Don't tell the politicians, but they haven't seen the last of our billboards or the awesome activists campaigning to stop the privatisation of VicRoads.
There’s going to be street stalls, more visits to Parliament by the mobile billboard, and even a couple of surprises that the pollies sure ain't expecting!
Thank you to the Victorian Greens and Samantha Ratnam - Leader of the Victorian Greens for their strong support for our campaign to stop the Dan Andrews Victorian Labor Government privatising VicRoads.
In just 90 seconds Samantha Ratnam makes a LOT of sense. So give her speech in Parliament a watch.
Samantha Ratnam - Leader of the Victorian Greens
The Greens strongly support the ASUVicTas campaign to stop the privatisation of VicRoads.
This Labor government has embarked on the biggest privatisation binge of any government since Jeff Kennett.
This is not a legacy to be proud of. It's just short-term gain for long-term pain.
From the West Gate Tunnel, tram strikes this week, delays and cost blowouts on major projects, we are seeing what happens when essential services like our public transport system and transport infrastructure are privatised.
Victorians are still living with the disaster of a privatised energy system, with high electricity prices and private companies holding back the transition to clean energy.
Wages and conditions for employees are held hostage to the profit margins of these big corporations, due diligence is either not completed or responsibility is passed onto others, environmental impact assessments are token at best, and all the while prices rise and services decline.
And this is exactly what will happen if this government privatises VicRoads.
I met with workers who are worried about losing their jobs.
We do not know what will happen to the data collected from the millions of Victorians by VicRoads, and we do not know by how much but fees and charges will rise.
If the government can learn anything from the woes it is experiencing on its major projects right now, it is that privatisation has failed Victorians.
Do not privatise VicRoads. Our state is not for sale!
