All this is only possible where these 'public servants' are covered up by a 'Captured' mainstream press. Power always corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely! Thankfully Adams and North are on the case as is RFK jnr in the UISA, - just need a few in EU and UK to right this Shi t/p
We the public of Australia have watched with sadness and anger at the trail of human destruction left by ASIC’s deliberate inaction. Now we can say, thank God for Martin North and John Adam’s as they with their knowledge and skill force the Government to act on behalf of we the citizens, who elected the to govern with integrity and justice.
Thank God indeed. To all you compromised, corrupt and self-serving parliamentarians and bureaucrats within the mountain of government - ALL that you thought was securely 'hidden' (past and present) is about to be revealed and a great tsunami of exposure of all the lies and deceit and heinous acts is about to come forth and it WILL NOT BE STOPPED - you WILL reap what you have sown.
The ASIC senior management should be removed with No pension or sweetheart deals and criminal proceedings should be initiated where necessary. Great work guys.
It's not just ASIC but right across the board. The ordinary Australian worker is crucified by being pushed into working longer AND if we happen to lose our jobs regadless of the reason, there are no golden goodies to see us to the end of our lives. Getting the pension is a battle in itself. They the their time. As 10:48 as I'm concerned, getting the age pension is a RIGHT and NOT an entitlement!!!
Thanks Martin and John. You are providing better service to the public than any of those arrogant, overpaid politicians and senior public servants are providing. We certainly do need a clean sweep of the old self serving guard. Maybe we can get in some people who think the job is about public service, rather than self service.
Unfortunately the nature of politics is such that in too many cases it attracts the wrong type of puffed up individual - arrogant, egotistic, self-serving and easily corruptible.
@@Andre_XX the way our society was redesigned into dog eat dog survival of the fittest made it hard for anyone except psychopaths to get to the top... now they run everything... politicians are not dumb, they are paid actors
Everyday Australians are coming for you over reaching and currupt public officials, some of you will face judgement of a unfair and illegal taxation, and financial system. You will not be able to walk the streets. Every day Australians have had enough. Good on you, in the interest of the people. Thank you
Only need to take brief a look at any Senate enquiry, to see the absolute level of arrogance and hubris displayed by these Senior public servants when questioned by enquiring Senators, to understand there is no accountability for this permanent administrative state. This is an indication Government has grown far too large, and has become a threat to the democratic process. There needs to be major root and branch reform of the Federal Public Service, with downsizing as the primary objective.
It’s really feeling like we’re living in an asylum these days. I’m seeing ordinary people being fined for things like faded number plates on their cars while greedy, powerful people have got the regulators in their pockets and are riding roughshod over any kind of ethical considerations that decent humans would make when living their lives. Thank you so much both of you, I hope that this ends in a positive outcome for the Australian people
I’ve run multiple businesses for over 20 years and have completely lost faith in ASIC. In 2022, I was travelling and had limited access to internet and mail. We had several dormant companies which we were going to let expire (which we did previously when they simply become deregisters if they renewal fee wasn’t paid). The Annual Renewal base fee was $275. Within three months, the late fees had escalated to $620. If any private enterprise imposed such penalties on any other citizen they would be charged with usury and unconscionable conduct. Upon returning from the travelling,the matter was addressed with ASIC who held a very aggressive position and made it very clear the companies could not be de registered until ALL late fees ($620 per entity) were paid PLUS an additional $44 fee to de-register. Additionally they reprimanded me (arrogant public services who woundn’t have a job if private enterprise didn’t pay taxes to pay their wages) that if I failed to pay the full amounts outstanding, we would be placed into colllections and our personal credit rating as a director would be impacted. That is mafia/mob style coercion and stand over tactics. Grossly unacceptable. Add to that, there is a minimum 40 minute wait time (often longer on hold) any time you call ASIC with an enquiry. What a gross waste of national productivity. If 1,000 businesses lose an hour of productive work hours every day just waiting on hold, that’s 5,000 hours per week (1,000 hrs per day x 5 days), 20,000 hours per month (4 wk month) and 260,000 hours per year, just sitting on the phone waiting for a government department employee to pick up the phone to answer your enquiry. Often they try to direct you to their website which is a mess of confusing menus and data that unless you already know what you need to look for, you don’t know what to find or to how to find it. They all need to be sacked and forced to set up their own business so they get to experience first hand the gross level of competence and inflated arrogance involved dealing with them.
