Scott Morrison Not Shocked By Bank Crimes

These two emails show you what we are dealing with. The first to the Prime Minister makes it clear about the crimes that are being covered up by the Hayne Royal Commission. The response which arrived three months later on the eve of the Hayne report is a form letter which makes no mention of the key issues needing attention.

Bank victims must be compensated

The Banking Royal Commission and many other inquiries have proven that many people and businesses have been damaged by unconscionable crimes and misconduct. Rory O'Brien nails it - it's a disgrace that remediation is apparently a low priority as far as the government and Commissioner Hayne are concerned.

Vote 1 - Pollies that serve the country

Trigger Warning - Harsh truth content ahead. Lies and other forms of propaganda aim to hide the shocking truth .... we are all being fleeced by a system that serves the elite. Our major parties work in the interests of the elite ... not voters and citizens. Election 2019 is when we can reset the system. Will you help?

NAB Bank - Grilled Or Toasted?

Mr Andrew Thorburn (NAB Bank CEO) made some very significant comments at his appearance in front of the House Economics Committee at the annual Big4 Banks review. Bank Reform Now provide some critical excerpts in this article. First, there are four cases the MPs were very concerned about seeing investigated and satisfactorily resolved - Rita Troiani (Wide Bay Bricks), Faye Andrews, Bill Mott and the Furneaux case.

Next, we have some important highlights. It is good to see that Mr Thorburn is committed to giving bank victims full and open access to essential files, documents and other evidence. We are also pleased that he wants to be held personally accountable!

Bank CEOs Face Tough Questions At Parliament

The House of Representatives Economics Committee will have to ask some tough questions now that the Hayne financial services Royal Commission has exposed some shocking abuses by the banks. And still .... it's just the tip of the iceberg.

The next Big Four Banks review dates are 11th, 12th and 19th of October. The public is welcome and BRN wants you to help make sure the committee members know what you want them to do. Ask the hard questions - hold the CEOs to account and see to it that the Royal Commission will be extended. These review meetings set the scene for the CEOs appearance at Round Seven of the Royal Commission. Justice will be done - if people join in now.

10 years since GFC. What now?

In the ten years since the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) - have governments done enough to reform the system? The horrific succession of scandals since then suggests not. Is the next GFC on its way?

Only by the Australian people uniting and demanding real reforms will we get the job done. Banking is organised crime on a grand scale. The finance sector has rigged the game so that they extract a disproportionate amount of Australia's wealth. It's time to bring it back.

ALP Now Supports Extended Banking RC

Bill Shorten has now publicly called for a turbocharged, longer and stronger Banking Royal Commission. He wants the whole crooked box and dice exposed. He wants bank victims properly heard. He didn't mention compensation, but he will.

This is good news - because now PM Scott Morrison has the opportunity to begin governing in a new way. A way not seen in Australia for a very long time. We may now see bipartisan support for policies that are demanded by the people. Over recent years the two parties have been in lockstep on issues many people were very worried about.

No-one can now say that the banks have clean hands. The RC has already shown serious misconduct. The next step is to have a proper Royal Commission, but we also want the government and opposition to prove themselves. Read on to see what they need to do next week.

People Power CAN Turn Parliament Around

The Banking Royal Commission and the recent political turmoil in Canberra have changed the environment we are dealing with. Up to now, the elite could rip us off with government support. This article shows what happens when ordinary Australian people wake up to how they are being abused and to the fact that they have the power to stop it.

Politicians enjoy the privileges and perks of office thanks to our votes and our money. Many of us are now prepared to turf pollies off the gravy train if they disrespect our will and Australia's interests.

As of right now, Australian Politicians don't have to be afraid of bankers not giving them a donation or a job when they leave office. They need to be afraid of us. Look what happened with less than six weeks of well-planned people power.

Ringmaster Turnbull Falling Off The Ball

A big thank you to Tony Abbott, Malcolm Turnbull, Peter Dutton and ..... Bill Shorten. Together you have insured the end of the two party dictatorship. If you thought the 2016 election was rough ...... your parties will be lucky to get primary votes above 25%. Aussies have had a gut full of corruption, crumby policy and big egos wrecking our country and abusing our people.

Sledgehammer Wielding Judge To Bring Justice

Bankers do not loan you money from deposits taken. They "create credit" with a fraudulent contract. Billie Rene' Powers will make history on July 30th in a Californian Court that will expose the criminal and abusive nature of banking. All countries and their people will see justice finally done.

