🍻 Beers not Bombs
Stopping AUKUS and Astra Aerolab - No Transition to Weapons
Join Senator David Shoebridge along with the Newcastle Greens for a relaxed Politics in the Pub session, although we recognise the topic can make one feel a little on edge!
David is in the know about just how much money Australia is spending on the unfair and unjust AUKUS deal, the impact it has on global relations and the possible impacts on the Hunter Region specifically.
We'll also touch on the deadly Astra Aerolab project (due to produce missiles for export by 2027) and the ways in which our region has been earmarked for a transition from coal...to weapons.
Expect great conversation on a serious topic, and the chance to ask your questions about the impact of militarisation on our communities.
📍 Come grab a drink, pull up a chair, and join the discussion - hard topics are much easier to stomach when we tackle them together.
Our region deserves a transition to meaningful, sustainable and ethical economic prosperity, let's make it happen.
