Diary of our stinking Govt.

[boris1gary]

As it's more than 100 days now, it has been suggested that a new thread was needed.  The current govt has been breaking promises and telling lies at a rate so fast it's hard to keep up.

This below is worrying, "independent" pffft, as if your own doctor is somehow what? biased, it's ridiculous. So far there is talk of only including people under a certain age 30-35, for now. Remember that if your injured in a car, injured at work or get ill, you too might need to go on the DSP. They have done a similar think in the UK with devastating consequences.

and this is the 2nd time recently where the Govt has referred to work as welfare???? So when you go to work tomorrow (or tuesday), just remember that's welfare.

Independent doctors could be called in to reassess disability pensioners, Federal Government says

The Federal Government is considering using independent doctors to examine disability pensioners and assess whether they should continue to receive payments.

Currently family doctors provide reports supporting claims for the Disability Support Pension (DSP).

But Social Services Minister Kevin Andrews is considering a measure that would see independent doctors reassess eligibility.

"We are concerned that where people can work, the best form of welfare is work," Mr Andrews said at a press conference.

He was attacked outside his room. He had been to the internet room but

had left it and was on his way to his room and was attacked outside it.

i would like to know who it is that you have

accused of doing the following:

Reza was using a computer, he was dragged out of the room and had his neck broken and his skull fractured

and if you have any proof to support 

that.

The fellow Iranian asylum seeker says Mr Berati went to the detention centre's internet room to raise the alarm during the riot, then he returned to his room.

The asylum seeker describes how a local PNG man was the first to attack Mr Berati outside his room.

"When Reza came up the stairs (censored) was at the top of the stairs waiting for him," the witness claimed

"He was holding a large wooden stick, a metre-and-a-half long. It had two nails in the wood. The nails were sticking out.

"(Censored) said: 'F*** you m***** f*****!' (Censored) took a big swing at Reza, hitting him on top of the head."

The account suggests the presence of two Australian G4S security staff.

"Ten or 15 guards from G4S came up the stairs. Two of them were Australians. The rest were PNG locals, I know who they are. I can identify them by their face," the asylum seeker said.

"They started kicking Reza in his head and stomach with their boots."

The account says a local man landed a final blow on Mr Reza.

"There was a local ... I recognise him. He picked up a big rock," the asylum seeker said.

"He lifted the rock above his head and threw it down hard on top of Reza's head.

that's all I can find on it, I certainly won't be reading your link to the official immigration site version Julia.
