  1. “Our leaders fly around the world making all sorts of bold statements about meaningful climate action, then they return home and approve devastating projects like this. It's "say one thing, do another".

    Today, Prime Minister Albanese is travelling to Fiji for the climate talks. But, as former Kiribati President, His Excellency Anote Tong asked so clearly in The New Daily today: "if climate talks cannot end coal and gas, what are they for?"

    If the PM truly wanted to respect our Pacific Island neighbours, the path forward is clear: reject the extension of the Hunter Valley coal mine, along with its 800 million tonnes of climate pollution, and stop all new gas and coal approvals.” (Source: Noah Schultz-Byard - The Australian Institute )

  25. From 2022: #NSW Police Use #AntProtest Laws to Monitor Tour Groups

    by Paul Gregoire & Ugur Nedim,13 Oct 2022

    Excerpt: "#SilencingDissent

    "Back in 2014, then NSW premier Mike Baird told a NSW mining industry dinner that his government was going to 'crackdown' on those who choose to break the law when they protest. And he singled out '#protesters who unlawfully enter #mining sites.'

    "A little over a year later, the Coalition government followed through with the premier’s promise when it passed a series of harsh #AntiProtestLaws, under the Inclosed Lands, Crimes and Law Enforcement Legislation Amendment (Interference) Bill 2016.

    "The legislation created the new offence of aggravated unlawful entry on inclosed lands. Section 4B of the #InclosedLand Protection Act 1901 provides that interfering, or attempts to interfere, with the conduct of a business on enclosed land can land a #protester with a fine of up to $5,500.

    "Under the provisions of the bill, police were provided with additional powers to stop, search, detain, and seize the property of protesters, as well as being given the power to shutdown a peaceful protest if it is #ObstructingTraffic.

    "And the bill also inserted a definition of #mine into section 201 of the #CrimesAct 1900, so that the offence of interfering with a mine includes #coal seam #gas exploration and extraction sites. This offence carries a maximum penalty of seven years imprisonment.

    "The #WilpinjongThree

    "Bev Smiles, Bruce Hughes and Stephanie Luce are the first people to be up on protesting charges since the laws were changed. In April last year, the three were arrested for protesting outside the #Wilpinjong #CoalMine in #Wollar.

    "The three are up on charges of rendering a road belonging to a mine useless and hindering the working equipment belonging to a mine. These are both offences that carry the penalty of seven years imprisonment.

    "When the trio appeared at Mudgee Local Court on February 9, the presiding magistrate rejected police claims that the Wollar-Ulan Road, where the defendants were arrested, actually belonged to the mining company.

    " 'They have pleaded not guilty, and are awaiting a judgment on the case,' Mr Phillips explained. 'The outcome of that case will be important.” If the three have 'the book thrown at them' then it’s likely to discourage the protesting of coal mines in NSW."
