From Sydney to Boggabri: Smash ANZ and Whitehaven Coal

Submitted by autonomousactions on Tue, 29/04/2014 - 2:34am

Throughout Februrary and March 2014 dozens of ANZ billboards were vandalised across Sydney. Numerous ANZ branch facades were painted with slogans denouncing Whitehaven coal and the destruction of Leard state forest while their ATM card slots were glued shut. During the Mardi Gras festivities numerous ANZ “GAYTM’s” were vandalised with paint and in the days following the parade two of the pinkwashed machines on Oxford St were smashed with a metal bar.

Toni Cavanagh, Kay Docherty, 'Angel' of Belanglo Forest: Could this man be responsible?

Submitted by Anon on Fri, 11/04/2014 - 2:33pm

This video is worth a watch. Certainly this man, of whom I have some personal knowledge, is highly suspect. As he's over 70 now, police should act soon to interview him and get his DNA or it will be too late. There are at least two witnesses who have given statements to police regarding his serial killing spree and three other probable witnesses the police don't seem too keen to interview.