What a brilliant response, indeed set them up in a business and see how long they last! The contempt they have with no accountability, the fines, the interest, loose your credit rating, this is likened to a union mob looking for safety of building money, that they would burn to the ground if employees didn’t pay union fees. This actually went on in Sydney Maritime occupations. It’s all a corporate fraud set up under Admiralty Law they operate in.. know your rights, know your laws! Common vs Admiral.
Terrible carry on, how awfully heavy handed these government agencies and departments are! They act like terrorists, it should be against laws, rules and regulations for such bodies to operate in such strong-arm tactics ways
Well done lads, as always very much appreciate your insights and honesty. The people responsible shouldn't just step down, they need to. be held to account and not just replaced with another set of crooks. The whole system is a mafioso protection racket.
Because we don’t maintain the pressure, and they all know it..well that’s changing, Good Aussies are tired of being fleeced by these corrupt shearer’s, ( your governments) not all sheep are following!
Now we just need the public servants to start listening regarding the pandemic treaty with WHO making a full blown assault on Australian health sovereignty!
This ⬆️ ! ..... And the RBA must always be accountable to parliament which is, if it is working correctly, acting as the people representatives. It just isn't working that way currently due to self important, self serving, jelly backed elitists.
@@corinnewatts6683 too much corrupt interference from the globalist 🐖 at the IMF stating back in November last year to continue pushing up our interest rates. This is corrupt as the RBA. Is deliberately set out to destroy our economy and bring in the CBDC to enslave us all. All these bastard criminals in government need to all be charged and locked up for the rest of their lives for treason
It is so difficult to hold the bureaucracy to account. Well done Adams and North. Your perseverance is appreciated. P.S ASIC in decline from a low base despite more resource in the interim.
Hello Treasury 👋. Bet YOUR bottom dollar that We the People are watching what you’re doing, the details and the faults. It’s about time you took that into account. You work FOR US and we require you to do your job properly, and that includes transparency and honesty. This extends to EVERY government bureaucratic agency. We do not accept “not in public’s interest”. Everything you do IS in our public interest to know. It’s OUR money you’re dealing with and being paid by. Thank you IOTP and John Adams, for bringing information to us that government would rather us not hear about.
SHUT DOWN ASIC's - Dissolve them 100% - all officers and staff in ASIC's need to be replaced and those responsible should suffer the legal consequences of their actions - Prison Time Gentleman is in order.
Dear John and Martin, I want to express how deeply grateful I am for your information. I am not financial savvy, not at all, but thanks to your podcasts I understand much more of the complex dealings of government and its agencies. The timing for you to educate the public is right on, also to consider the 'fresh', more critical thinking politician entering parlement. The public is slowly better able to 'to lift the curtain a bit' and see and understand more of what is going on in politics. Again, thank you both and keep educating me.(and possibly many others)😊
ASIC is a total failure. Even their website information is lacking significant and important details, effectively helping to cover up and hinder research on Corporations and their structures. As some ASIC employees transfer to AFCA, they bring with them culture that is counterproductive to WeThePeople interests, and should be next on the Royal Enquiry list. The whole system is obsolete, it lacks transparency and has abandoned the truth long time ago…
As the watchdog of the financial world, they never seem to prosecute anyone. They hand out fines (a wrist slap) but never help people who have been ripped off by the corporations. Peoples equity, super, savings and assets are stolen, but ASIC don't care. People have lost their lives because of corporations.
