One Nation will save Australians from these disgraceful Uniparties that don't care about us!

When a mobile network is down, it may be possible to make internet enabled calls if the caller has access to wifi. This includes calls to 000. All modern mobile phones have this capability. The user just needs to turn on "WiFi Calling".

Vote ONE NATION !!!!!!!

Making fake calls to 000 is an offence. Henderson should be investigated, and sacked from her position as shadow. She's clearly not up to the job. Adding to an overloaded system can in no way be seen as helping,

Labor destroys

Sarah Henderson didn't even know its a crime with jail time to ring Triple zero unless its an actual emergency and LIED during the car crash interview with the ABC.

"The Triple Zero Emergency Call Service should only be used when seeking an emergency response from a Police, Fire or Ambulance service in a life-threatening or time-critical situation"

"It is an offence to make a non-emergency call to the Triple Zero Emergency Call Service under the Criminal Code Act."

She should be arrested and charged with a crime under the Criminal Code Act and jailed/fined.

She is also the most incompetent Shadow Minister I've ever see.

Sarah Henderson is right, however what we really deserve is a intelligent accountable government and sadly this is not so.
