   Kenneally looking at;
   Rec Rego
   Single Seat Rego
   Independent Actuary to review CTP
   MCCofNSW to get a seat on the Motor Accident Board
   Possible funding for a full time staffer, office and Researcher.............
   Pretty damn fine result there.

   Numbers; 800 bikes 2000 protesters
   Raptor pulled up the patch riders when they left.
   HP pulled over some Bikeme guys for running an amber light.
   The coppers blocked off a lane each way on Macquarie St.

   the coppers were initially herding people off the road and onto the foot path, telling people to allow room for pedestrians and prams... they gave up after a while and blocked the lanes.. it wasn't a voluntary move... and talk about over policing, the riot squad ?? and all the fat old sods who normally stuck in the office eating donuts were waddling around out the back.. just to make sure all the criminal bikies behaved.. what a joke they were... 

   
   

   hopefully more will come of it all...

   G'day,

   
   Here's an email I received today from Andrew Stoner. He seems to be fair dinkum about this.

   
   Hello Mick,

   Yesterday more than 1,000 riders protested outside NSW Parliament and made their voices heard against the outrageous increase in motorcycle CTP insurance.

   Here is the Channel Seven News story on the rally.

   In a bid to divert attention, after the rally the Keneally Labor Government announced that the Motor Accidents Authority (MAA) would review motorcycle green slip pricing.

   The last time the MAA did a review CTP green slips went up by 85 per cent!

   I met many of you yesterday, spoke at the rally and got the message loud and clear that it is action you are after, not more reports or reviews.

   After Premier Keneally failed to attend the rally, I asked her about Motorbike CTP hikes in NSW Parliament. Click here to see the footage.

   I will continue to fight for action from the Keneally Labor Government and encourage you all to continue to spread the word about the Rider Rip Off website - we now have more than 5,000 signatures but we need to keep on building momentum on this important issue.

   Regards

   Andrew Stoner MP
   Shadow Minister for Roads
