Prime Minister, yesterday the royal commission heard about ANZ's treatment of the Handley family, whose farm struggled with drought and fires. ANZ reneged on an agreed overdraft and overcharged interest on the Handley's accounts. When Elizabeth Handley received adverse biopsy results, ANZ refused to reschedule their mediation. She was later diagnosed with cancer. Why is the Prime Minister rewarding the big banks with a $17 billion handout?
