keen to analyse what he has come up with - the real story is what he didn't look at. |

Emperors Stripped By RC's Rowena OrrBRN and the merry bank warriors came to Sydney for Round 7 of the Hayne Banking Royal Commission. CBA, Westpac and ASIC were in the dock. QC Rowena Orr stripped the Emperors of finance bare. It was painful. How do these characters even think they deserve to be paid multi million dollar salaries? |

America Loses 2020 ElectionWho thinks it makes much difference which party wins an election? Here we expose the harsh truth .... it's not a pretty picture but unless you know about the powers that run the show you'll keep hoping that your vote will make a difference in four years time. A two party structure gives the illusion of choice only. Real change comes with policies that returns power to the people. |

Perpetual AGM 2020Perpetual performs better than others so far during the 2020 virtual AGM season but still leaves some important questions unanswered. A great effort and report from our warriors Rita Mazalevskis & Craig Caulfield. |

CBA AGM 2020 - A Classic CoverupCraig Caulfield and the bank warriors keep up the pressure despite COVID restrictions. A proper Virtual AGM would allow shareholders to ask any appropriate question desired. There is no excuse for banks to filter and censor the discussion. The AGM is the best opportunity to point out bank problems. The bank boards and senior executives must be held accountable in a transparent fashion. Public scrutiny is essential to bring about reforms that will make the banks operate ethically and honestly. |

Securitisation Scam ExposedSome great research from Leon Ashby and the team on how the banks are double dipping to rip off clients after mortgages are bundled and sold. We knew it was bad but this just stinks. |

The Ultimate RevolutionThe author of Brave New World showed us how authoritarians of the future would use science and technology to control the masses. Propaganda, mind control and some well planned (and timed) terrorism does the trick. And by 2020 the tools have been well & truly researched and perfected. |

Deceitful Secret RevealedA very special guest editorial from three titians in the battle for bank reform. Why didn’t the Royal Commission into Banking address the serious issues of securitization and its high risks when this was raised in many submissions? Why do our Courts fail us so miserably with ridiculously unjust decisions when a Bank is involved? Why do governments allow these deceptive bank business practices? This article explains how the banks take advantage of their customers. |

Switch The HitAussies have done well limiting the spread of the virus. Had Prime Minister Morrison acted a bit earlier on closing the border and putting in place an effective business hibernation we could have begun ending the partial shutdown in six to eight weeks - perhaps sooner in some regions. Decisions and timing matter .... big time. |

It's Crunch Time - Freedom or Slavery?Australia faces a crisis possibly much worse than the Great Depression. We can only survive it by working together with a Prime Minister (and other political leaders) that are brave, honest and intelligent. Now is the time for the nation's leadership to level with us. What is the truth about the way our laws, economy and society are structured? |

Virus Crisis - Act NOWWe have put together a set of suggested policies that could help Australia survive and thrive during and after the COVID-19 virus crisis. It is a modified shutdown with powerful protections - including a business hibernation program - to stop bankruptcies and home losses. We have put it into the form of the sort of speech we would have liked to see from the Prime Minister a few days ago. What do you think? |

Morrison Is FinishedAt certain times a nation's leader may have to handle a crisis. It is only then that you discover if a leader is made of the right stuff. Morrison is not a leader. Australia's fire crisis has proven that. Here we explain how he stuffed up and why he will step down well before the next election. |

Senate Refuses To Publish Cash Ban SubmissionsThe government is playing dirty to try and ram through the Cash Ban Bill. The Senate refused publication of thousands of submissions including the one from Bank Reform Now. We publish it here and encourage you to get active. Albanese and his ALP also want to ban cash. The only way we can stop the Bill is to force Scott Morrison to scrap it. We need to split the Liberal and National parties. Some of their members are opposed to it and the Victorian State branch voted against it recently. Time to take a stand against pollies working in the interests of foreign powers and organisations. |

Liberal Party In Name OnlyFor decades it's been very hard to tell the major parties apart. They have both presided over: the trampling of freedoms and rights; Australia being sold off; the gradual destruction of the nation's sovereignty; and of course - the loss of respect for politicians and the institutions that are supposed to work in the people's interests. Here we come to the realisation that the Liberal Party has no interest in fundamental freedoms. We lay bare their hypocrisy and lies. It's not a pretty sight. |

Financial Crimes No Longer TolerableThis is a classic "truth to power" move from John Telford (VOFF) to Tim Wilson - Chair of the House Economics Committee. There have been too many financial scandals that have hurt hard working people who are saving for their retirement. It is no longer acceptable and if the government doesn't respond to reasoned discussion and peaceful protest then they will be held accountable. White collar criminals must be stripped of their assets and jailed. Victims of the Trio fraud are owed justice as are many others who have suffered from corporate criminals being allowed to get away with crimes by weak and compliant politicians. |

Protest Or PerishBRN CEO threatened with eviction from Parliament House .... for wearing a T-Shirt. Is this what has become of Australia? Have we forgotten about cherished rights and freedoms? Will the Speaker of the House Tony Smith adjust the rules regarding protest? If people can't protest peacefully what are their alternatives? |

Frydenberg Breaks The CodeThe Australian Banking Association released its new Code of Banking Practice on the 1st of July. This letter was to be sent to Treasurer Frydenberg a few days later but we decided to hang onto it while we monitored ASIC, Treasury and the banks. We have now sent this to the Treasurer and publish it here today because very soon the Senate will vote on a motion to disallow the new Code. Every Senator must vote to axe the code ..... here's why....... |

