Full Description
This video accompanies a posting on Melbourne Indymedia - http://indymedia.org.au/2009/10/25/friends-of-the-earth-anti-nuclear-community-bbq-at-batman-park-24-october - where the event is reported along with some photos. The callout from Melbourne FoE read as follows:
Come along with friends and family to Batman Park for some truthful
discussion on Labor's push to expand the nuclear industry in
Australia.
Martin Ferguson is the federal member for Batman and the
Minister for Resources and Energy. Mr Ferguson is also responsible for
radioactive waste management and in the near future he will announce plans to
dump nuclear waste on Aboriginal land in the NT. He has failed to repeal
the blatantly racist Commonwealth Radioactive Waste Management Act as promised
by the Labor Party before the 2007 election.
We are encouraging open
discussion and debate on these issues (and others, including Ferguson's
promotion of coal, aluminium and other greenhouse-intensive industries) within
the Batman Electorate.
Become a part of the fight against nuclear power
and join Friends of the Earth's Anti-Nuclear and Clean Energy collective and
other Batman residents at:
BATMAN PARK
SATURDAY OCTOBER 24th from 12
