No to uranium mining in West Australia

Premier Colin Barnett’s legacy could last 25,000 yearsMarch 14, 2009 — tony serve

The Premier is a decent man.

I’ve come to know him a little through decades of interviews while he was in government and opposition, backbench and front.

W.A. children are still suffering from lead poisoning from an ore transport safety debacle in Esperance port.

We are still paying for the safety and maintenance failure in the Veranus gas disaster. And the barnett Government says it wants to move yellowcake - please.

Then there’s the problem of nuclear waste and proliferation, of depleted uranium.

Barack Obama has acknowledged the US can’t store it’s own waste, Pangea is on record as naming W.A. and the Northern territory as its preferred dumping grounds for nuclear waste - and there’s more.

We have economical and totaly renewable energy sources in abundance - we do not need and will not stand for uranium mining in W.A.

Note to Colin: sorry mate but you’re badly informed.

It’s uranium NO, canal/pipeline YES, and don’t get me started on you abandoning the Burrup Rock Art even though you feel it’s wrong.

India and Pakistan are at “swords drawn,” North Korea has renewed it’s threat to attack the south, Iran’s playing funny buggers, Iraqi kids are deformed by depleted uranium, terrorsts are stashing stolen isotopes - and you want to dig the stuff up and sell it to anyone who says they’ll be nice.

I am actively helping the anti-nuclear group ANAWA and all allied groups and individuals to do whatever it takes to overturn this madness.