How would you like banks to behave?

Banks operate in a way that causes great harm to individuals and nations. What would your life be like if they operated in a way that was fair, honest and harmless?

Imagine what an honest banking system would look like. Also think about this - just because something is legal doesn't mean it's not harmful. Our big problem is -  if we can't stop the illegal things banks do right now how can we hope to stop the legal things they do that are harmful?

Equal Legal Power - It's Time

Do you think a bank that has ripped you off would take you to court if you had the same legal fire power as they do? Even better ..... do you think a bank would rip you off in the first place if they knew you could successfully take them on in any court required? BRN contributor Michael Sanderson is asking you to put a submission into the Royal Commission. Success will see banks responsible for their clients' legal expenses. It's a game changer. He's written templates for you to use. If he gets thousands of new submissions Commissioner Hayne will have to extend the duration of the RC. Join in .... we only get one RC - make it work ..... much better than what Turnbull and his banker mates had planned.

Turnbull & Shorten Fail

Responses to the Bill & Mal Show have us arguing over taxes. That is not the real battle folks. It is a distraction. Just like arguing whether Turnbull or Shorten should lead. It's an illusion of choice. Propaganda has limited the spectrum of the allowed and acceptable debate. You are allowed to argue, discuss and fight about trivia. While the critical issue is nowhere to be seen or heard. The fundamental issue is not even on the table. But remember - the system is structured to fleece all of us and our nation. Genuine structural reforms would enable you to have the same, or better, standard of living with half the amount of paid employment. You could be working part time, job sharing, maybe only working half the year. And - you would have world class services - education, health, transport, proper retirements. It's all possible .... but a pollie will never ever show you the way. BRN wants to change the agenda and break the matrix ...... and with your help the unmentionable will be up for discussion before the next election.

Just for fun we present an oldie but goodie explanation of the the Aussie tax system below. Have a beer with Mal and Bill.

Budget Targets Hit

Once again a treasurer ignores the big picture and fiddles around the edges. Many of our young will never own their own home in part because bankers love big pay cheques and bonuses. So what does Morrison do? He cuts taxes on beer. The genius crows about hitting targets ... and he's right. But what target? Budget night is full of fantasy and fudged figures because the truth is just too alarming ..... and dangerous. We are going backwards while the pollies pretend we are going forwards. Debt levels worsen every year. Billions on education and way too many of our kids are having difficulties with literacy and numeracy. What gives?

Letter Of Demand

The previous big bank CEOs must deal with a letter of demand very much like the type sent to victims of predatory banking. Let's see them asked to drop in the keys to their homes and have their lifestyles turned upside down. The tables have turned now that the Hayne Banking Royal Commission has blown the lid on just how much crime and corruption exists in the financial system. Up to now senior bankers could run off with the loot regardless of how much damage clients and shareholders were left with. Decisions made by the CEOs decimated clients and cost shareholders millions if not billions of dollars and yet the bonuses and golden handshakes just flowed on regardless. It has been a boys club where insiders took parasitical pleasure from ill-gotten wealth. Actually - it's more like an organised crime ring ... but regardless - those days are over! The people will not tolerate a crooked finance system being protected by paid off politicians any longer.

Bankers Are Scared

Banks are scared of a Royal Commission ... but just not the one they think they will be facing. Will politicians and public servants who covered up bank crimes be held to account? Commissioner Hayne gets a shot at turning his Commission into something grand. Will he take it?  The banks are scared of something else too .... cryptocurrency ... our liberator?

Section 46 - Penaliser of the Tricky & Incompetent

The High Court has knocked out five Parliamentarians that were elected illegally but that's not all folks. There are penalties to be paid and the pollies are kidding themselves if they think this is over. Section 46 is more active than the pollies ... and High Court want to pretend.

Turnbull Captured by FRESH

Turnbull wants to further erode your core rights and freedoms. The facial recognition program now being proposed is not about protecting you. It's about protecting your rulers. Ask the people of Barcelona how much they trust their government. Regardless how much you trust politicians now ... in the future there will be a crook in power that will abuse laws that have trashed your civil liberties.

Are you ready to have your personal information and face spread over a wide network without your permission? Does being filmed on CCTV already make you feel insecure or vulnerable? The Australian government wants to take your personal privacy and freedoms away in the name of National Security. But do you know the risks and pitfalls this will open up for the average law abiding citizen? How secure do you think Australia's data banks are? Will you be one of the first to have your ID hacked and your identity stolen?

