Disability Support Pension Changes are a Disgrace
Send a message to Canberra
Changes to Disability Support Pension conditions announced in the May 2005 Australian Federal Budget are a travesty of social justice. Disability Activist Ken Davis calls on all Australians who oppose these changes to unite with one voice to send a message to Canberra.
United action, through media campaigns, personal letter writing, public education, street rallies and a blockade on Parliament House are needed to send a message to the Coalition that this action is the death knell for the Government. It's not too late to force a change of mind. Remember the Franklin River. Remember Daintree. While the Environment is important, nothing is more important than how a civilised society cares for the poor and disadvantaged.
Tuesday May 10 is the day the Government finally lost the plot, but individual citizens and disability organisations CAN force the government to reconsider. Act now by signing the petition at http://www.life-directions.net/dsp.php and signing below
My aim is to unite the diverse disability groups in Australia and present a unified campaign to force the Coalition to back down.