When service to self rather than service to others becomes so obvious in our govt and institutions there is no so called democracy. ASIC is just one of the many agencies, TGA, Dougherty Institute to name a couple, that have behaved criminally toward the people they were set up to serve. RBA is a private corporation giving the Treasury a target to blame especially now that they intend to obfuscate responsibility entirely. To my mind, Australia has been financially captured but most shockingly 'given up' to the criminal global elites that truly run our country and 'select' our leaders in key roles across the board, given up by our own Australian leaders. But all will come to light. ASIC is just the beginning. Thank you John and Martin, you are true heroes in service to others
Great work John and Martin. The politicians and their crony bureaucrats will always try to cover up their crimes. May the rod of god show them the right path
Thanks John n Martin for a Informative, clear, easy to understand show that points out what's exactly been happening for a very long time in our country, your expertise and accuracy along with a never give up attitude is very much appreciated.🍻
Thank you Both for all your hard work ... Hopefully this will gain more public attention and the government held to account for its inability to hold Asic for its self governance, lack of support for All people that needed help ... Asic should be dismantled and a fresh new team established.... John Adam leadership would be an amazing asset....
Great work by John and Martin to shine a light into the dark corners of entrenched power. It is a too familiar story of ‘ regulatory capture’ by an industry; even if the legislation appears to have sufficient powers to detect and prosecute law breakers. An insidious process of compromise, dodgy deal making and possible outright bribery or intimidation can arise if senior managers are insulated from public scrutiny.
ASIC needs to clean up your act. You are the financial police that need to do your job to shutdown the crooks & not the whistleblowers!! Come on ASIC. Political party stop corruption next!!!!!!!
Well Done, both of you. I know most of the work on 'the package' was done by John, but I have no doubt that Martin participated with his calm wisdom. You're a great pair, and I, for one, hope that this excellent collaboration will continue in time and space.
Thanks Martin and John for your diligent research and excellent commentary. (On a side note John, are you aware that your microphone audio quality is not up to the same standard as Martin’s? There is some degree of distortion in the sound being transmitted from your microphone which is an unfortunate distraction for the listener.)
Great job guys, now get onto housing minister to legislate the removal of negative gearing (grandfather one property each person for existing investment properties) and tackle capital gains tax subsidy.. Housing is a human right, not an investment vehicle at the expense of the poor and working class.
Finally the results of a decline indicated in a APS 2016 report on capacity. Funny how we are meant to be so smart yet we are dumbfounded by so many real and social problems- can't wait to see how this all pans out😮
Useless and corrupt come to mind. Don't expect any results from within. They would more likely put the comment names on a naughty list instead of seeing it as how public perception is.
Another quality show. No wonder governments hate social media. They can’t control the narrative. Keep it up. This sort of content has me writing my local MPs. I am sure they are getting more correspondence than ever.
Hey Martin and John did you heard this weekend about houses and apartments being built cheap intentionally? It's also mentioned to be the case in shellcove and some other areas within the Illawarra areas like WOLLONGONG and its been well known about the likelihood for defects and water damages to likely to occur. It's starting to look bad now that it can't be ignored now in those suburbs hitting the news so this could potentially be something for "interest of the people" or "the citizens party" to poke the bears of government with 🤷♂️🤷♀️🤷? .... Just a thought 😊
@goonie8814 it must feel uncomfortable for some builders knowing this and then going home at the end of the day and having to bite their tounge when their family and friends buy or build within those suburbs showing off their homes at house parties or over a BBQ 😬
I am here Listening. australia is just like a drama show like neighbours or home and away as most these people working in these places were conditioned by these shows I am Guessing.
The sooner this self appointed prime minister is taken down & exposed for the lying evil man that he is, the better along with his side kick. I want a man or woman holding the office of prime minister who has some backbone, honesty & integrity in their spine. We always seem to end up with useless, spineless individuals taking on this very important role who are easily led astray as they are greedy, power hungry individuals.
Bring ASIC to account through the Adams Report. Federal Labor (Jim Chalmers) use your power to overrule the RBA interest hikes. Federal Labor, I reject WHO's legislation to call pandemics on my country overruling my government's powers/legislation. Federal Labor, make multi-national companies and our own corporations pay their correct tax bill thus returning excess funds to my country - Australia.
