Cycle for clean energy or Cycle Against the Nuclear Cycle (CANC) - Anne Goddard added an entry about Stop the nuclear industry:

Today we (Nat and I) asked our boss if we could take some time off work to join the peace convergence 22, 23, 24th June, Qld, Australia
http://peaceconvergence.com

We had committed to going before getting the jobs.
Further, I asked if I could take extra time off to do the Rockhampton to Bundaberg leg of the CANC ride (some further 2 weeks).

Unfortunately, I cannot go all the way to Canberra again, as i am casual, no work, no pay. I am eager to return to the job as I like it and all of the team in the packing shed are wonderful people.
On the other hand, we do not want to lose our jobs … and as the recent rains have really slowed the season, i hope they will give us a favourable decision on Wednesday, when we return to work.

My family, friends, neighbours and I are attending the peace convergence to draw attention to the facts that;
1. we need safe sustainable, renewable and reliable energy supplies … with the aim of “benign” output.
2. we do not need nuclear ships in our harbours.
3. we must not allow our troops to be exposed and unmonitored in the vicinty of Depleted Uranium weapons either on the battle field, or anywhere else.
4. we do not need nuclear energy
5. we do not need nuclear waste.[Stop the nuclear industry]

I hope you will consider joining us.

Warm regards
Anne

PM's policy punishes women

While women in the Australian Parliament consolidate cross-party legislative powers, the policies of misogynist Prime Minister John Howard continue to marginalise and punish half the nation's citizens.

"The gender pay gap in the private-sector full-time labour market is widening, as is the gap between those on awards and those in the bargaining stream", according to a report by the Women in Social and Economic Research group at Curtin Business School.

Moreover, "The potential exists for gender inequities to grow."
