Very good point, it will be interesting to see if our rights of appeal are affected and whether 'cancelled' means 'cancelled forever'.
looks like they are opening up a can of worms.

Andrews said:-
“I am interested in resolving this growing gap between pension payments and Newstart payments. Obviously we would not be doing anything that changes arrangements for current recipients.”
i highly doubt anything that they say. |

They are opening up a big can of worms and they are gonna wish they didn't try to fix something that's not already broken. |

They are opening up a big can of worms and they are gonna wish they didn't try to fix something that's not already broken. If they try to move all us existing DSP's onto a lower new universal payment l hope theres large street protests or something and they are forced to back down or the senate will block it. |

Uniting pensioners to a common cause is always going to be difficult, just getting the message out would be tough enough (an ad in a Murdoch paper?) and then you have to deal with people who have very little in common.
Take it from one who knows.
Virtually everyone will want to wait, they will not believe it will happen to them, then the government will start picking people off a few at a time.
The best form of attack is refusing to accept this, to appeal every new "rule" at every level.
