Let the community decide

Join our Campaign to bring back our local councils!

Dear NSW Parliament,

We call on every NSW MP to commit to legislation that allows residents to vote in a binding de-merger plebiscite in any council that has been forced to merge by the Baird Government.

If a majority of residents support their council standing alone, then the law must provide for a council to be reinstated and a de-merger to occur at the soon as possible.

We make this demand because we believe that the community -- residents and local businesses-- not Mike Baird,  should decide the future of their local councils.

    I voted for MY choice of counsellors at the last Council elections as is my right. By forcing (dictating) amalgamation this State Government has taken away my vote. It is our community and we should be the decision makers?

    These amalgamations are an appalling undemocratic piece of political manipulation that will almost inevitably favour the development industry over the individual resident and the interests of big party politics over local issues.

    This is tyranny. The directive actually comes from the evil UN and their global policy called Agenda 21 – read it !! It is all hidden in plain view by the world’s greatest tyrants. This amalgamation is merely a spec in the plan to enslave the entire world’s population to central banks, central control with a one world government and one world currency. Wonder why the debts are so high? This has all been strategically planned people at the highest echelons and is all based in fraud. Any member who has stood behind this plan and deal should be prosecuted as this is an act of treason, especially ignoring the wishes of the people. The same stands for endorsing the TPP, it is treason, a take over of liberty and freedom. This is NOT democracy but chronie capitalism which will lead to complete socialism for the rest of us. When that happens millions are murdered by their Govt. Just look at history. We are no different and we are no exception. When will we learn? If we the people do not take back our country and restore true democracy humanity will be enslaved forever.
