CHUFFED | RAISING | Awareness, Support and Funds for Arrestees from End Fossil Fuels Protests

[Edited extract from public address]

One of the harshest laws to stifle protest was recently rushed through, this time by the South Australian government in response to Extinction Rebellion’s headline-grabbing direct action. 

It gives me chills after the South Australian mining minister’s promise to the oil and gas industry that the state was “at your service.” 

Instead of serving the public, the state government wants to serve future protesters with outrageous $50,000 fines - 66x the current maximum fine! 

The protesters say “We’ve spent our lives being polite and complying with rules but no matter how serious climate change becomes, nothing seems to change. We feel there is now no option but to use non-violent civil disobedience.”

Will you chip in to defend their right to protest in court?

These parents, grandparents and workers bravely demanded protection for the people, places and creatures we all hold dear. While punitive laws are being rushed through across the country, your donation can protect everyday people when they take on vested interests for all of us.

Please give what you can to support their courage,
