Greens MP Jeremy Buckingham said:
“I’m
proud to stand with activists in defence of climate and country, and
represent all those people around Australia and internationally who want
to stop the
Adani coal project,” said
Greens MP Jeremy Buckingham.
“Although we are MPs
from NSW this is an issue of national and international significance.
Adani represents a line in the sand for all those concerned about
climate change who do not want to see a new coal precinct opened up in
Australia.
Green
MPs have a proud tradition of participating in peaceful, non-violent
direct action and we stand with all those opposed to this crazy coal
mine,” said
Greens MP Jeremy Buckingham
Greens MP Dawn Walker said:
“It
was a very important day for me, stopping work on the Adani mine and
being arrested with climate activists who understand the importance of
preventing this
destructive project from going ahead,” said Greens MP Dawn Walker.
“I
was proud to stand with traditional owners who have said ‘no means no’
to Adani, and made it clear they will not be surrendering their land and
water to
this coal corporation.
“Although
this mine is miles from anywhere, the eyes of all Australia are on it.
We have travelled days to get here but believe many more will follow.
