The Greens and Portability

[Banker]

Members, I have just received this email regarding The Greens and Rachel Siewart.

Dear Sir Madam!

Can you kindly post this message on your website for DSP pensioners!

I would like to inform DSP pensioners that the green Senator Rachel Siewert has emailed me that the greens don't
like the restrictions the current Labour party has put on the DSP portability of now only 6 weeks 42 days!

I have protested about this to the greens party and have received a positive response from their Senator Rachel Siewert.

Please everybody can you help and contact Rachel Siewert of the greens party so the unjust law of reducing the portability of DSP pensioners can be overturned

Please Help thanks to all of you

greetings

XXXXX

[Banker]

Please members start writing to the Greens about this.

Thanks scallywag, I'm a fan of the greens, as you can see they're the only ones who actually seem to be listening to people like us, who don't see us as second class citizens in our own country. Labor is a letdown but that is to be expected from a now centrist party. Go the Greens!!

fingers crossed between PUP and the Greens we may get the numbers to block the changes hopeful...

No worries Ntd, The thing is the greens form policy BEFORE they get donations so I don't mind giving them a few bucks.
Crossing fingers and praying might make you feel like you have done something but you haven't. They need money just like the parties that sell invitations to form policy.
