  1. We saved country and doomed our people to a lifetime of government support and lost opportunity.

    1. Sneaky surveys,rigged votes,going behind peoples backs,saying things like,"we're going to steal someone elses country",cutting people out including rightful TO's,telling people,"you have no say",and other examples of how not to go about creating opportunities.

      Because whether you like it or not YOU WILL NOT CREATE OPPORTUNITIES BY SCREWING PEOPLE OVER.

      Message to Hunter,Parriman,and the KLC - "TRY INCLUDING EVERYONE NEXT TIME".

  2. Woodside's withdrawal & the Goolarabooloo victory is such good news. Our heartfelt thanks to every single person who has supported the David in this David & Goliath battle. It is a battle which should never have been necessary but once started had to be won. Culture was always more important than money & always will be. Well done everyone, especially Red Hand who has done so much.
    Wish we were up there to celebrate with you all.

    Ian & Julie

  4. Good morning Redhand,and congratulations to all the campaigners.
    Just looking through the papers this morning, and there are dozens of stories with dozens of angles,but they all seem to miss the point.(no pun intended).Apart from Geoffrey Cousins,a couple of Green ones,and of course some from the "Real" TO's.

    All my life I have worked in construction and the one thing I found strange about this campaign was that all the intelligent reporting was to be found on Green blogs!

    Anyone who cared to look back at Voeltes career would have no trouble in tracing the true cause of this disaster,BUT of course in big time business circles you DO NOT sully another mans reputation - it's not the done thing,old chap.

    In reality it all comes down to one thing "Poor Site Selection",and that is that.

    And we can add to that Pluto and Sunrise and for that matter the NWS gas plant,although not Voeltes fault it set the precedent for poor site selection and an attitude that environment,culture and heritage had no importance against the financial wishes of oil and gas majors and miners.

    And it is this very attitude that bought their plans unstuck.

  5. A selection of this mornings headlines in the big papers.

    The West...
    Woodside could opt for floating LNG option.
    Video : Thousands of Woodside jobs lost.
    Ships to keep Browse afloat.

    The Age/SMH...
    Costs in focus after Browse project dumped.
    Browse delay may mean cash to shareholders.

    ABC...
    Howes slams Woodside for 'sacrificing jobs for profits'.

    Barnett backs Johnson despite outburst.("What we've seen happen about James Price Point today shows that those people who are concerned about his leadership style have a very good point.").

    Woodside looking at alternative Browse options.
    Competitiveness behind project's demise: Costello.
    Cheap fracked gas killed the Kimberley gas hub.

    Big Pond...
    Woodside move triggers extreme reactions.

    ...........


    SO Who's to blame?

    Well everybody apparently except The Greens and the protestors who played no part in it at all.
    HOW strange that is.

    The people who are really to blame,Voelte and Ferguson,don't get a mention!

    How strange is that?

    So much for quality reporting!

  6. These all from The Australian :

    High costs kill off Woodside's $50bn Browse LNG plant.

    A wake-up call from Woodside.

    Woodside eyes $10bn bounty.

    Cracks appear in Browse united front.

    Sense prevails as economic reality bites.

    Great Green fallacy revealed.

    Losing hub 'puts us back a generation'.

    .....


    Nothing about the poor site selection having been the true reason the project fell over.

    Fair to say the Australian media are F*cked.

    Fair to say "you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows"

  11. Congratulations Joe, Phillip, Theresa, Richard and all you wonderful people who stood up so heroically for country, who refused to sell out no matter what. You are true heroes, in every way. Your fellow Aboriginals who went the other way ought to be ashamed of themselves for it was you who did what that late, great elder Paddy Roe always said was essential for the present and future of the whole world, for all living things and for all the kids to come - "Gotta look after this country the proper way. This is living country where all life began, right here ... it's a very big thing. Here, we lookin' after the bottom of everything (the very foundation of all life - the spirit)... yair." And all you beautiful people, keep standing high, too, because the greedy bastards who have no real reverence for all of life don't give up easily. They'll be thinking of what else they can do to get that land, not realising the more they think the more they will lose, in every way. No-one can take on That Fella and beat him, no-one. What has happened is proof of that and a clear warning to anyone who ever again tries, for whatever reason, to interfere with or destoy the sacred songcycle that goes all the way from the Goolarabooloo land through Uluru to the other side.
