56: A Christmas Convoy (The Tale of the ‘Stop Adani’ Convoy)

Emerald and Tom’s weird Christmas stories. Our hosts have been meaning to unpack one of the most contentious protests in recent years - Bob Brown’s Stop Adani convoy before the 2019 election! (3:16) Did it cause Labor to lose the unloseable election? Did it do good in the end after all?  Finally, a call to action (51:33). Merry Christmas! Full video version of this episode available on https://www.youtube.com/c/SeriousDangerAU  New Patreon bonus ep just released! Emerald and Tom’s first ever live show together, recorded live at Greens National Conference in Brisbane! They begin with a reading of Andrew Bolt’s sane and measured attack on a sacred cow that has had it far too easy for far too long - Finding Nemo. Then Michael Berkman, Greens MP for Maiwar in Brisbane and EMERALD’S BOSS, joins to talk about his recent ethics referral and the scary future of protest in Australia. https://www.patreon.com/SeriousDangerAU  Links - https://standing-our-ground.org/  Floodcast Episode 12 - Of Convoys And Coal Mines - https://soundcloud.com/floodmedia/of-convoys-and-coal-mines  https://www.stopadani.com/  Bill Wilkie: The Daintree Blockade: The Battle for Australia's Tropical Rainforests https://www.daintreeblockade.com.au/index.html  Produced by Michael Griffin Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and Patreon @SeriousDangerAU Seriousdangerpod.comSupport the show: http://patreon.com/seriousdangerauSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