The Emperors Are Finished

The elite are draining Australia's wealth and the people's freedoms. They do it by using well paid functionaries. These lackeys or stooges could very easily be considered traitors when you realise how much damage they have caused to our people and country. The dual citizenship debacle and CBA bank crises are an opportunity for reform.

Cashless Pollie Pay Card

Malcolm Turnbull seems keen to stop drug users receiving taxpayer money. A great idea - the rorts must be stopped. Cashless cards given to all chemically impaired recipients of taxpayer funds is the fair way to go ..... as long as it applies to all recipients of taxpayers' funds.

Aussie Parliament A Shambles

The Australian Parliament has become an unworkable joke. Our Constitution has been disrespected and ignored. The politicians must face the consequences of their actions. We deserve far better from Mr Turnbull. He must close the Parliament down until the High Court sorts out this fiasco.

Section 51 - Our Power Over Money

A Republic must not weaken the protections we have against the authoritarian tendencies of government. Most people would opt for the status quo unless ironclad guarantees are in place to save what is good in the current system and add needed reforms that will enhance and improve our freedoms, rights and democracy. Section 51 contains powerful tools that allow us to control money. Don't let politicians kill off our ability to use them.

Section 44 - Protector of the Nation

Many Senators and Members of Parliament are sitting illegally. This means the laws they have passed are invalid. If managed properly we should be able to see political manipulation that has undermined our sovereignty reversed. The illegitimate politicians could be forced to repay all monies they and their offices have been paid.

Strengthen Your Mind - Prepare For Battle

Many of us have been badly damaged directly by bank malpractice and many more don't even know how badly they are being harmed.

If we can heal ourselves and each other we can take the villains on effectively. It's all in the mind. Here we present some wonderful resources and tips to help strengthen our minds and improve our mindset. This works - it is simple but not easy.

The BRN Gross Domestic Well Being Index

Have you noticed how much mental illness, drug & alcohol abuse, domestic violence and other societal ills exist in "wealthy" countries? There is a lot of unhappiness. Maybe the way we measure wealth and well being needs to be updated. BRN's CEO throws some ideas into the ring and wants some help developing them.

The Paper Chains That Bind You

Most of us are being exploited one way or another. The laws that suppress and control us don't seem to apply to the elite. The government and legal system serves the elite and deliberately works against our interests. Part of the solution is to see our fundamental rights and responsibilities re-established, cherished and respected .... but first we have to recognise the paper chains that bind us while leaving the elite free to do as they please .... at our expense.

Beware CUSO Syndrome.

Our society has an unhealthy attraction to "growth." All too often this growth is achieved by exploiting honest people that have worked all their lives to produce valued goods and services. The banking and finance system in particular has a very sordid track record of deception, misconduct and rip offs. Crime and corruption permeates our law, politics and economy. Time to clean it up - or you could be the next to be chewed up and spat out.

BRN CEO Pulls No Punches In the Fight against Bank Misconduct

People came from right around the nation to tell Mr Turnbull the truth about the banking system. In his introductory speech and other rally comments as MC, BRN CEO Dr Peter Brandson makes it clear to the bankers - the jig is up - and reparation payments are now overdue for many bank victims such as Faye Andrews, Rita Troiani, Dr Barry Landa and many others whose stories were told to the big crowd in Canberra.

Take The TTTRally to Your Local Member's Electoral Office

Thousands to rally right around the nation. At the very same time that many bank victims will be telling the politicians that have the decency to come and hear their stories outside Parliament House we have organised people to assemble outside every MPs electoral office to have petitions signed. The message will be loud and clear - The people want a Royal Commission, they want the rip offs stopped and they want the crooks jailed. We are fed up with the self serving lies. We don't want anymore phony committees, commissions or inquiries. Don't invite CEOs to lunch ... invite them over to serve a long term.

Two Parties Hammered At Election 2016

The Happy ALP Family Launches Its Bid For Election 2016

Promises, promises  - my, my - how these politicians make such great promises. What we need to see is great policies put into practice. Shorten can promise anything because he knows he won't win the election. Any politician can promise a Royal Commission - especially if he won't have to deliver it. The trick is to get fair dinkum one in place .... and that will only happen if the people join in with an effective grass roots campaign and take massive action at just the right time - and that time is just months away.
