The Peoples Blockade of Newcastle Port begins!
A great turn out, amazing energy, and anecdotal reporting that a coal ship has been delayed! ✊
A completely OTT police response (the cops have their own special operation for this activity) and only two 'pro coal' counter protesters seen so far.

Port of #NewcastleAustralia shipping paused as more than 100 #AntiCoal #protesters arrested
November 23, 2024
"More than 100 people have been arrested in Newcastle for allegedly defying directions by New South Wales Police during an anti-#FossilFuel protest at the world's largest coal port.
"Dozens of protesters on kayaks and small water craft paddled out on Newcastle Harbour on Sunday morning.
"Standing on the beach, a police officer using a loud speaker told those gathered on the sand they could be breaking the law if they entered the shipping channel.
"NSW Police said just after 10am on Sunday a large group of people entered the shipping channel and interfered with the movement of vessels.
"As a result police said 138 people had been arrested after refusing to comply with a direction to move away from the channel.
Thousands of people have gathered in Newcastle over the past few days for what activism group Rising Tide has called 'the people's blockade' of the world's largest coal port.
"The police operation on the harbour is continuing and police aren't ruling out further arrests.
"'NSW Police will adopt a zero-tolerance approach to actions which threaten public safety and the safe passage of vessels,' a statement said.
"Rising Tide has declared the protest action successful, claiming the paddle-out forced a bulk carrier to turn around and not enter the port."

At the phenomenal #PeoplesBlockade of the world's largest coal port in Newcastle today with #RisingTideAus
The energy and determination of the crowds here is amazing. Thousands have gathered to demand a safer climate future with #NoMoreCoal and #NoMoreGasWouldn't it be fantastic if - for a change - instead of trying to shut down and silence protest, our governments actually listened to the will and wisdom of the people?
A better future free from polluting fossil fuels is possible 💪🌏

Feeling a bit warm today? Yeah, me too.
We don’t have to just sit by and quietly hope the decision makers do the right thing. We can all be part of making change happen.
I’ll be back in Newcastle to join Rising Tide’s blockade of the world’s biggest coal port next week, 22-24 November, alongside my friends Rebecca Vassarotti, Jo Clay and thousands of others.
See you there?
