This is an actual letter sent to the then DFAT
(Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade) Minster,
The Hon Alexander Downer and
the then Immigration Minister,
The Hon Amanda Vanstone.
The Government tried desperately to censure the author,
but got nowhere because every legal person who read it
nearly wet themselves laughing!
Please excuse the language
contained within, but I suspect the author was somewhat upset?
I'll let you decide!
Dear Mr. Minister,
I'm in the process of renewing my passport, and still cannot believe
this.
How is it that K-Mart has my address and telephone number,
and knows that I bought a television set and golf clubs from them back
in 1997,
and yet the Federal Government is still asking me where I was born and
on what date.
For Christ sakes, do you guys do this by hand?
My birth date you have in my Medicare information,
and it is on all the income tax forms
I've filed for the past 40 years.
It is also on my driver's licence, and on the last eight passports
I've ever had,
it's on all those stupid customs declaration forms I've had to fill out
before being allowed off the planes over the last 30 years, and all
those insufferable census forms that I've filled out every 5 years since
1966.
Also... would somebody please take note, once and for all, that my
mother's
name is Audrey, my fathers name is Jack, and I'd be absolutely fing
astounded if that ever changed between now and when I drop dead!!!...
S@~T!
I apologize, Mr. Minister. But I'm really pi@@ed off this morning.
Between you and me, I've had enough of all this bu.ll sh.it!
You send the application to my house, then you ask me for my fing
address!!
What the hell is going on with your mob?
Have you got a gang of mindless Neanderthal ars.e ho.les working there!
And another thing, look at my damn picture..
Do I look like Bin Laden?
I can't even grow a beard for Gods sakes. I just want to go to New
Zealand
and see my new granddaughter. (Yes, my son interbred with a Kiwi girl).
And would someone please tell me, why would you give a shi.t whether
I plan on visiting a farm in the next 15 days?
If I ever got the urge to do something weird to a sheep or a horse,
believe you me, I'd sure as hell not want to tell anyone!
Well, I have to go now, cause I have to go to the other end of the
city,
and get another f..ing copy of my birth certificate, and to part with
another
$80 for the privilege of accessing MY OWN INFORMATION!
Would it be so complicated to have all the services in the same spot,
to assist in the issuance of a new passport on the same day??
Nooooo.. thatd be too easy and makes far too much sense.
You would much prefer to have us running all over the place
like chickens with our f@~~ing heads cut off, and then having
to find some high-society wa.nker to confirm that it's really me in the
goddamn
photo!
You know the photo.. the one where we're not allowed to smile?!
....you f@####g morons
Signed.
An Irate Australian Citizen.
P.S.
Remember what I said above about the picture, and getting someone in
high-society to confirm that it's me? Well, my family has
been in this country since before 1850!
In 1856, one of my forefathers took up arms
with Peter Lalor.
(You do remember the Eureka Stockade!!)
I have also served in both the CMF and regular Army for something over
30 years (I went to Vietnam in 1967),
and still have high security clearances. I'm also a personal friend
of the
president of the RSL.. and Lt General Peter Cosgrove sends me a
Christmas
card each year.
However, your rules require that I have to get someone important
to verify who I am; You know... someone like my doctor
WHO WAS BORN AND RAISED IN F@#####g PAKISTAN!!!......
a country where they either assassinate or hang their ex-Prime
Ministers,
and are suspended from the Commonwealth for not having the right sort
of government.
You are all F@#####g idiots!
