The ramifications of this legislation are yet to be seen, though we can only speculate that it will cause more problems than it solves. By secretly trying to push this legislation through without the consent of the public, and lack of transparency on the contents of the agreement, people are likely to protest this move  in a multitude of ways.

An audit of a camera deal found Melbourne-based Redflex Holdings allegedly agreed to pay 3.2 per cent of its share of camera revenue to the former United States councillor, who subsequently arranged to split the cash with the wife of a local judge.

The company – which also operates Victorian red light cameras – is at the centre of several court actions in Louisiana after a local council outside New Orleans turned off the cameras last January amid concerns company lobbyists were earning a share from camera fines.

Redflex is now locked in a court battle with Jefferson Parish to recover $US5 million that the parish has refused to pass on to Redflex until the outcome is known of a separate court action that alleges the cameras are unconstitutional.

If anyone knows which court case the article refers to, please let us know.

Budget papers reveal that revenue from fines will almost double from $295 million in 2008-09 to $570 million in 2011-12.

“Fine revenue is estimated to increase by $137 million during 2010-11, with a mobile speed camera program and a five per cent increase in speeding fines,” the Budget says.

Drivers will not be warned before driving into the mobile speed camera’s zone. A small sign on the vehicle reads: “Safe speed check”. Another sign placed at the roadside will inform motorists: “Your speed has been checked.”

Enough said.

When a group of people share a common opinion in regards to an issue they feel strongly about, they will usually put a petition together, in the hope that positive change can be made when enough people put their signatures onto a piece of paper. Petitions are useful in some situations, they are often used within Parliament, and can sometimes be effective when enough public awareness and public pressure is focused upon the issue at hand.

In the legal sense, only the first signature in a petition has any weight. For example, if a number of people signed a petition to stop the government from doing an unfavourable action (such as introduce smart electricity meters that they want us to pay for just so they can increase their rates,  increase fines to boost revenue, privatise energy retailers, and the list goes on), the receiving body would only formally respond to the first signature in the petition, and is in no way obligated to do anything about it.

Compare the two dictionary definitions below.

2. a request made for something desired, esp. a respectful or humble request, as to a superior or to one of those in authority;

–verb (used with object)
5. to beg for or request

Mandate

–noun

Can you notice the stark difference ?
To someone that doesn’t realise the ultimate power and authority in a democracy lies with the people. The people in government are our elected representatives, a lot of people tend to forget that. It’s no wonder though, and isn’t it interesting that they word the laws they introduce as being “in force”, and they generally label themselves as the “authority”. Things are changing though, eg, The Road Traffic Authority is now known as Vic Roads.

If the government wants to introduce a new policy, then they should be petitioning the people, not the other way around!

What is a Peoples’ Mandate ?
If you desire a change from the government, then the proper process is to express Your Will. When enough people express their will, 51% of the affected people in any given location (eg, your local shire, state or across the country), then it becomes a Peoples’ Mandate. A democratic government cannot ignore a Peoples’ Mandate, plain and simple, as the people are the authority, and when the people express their will in the correct manner, our elected representatives must obey, as they are public servants after all.

An Organised Committee is the best way to put forward a Peoples’ Mandate

The best way to get a Peoples’ Mandate in action is to have an organised committee of people, each with their own respective roles. By working as a team your message can be delivered more effectively with the support you need. There are some online resources that can assist with finding like minded people, here are some examples. Note that most groups simply use petitions, which you now know are not effective. Enlighten them on the right way to go about it with a Peoples’ Mandate!

The text below is from CanDoBetter.org – Amendment VC67: Urgent Appeal to all Victorian activist groups

Planning Backlash is joining Protectors of Public Lands and Green Wedge Coalition to oppose Amendment VC67, which is being brought to Parliament by Justin Madden (Minister for Planning) on June 22.

This amendment must not be passed.

Please join the rally 1 – 2 PM

June 22

On the steps of Victorian Parliament, Melbourne.

Details from Protectors of Public Lands:

Protectors of Public Lands Victoria Inc. has joined with the Green Wedges Coalition Inc. and Planning Backlash to hold a protest SAY NO TO VC67 PLANNING AMENDMENT – STOP URBAN SPRAWL, GREEN WEDGES DESTRUCTION AND HIGH
RISE ON TRAM/BUS ROUTES. It is not exaggerating to say that, if ratified by Parliament, this amendment could signify a catastrophe for Melbourne – the face and fabric of our city will be changed irrevocably forever. We are, therefore, inviting member groups, friends and supporters to our protest:

Rationale for Rally:

It is expected that, at this next sitting of Parliament commencing on 22 June 2010, Planning Minister Madden will be putting a resolution to the Upper House for ratification of VC 67 Planning Amendment. This is to approve extension of Melbourne’s urban growth boundary involving alienation of Green Wedges and will also increase density (Government lingo for high
rise) of residential development, including along tram and bus routes.

We need you to write to Coalition (Liberals and Nationals) Members of Parliament plus the DLP Member Peter Kavanagh urging them to take a last stand and vote no on VC 67. It would be helpful if you wrote to the Greens commending the Members for their stand opposing VC67. (I will send email addresses in my next communication. Also some extracts of VC 67.)

The maps showing the new Urban Growth Boundary and affected shires were only made available by the Department of Sustainability at the request of MPs late on 9 June.

Why UGB expansion plans are seriously flawed: analysis by Jenni Bundy

The  next time you hear a politician use the
Word ‘billion’ in a casual  manner, think about
Whether you want the ‘politicians’ spending
YOUR tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
But one advertising agency did a good job of
Putting  that figure into some perspective in
One of its press releases.

1. A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

2. A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

3. A billion hours ago our ancestors were Living in the Stone Age.

4. A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

5. A billion dollars ago was only
13 hours and 12 minutes,
At the rate our government
is spending it.

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago…
And our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world.

We had absolutely no national debt…
We had the largest middle class in the world…
And Mum stayed home to raise the kids.

What the hell happened?????
