Keep NSW uranium free – rally next Tuesday outside Parliament

Tuesday 13 November marks the end of the initial 60-day period for Expressions of Interest for uranium exploration in NSW.

Greens MP Jamie Parker will speak at a midday rally outside Parliament house alongside MPs, union representatives, activists and community members to protest uranium mining and exploration.

Earlier this year, the Liberal government overturned a 26-year long moratorium on uranium exploration, without consultation or any mandate from the people of NSW.

Join us for a community protest outside NSW Parliament at midday on Tuesday 13 November, Macquarie St Sydney.

Speakers include:
Jamie Parker - Greens MP for Balmain
Luke Foley - NSW Labor, Shadow Minister for the Environment and Climate Change
Genevieve Kelly - NTEU NSW Secretary, recently returned from Unions NSW trip to Fukushima, Japan
Richard Broinowski - Former diplomat, University of Sydney Adjunct Professor, and author of new book, Fallout from Fukushima

FERRIES AT ANNANDALE AND WEST BALMAIN

Imagine hopping on a ferry at Annandale or West Balmain and being in the heart of the city within minutes.

In 2020, we won the campaign for a Glebe ferry. Now, we have the opportunity to connect more of our area to the ferry network. New ferries at Annandale and West Balmain will provide a faster, smarter route into the city without adding to the traffic on our roads.

Both Labor and the Liberals want to build more polluting and destructive tollways across Sydney. But we have costed a comprehensive plan for a world-class public transport system that makes getting around our city fast and easy.

Dear Transport Minister,

New inner west ferry services would provide efficient, fast and environmentally sound travel to and from the area for workers, tourists, students, pensioners and the general public.

I therefore ask that the Government build on the success of the Blackwattle Bay ferry and establish a ferry service at Rozelle Bay for the Annandale area and reinstate the ferry at West Balmain.