Justice Demands Action - Right NowThe finance sector has been shown to be operating in a way that harms customers and citizens in general. Criminals within the system have been allowed to profit from horrific abuses by not only bank CEOs and boards but also ASIC, the Bankers Association - and of course .... the politicians that they pretty much own and control. Everyone is affected - if people can't trust the government and the banks we really are done for. |

Election 2019 CommentaryElection surprise. The ALP has a real knack of choosing flawed characters to lead from opposition. Bill Shorten had baggage. The public never warmed to him or trusted him. Rudd's second coming relied on the party locking in the leader. What could go wrong? |

Australia Is Being RobbedWolves in sheep's clothing infest our government. Australia and its people are being robbed. Politicians and the major parties are facilitating the theft of our incomes, freedoms, resources and other assets. Farms, businesses, lives - all being stolen. Election 2019 is our opportunity to force new policies onto the agenda. Whoever wins any election must understand that they serve us ... not the party, not the elite and not themselves. |

ALP and LNP Must Both Be Sacked At Election 2019The major parties have failed. They have had decades to bring about genuine reforms to decrease corruption and increase the well being of citizens. It is now clear to most that our democracy is being abused. The major parties serve elite and often foreign interests. Dodgy trade deals. Selling off our land and businesses. Seeing housing become unaffordable ..... all signs of something being terribly wrong. It's time to break out of the two party double-cross. |

Election 2019: Choose Candidates Wisely - The ListElection 2019 has some bright and caring people running with minor parties or as independents. The ones listed here support new ideas. They care about our country being sold out and ripped off. They want crooked bankers jailed and their victims compensated. We need good people in government before it's too late. The two party charade has reached its use by date. Let's see them each get less than a 30% primary vote. There are plenty of good alternatives. Election 2019 - It's our turn to win. |

UK Courts To Expose NABNAB's previous CEOs Andrew Thorburn and Cameron Clyne have serious questions to answer over the bank's dealing in the UK. Clydesdale and Yorkshire banks have been found to be engaged in dodgy dealings and the Australian head office at the time was up to its neck in it. |

Election 2019 - The People Must Win ... Not A PartyThe major parties do not serve the people's interests. Many of us are sick of being lied to and robbed by politicians and the corporations that own them. It's time to unite and demand new ideas for reform and justice. The people have the power. At Election 2019 we really must use it wisely. |

Pollies Just Lying For Your VoteDo you think this time it will be different? How can we be sure that Scott Morrison and Bill Shorten are lying for your vote? Past performance is a good guide. BRN feels the only way to change things is to push independents and minor parties to support good policy. This will put important issues on the agenda. Once this attracts media attention the candidates in the major parties will realise their seats are at risk - there are no safe seats now. They and their parties too will then have to look at new ideas and policies. Voters are crying out for something different. The LNP and ALP will be struggling for a 30% primary vote. Voters have their boots and baseball bats ready. Election 2019 is our big chance for big opportunities. |

Step 3 - SUMIR - Triphasic Citizenship DividendIf properly implemented the three step SUMIR program would end poverty. Every person deserves a fair go to build a good life. Step 3 - The Triphasic Citizenship Dividend is the payoff. Pollies that support the elite can easily be identified - they will reject meaningful reform. They prefer business as usual - selling out the people and their country. |

Step 1 - SUMIR - Sovereign Wealth FundMany nations have a Sovereign Wealth Fund. There is no reason Australia can't have one which serves the nation's interests. Here we describe how it would look and how it would be funded. Including the repatriation of wealth stolen from the people by criminals aided and abetted by corrupt politicians. The problems allowing the theft to occur are systemic & structural and therefore so are the solutions. |

Step 2 - SUMIR - Sovereign Monetary SystemAustralia used to have a national bank - the Commonwealth Bank. It was the people's bank designed to serve the nation's interests. It was stolen ... and it was an inside job. People are beginning to realise that having a criminal cartel controlling money and politics might not be such a good idea. Time for a dose of structural reform before it's too late. It's not just money at risk - it's freedom and lives. |

Journalism Versus the Big BanksAdele Ferguson is one of the champions of the bank warriors. Without her gutsy investigative journalism it is quite likely that there would not have been a Royal Commission into banking. Bank Warriors support her call for a new Royal Commission into APRA and ASIC. |

CBA Was Not A Fair Legal PlayerWhen asked at the 8.3.19 House Economics Committee CEO Grilling whether CBA had been a Model Litigant CEO Matt Comyn replies "No." This is significant for people that were subjected to unconscionable legal machinations by the bank's lawyers. Cases such as those of Dr Robert Cooke, Tony Rigg and Rory O'brien are now able to be looked at freshly .... and Mr Comyn promised he would. We welcome his commitment. |

Bank Separation Now On The AgendaBankers thought they were off the hook with the handicapped Royal Commission but the Hayne inquiry revealed just enough for most informed people and journalists to realise that what wasn't exposed was more important than what was. The finance system is structured to fleece the population. CEC's Robert Barwick understands this very well. In an exclusive editorial for BRN he explains exactly why the banks must be broken up - vertically and horizontally. The Senate has been given the Banking System Reform (Separation of Banks) Bill 2019. Robert also shows how you can make a submission to support it ..... please do. |
