"We have absolutly no plans to privatise
either the generators or the poles and wires"
- Barry O'Farrell, Premier (Lithgow Mercury, 29 Jan 2011)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's time to tell Barry O'Farrell that enough is enough!
It is now clear that the people of NSW have been betrayed. We are again forced to campaign against a Government hell bent on selling everything off including the publicly owned electricity network.
Past surveys show that 80% of people in NSW oppose the sale of the publicly owned electricity network - an essential service, just like our hospitals, schools and emergency services. If the O'Farrell Government hand over this monopoly to the private sector, struggling families across NSW will pay the price - literally.
It's time to say enough is enough...
EMAIL - Premier Barry O'Farrell and Nationals Leader Andrew Stoner and tell them to keep their pre-election promise to KEEP ELECTRICITY IN PUBLIC HANDS.
