Letter to the Editor

Please see the response I received from my Power Company today clarifying how the changes to Energy Concessions will apply. I then called my power company, Tango Energy to enquire if the new changes would directly impact my current Pension Card concession discount to my quarterly bills would be impacted. Their response was as follows –

Victorians were greatly relieved when this communist, former Premier Dan Andrews resigned. But his corrupt legacy will be felt for a generation

“You are currently receiving the Annual Electricity Concession, and also the Controlled load concession. As of the 1st December the Govt are no longer paying the Controlled Load Concession, and the Service to Property Concession. This means you will lose the Controlled load Concession. Over the last 4 Quarters, the total discount applied to your account was $58.94, or approximately $14-$15 per quarter. If you have any concerns or questions regarding the impact of these changes, or what assistance may be available to you, call the Department of Families, Fairness and Housing on ph: 1300 475 170″

I expressed strong concerns to my Energy Company saying this is just a “fiddling of the books” to save the Government’s budget bottom line, because they know that Concession card holders are the most vulnerable in the community and would be less likely to know their rights and jump through the Bureaucratic hoops to apply for available assistance. It is clear these changes have been made after the Government calculated they would lock in a budget saving year on year. And given Australia already has the lowest welfare payments of all 38 OECD countries, this is just the latest kick in the guts to the most vulnerable in the community.

  1. Many are now pensioners because of the criminal activity of dishonest financial schemes by banks, superannuation funds and financial advisors that were in place prior to the Banking Royal Commission. A percentage of today’s pensioners had their own asset and income streams until the vampires struck.

    Now many have nothing but the pension.

  2. Victoria is in hock up to its ears. Last I heard its debt was bigger than NSW and Queensland COMBINED!!!!

    It’s the same old story… They skyrocket public debt, the Money Merchants make a motza and the public ultimately gets a haircut in service; not to mention the eventual privatisation fire sales to the Money Merchants as “necessary” asset stripping of public ownership.

  3. Ah… Victoria! Australia’s very own Shangri La. Perfect yesterday, fkd today.

    And we stupid cattle still think it’s all good enough to ignore until we get to the Abilene cattle yards. Good luck from there on, folks!

  4. It’s not unexpected…I expect all state governments to do the same – and wind back all concessions to all dependent on governments for their income…
    I expect the pace to quicken as the roll-out of Digital ID, and cashless society (CBDC) approaches…

    No White Hats are coming to save us, folks. If you’re looking for White Hats, then put on your White Hat and get to work.

    Amen

  6. Nelle C said – “… we need to take our lives back from the govt criminal cabal and their agents…”

    Indeed we do.

    But in order to do so, we need to do so.

    IOW, SOMEONE SOMEWHERE has to actually DO SOMETHING.

    Otherwise they’ll just keep right on doing what they’re doing, marching in lockstep, grinding us all down into the gutter, taking our freedom and health and wealth and lives away from us, BECAUSE THEY CAN, and no-one apparently gives a toss.

    I’ve said it before and nothing has changed since then, about the only people I can see who are cohesively organising themselves to oppose the rolling mountain of Globalist BS are the Australia One crew and the Guru mob.

    No White Hats are coming to save us, folks. If you’re looking for White Hats, then put on your White Hat and get to work.

  7. Well this is how labor works they have come out now so we can see their treachery and they know with election fraud and skullduggery they can be pretty sure of remaining in power- pensioners used to be a force to be reckoned with come election time but as they doing this -not any more-also we need to wake up to the covid scam- covid 19 does not exist but covid cold and flu does -but as flu is not diagnosed, so medication not given – we need to get over the fear of covid,revert back to the past and get medication for it (if you can find a doctor to cooperate) never take the poisonous vax or go to hospital-first sign of a cold coming on take zinc and organic Vit C works a treat-we need to take our lives back from the govt criminal cabal and their agents

  8. I hate to change the subject but AnAL’s preventative detention regime (their words) rushed through parliament today has been finalised. Coinciding with what appears to be the outcome of the High Court’s hearing into the detainee preventative framework, this legislation is the ultimate thought crime. If they want to lock someone up all they have to do is think it. This is tyranny.

    A preventative detention regime will be just that and in case you’re wondering, Young Global Leader Clare O’Neil who’s just one of the 1400 YGL’s the WEF has strategically inserted in positions of power in 122 nations is all over this. As the WEF’s Minister for Home Affairs, you can see how locking people up for “wrongthink” is right up the WEF’s alley. So is treason.

    No doubt the public will be so outraged over AnAL releasing 170 terrorists into the suburbs to justify this madness they wont even notice.

  9. This has not hit NSW yet – but will! Does anyone know how to actually fight this? If so, please put it in the comments so those affected can exercise their rights! Thanks.

  10. brucebrod said – “… Labor are not the party they used to be, remember that next time the elections are on.”

    That particular horse bolted and the barn burned down about 20 years ago.

  11. After everything the Vic Labs have done this is just gratuitous bastardry. This is like psycho serial killer knocking off for the evening, coming home and throwing the cat in the spin drier.

  12. Why am I not surprised, Labor are not the party they used to be, remember that next time the elections are on.

  13. The screws are tightening!
    We live in NSW and went into the RTA to ask when fuel vouchers would be re-issued.
    We were told the govt. are no longer doing it.
    It was saving pensioners $250 a year.
    While in town we noticed two different disabled sites closed down.
    I wonder how many have gone around our city?
    It is part of the war on car drivers which the WEF and WHO are waging.

  14. Social security by Governments has always been an important destructive construct by the Zionist Communists agenda to pervade and destroy National identity.
    We will witness this in the future when ‘no jab equals no payments’. We have already witnessed this in the sale of our youth and the family unit.
    I am unable to comprehend the dimensional intelligence that constructed this program but it is here, now!

  15. I’m not normally stuck for words, but I’m afraid if I get going I’ll be saying so much as our country is not sold to the communists, changed the constitution, ruining farms and other industries, the list is a mile long. Australia isn’t the Australia we all knew and the sooner these snakes get out the better. Until then, we can only pray and work together and help one another, because we have no government that cares.

    – yes indeed! A lot of older folk expressed the same idea at the time and it’s hard to argue with.
    Who could ever forget who made the damnable decision to put untrained security officers straight from Covid Quarantine into the nursing homes that spread Covid there and killed 801 old folks.
    I’ll tell you who “forgot”!
    The entire cabinet of Daniel Andrews inner circle at the Coat Inquiry into it all. That’s who!
    None of those movers and shakers including Dan, Sutton or anyone else could recall.
    Even though that stretched their credibility to breaking point the fact is that anybody who has worked with govt knows that by law ALL decisions are made in triplicate. Two records on different programs in the system and one hard copy.
    And none of the lawyers or even the Judge questioned them on that.
    Everybody knows who made that decision that killed all those old folk.
    It’s clear that they don’t want to afford the health care and the pension these old folk have paid into all their lives so they’re just getting rid of them.
    It’s straight out of the Nazi playbook.
    Truely despicable!
    Now you all know what they meant when they told us on TV that they’re “all in it togeather”.

  17. The Independent parties who decide to take all pensioner out of the tax system and allow them to earn whatever they like will win the next election.
    The elderly have paid taxes in this country all their working life and still the scum liberal and labour want to tax them for trying to stay alive
    Shame on yes evil politicians. They tried bumping them off with their evil covid jabs and killed many. They are relentless in their pursuit of the pensioners
