Anarchists attack Australia

In the early hours of January 26th we tipped a bucket of paint on a statue celebrating the First Fleet in Brighton Le Sands, Botany Bay.

We later threw numerous paint bombs at a massive statue of James Cook in Hyde Park, who according the plaque on the monument “discovered this territory in 1770”.

We sprayed stencils reading: "FUCK AUSSIE PRIDE", "DESTROY COLONIAL AUSTRALIA" & "PROUDLY UNAUSTRALIAN" throughout the city, Redfern, Newtown, Marrickville, Sydenham and at Bicentennial Park and Carss Park, where ‘Australia Day’ celebrations were to take place.

The community radio stations with no future

Scores of smaller community radio stations could be left out of the digital future altogether.

As the big industry players move to digital broadcasting many stations may end up with no future and have to shut down.

Commercial radio, The ABC and the larger metro-wide community stations are currently making the transition to transmitting on digital radio.

About 30 large city based community stations can now be heard on both traditional radio (FM and AM) and also on digital radio.
