Add a comment and tell us how your call went

The Labor Party is still tying themselves in knots about Adani. They need to hear from us encouraging them to reject this polluting coal mine.

This is Labor’s Franklin River moment. This decision will go down in Australian environmental history. The ALP are so close, but we need to get them over the line.

Give them the courage and confidence to make the right decision!

Will you call one – or many! – of these key people in Labor's Cabinet and encourage them to make a clear public statement opposing this dangerous mine? 

Calling tips

  • When you call, you might speak to a staffer. Ask them to leave a message for the Shadow Minister. If you can't get through, keep trying!
  • Be polite and encouraging – we want them to make a good decision!
  • Talk about why you care about this 
  • Be specific – ask them to make a clear public statement opposing Adani's mine

Tanya Plibersek. I spoke to a staffer that told me that were receiving lots of calls and that Tanya Plibersek had not changed her views on Adani.

i called Bill Shortens office and the secretary was emphatic that Labor will be the only Party to stop adani. i explained just how important our reef is to me and the world and after that he had to get to other swarms of calls to answer. he asked if i was responding from the ACF campaign

Got a better response from the office of CBowen. Office of TPlibersek says "position unchanged, and Tanya does not see the business case as stacking up.

Spoke to very helpfull office lady who is trying to find out exactly what bill shorten said. I told her no adani, no Abbott point. Also no to letting Gina Rhineheart take over the project or use Abbott Point ( which I think may be the next move).

D’uth know one’s humanity!!!
I called on the day before last and spoke to a forked toughed man over the telephone, hoping to take the opportunity to openly talk about the issue of Mr Adani and his “Coal Operation”. AHHHH! But low and behold, the rotten man squealed off the things that one would (metaphorically) suckle straight from the breast of Hades himself! Yet its as if Zeus blessed my lips and thus gained strength from thy breast, just Hercules rose to the throne of Olympus! COME BROTHERS AND SISTERS! Let us not suckle the lies from the nipples of the snake. Let us not cast away from the light of truth. Let us not let these Bummdars fraternise like Romans in an orgy of loose men and women. Spread the message like Hermes in the winds of truth!! Just like the 300 Spartans holding off the Persians at the moist womb of Greece herself, we will linking our strong, sweaty, muscular arms together to FIGHT off our common enemy!!!

HAZAARRRR!!!!!!!!

E mailed shadow cabinet.
Asked for public statement opposing Adani.
Urgency of climate change. Critical for real action.
No rail must be built or funded to Galilee Basin. Galilee basin must not be developed by Adani (ethically bankrupt) or any other mine. Will differentiate ALP from Libs. Gratitude of many Australians would follow, as for proposal re anti-corruption body.

I rang the Shorten office. I was disappointed but hardly surprised with his staffer’s evasion of the real issue. He made some comments regarding their stance on Adani but refused to address the real issue, that being how the Carmicheal Coal Mine is purely a distraction. Until Labor starts going public with their knowledge of Flat Earth they won’t be getting my vote! Those Labor dogs and their Tory cousins (who quarrel in the public eye but shake hands behind closed doors) think they can keep the masses oppressed with the round Earth lie. Go outside, look out to the distance, and see if you can see any ‘curve’. It doesn’t exist, THERE IS NO CURVE! The entire ruling class bases their power off keeping the masses obedient and uneducated and it is SAD that the common people are blissful in their ignorance. Wake up you foolish Lemmings and tear the wool from your eyes. The Earth is flat and until we band together and put the necks of the lying politicians (who perpetuate our oppression) under the blade of a guillotine we will not be free to exist as the beings our creator intended us to be. WAKE UP!

Phoned the electoral office of Shayne Neumann just after 5.00pm today but was too late to to speak to any of his staffers. I left my name and phone number with a message about the proposed Adani coal mine. If it is approved, the Adami coal mine would be a threat to Great Barrier Reef, underground water supplies, ecosystem services and native plants and animals. Australia needs to reduce its carbon footprint by shifting to renewable power generation instead of adding more carbon emissions by sending coal to be burned overseas. The ALP must help to stop the Adani mine.
