A Wave of Action to Demilitarise Newcastle
| Margie at Wage Peace , 14 Dec 25 |
We are so proud of the Muloobinba/Newcastle Crew who organised 7 actions last week to draw attention to their town supporting the genocide in Palestine. Newcastle is key to the transport of F35 parts. Folx travelled from all across the country to support Demilitarise Newcastle to say no to the community’s transition from coal to weapons.
A Week of Actions: Earth Care Not Warfare
Lockheed Martin in Williamtown is the logistics hub for the supply of ‘just-in-time’ F35 consumable parts for Israel. From here the F35 parts & components are sent direct to Sydney, then via commercial Thai Airways flights to TelAviv. We say NO! The F35=Genocide!
During the Weapons Outta Newy Week a SLOW bike tour was organised through all the weapons sites at the airport via BAE, LOCKHEED, BOEING, KONGSBERG, and a new greenfield development, ASTRO AEROLAB.
On Tuesday we attended the office of the Council, which owns the AEROLAB site.
And on Wednesday we walked from the old coal infrastructure down to Varley Engineering to symbolise the shift from coal to weapons. Varley are increasing the weapons side of their business. Varley could stick with ambulances and move into renewables, but instead are taking Newcastle into the dangerous arena of weapons exports.
