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

Shorten.
Talked to staffer. He acknowledged my request that federal labor rule out the mine on climate grounds. He basically acknowledged that Labor had not ruled the mine out yet (only helped to bring the NAIF loan down) I said that this was not enough and that extracting coal was morally wrong and a vote decider for me.

I called Bill Shorten’s Office and spoke to a staffer who said he’d be happy to pass on y message asking Bill to consider the environment and commercial interests, both of which are not served by the Adani mine going on. I asked that he move Labor to blockthis proposal.

I called Tanya Pilbersek, and spoke to Imogen in her office. She was most appreciative of my call. I made it clear that I would not support Labour if they supported Adani! She was actually in agreement with me that it could well be an environmental disaster, and said that many people had called and they were taking note. Ruth

Bill Shortens office. The individual whom I spoke with, confirmed that Bill Shorten will open the mine if it is viable. He took my name and said he will pass on my concerns. Absolutely corrupt.

Tanya Plibersek, Chris Bowen, Tony Burke, Mark Dreyfus, Anthony Albernese, Mark Butler, Bill Shorten left messages with polite staffers who promised to pass on my messages and thanked me for my call. I said that there was a huge amount of opposition to the mine and hoped the Labor party would oppose it. I also said I felt it was a great issue to differentiate the Labor party from the Liberal/Nat party.

He told me Labor is not a cabinet, if I want to influence Cabinet I need to call the government. I felt uneducated. I said I don’t often call politicians, and I may have used the wrong word, but I felt it was worthwhile asking Mr Shorten not to support the Adani mine. He said of course it was worth calling, and he would pass it on. He said there was no federal meeting today… maybe the Queensland Cabinet?
Diane 2018-01-31 14:38:45 +1100
