    ACC: Cynical sales pitch

    They're saying motorcyclists won!

    Won? We were screwed over and they doubled the reg for BOTH my big bikes.

    Fuck em! They played us for suckers.

    One of my first posts: "they're saying triple but would be rapped with double"

    How did we win? National disrespected us all.


    Phile Goff: tell us you're gonna make bikes and cars even in ACC levies and we'll give you our votes...............................National thinks we'll forget in a couple of years, I won't

    Les: I'm not pleased at all

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    What we have here is the old good cop bad cop routine.
    Well rehearsed months ago.
    Made to make Nick-louse and Key look like "decent" people.
    This was the levy hike they really wanted. Cynical? It's fucking laughably obvious.

    Pissed

    Not happy at all, acc is not broke the figures are crap, looks like the heat got to someone and he said shut it down.

    What ever happened to the submissions, the representative groups 2nd meeting, the consultaion, the select committee process with recommendations to cabinet and a decision in February.

    The protests and targeting national events has to continue, the Akld Christmas Card event is the next one.

    The worst part, heard it on Rock News: According to Nick - wages and car levies have to go up to compensate for the reduction for motorcycles. I nearly had an accident, with the cage, when I listened to that.

    The public gets brainwashed against bikers. No mention about all levies are going up initially and now all are reduced. They make it sound as if everyone has to subsidize us.

    Not happy at all. Not with the increase nor with the false statements.

    Anyone got a recording of this BS so we can hit them back?

    Yep, we're still to blame eh?
    And the most disappointing thing is some people are beginning to buy into it here.
    No fucking rise that's more than other road users..
    No fucking appeasement
    No slacking off.
    Don't accept a slap as better than a kick.
    Bite the bastard that slaps you.
