Disrupt Burrup Hub convenes silent protest outside Woodside HQ to call out VRO’s and police repression
More than 20 Disrupt Burrup Hub campaigners have held a silent protest outside Woodside corporate headquarters in Perth on Monday morning to call out the use of police repression, gag orders and civil litigation threats to silence attention on Woodside’s Burrup Hub.
“These Disrupt Burrup Hub campaigners were ambushed by counter-terror police outside the house of Woodside’s CEO while trying to send a message about our future. Now they have been hit with VROs that stop them speaking about Woodside’s Burrup Hub, the Woodside CEO or about what happened outside her house. What happened outside her house was that WA Police were acting as private security for the Woodside CEO and ambushed one nineteen year old woman with a message about her future.”
“They are now trying to silence the truth about Woodside’s Burrup Hub from coming out. The truth about Woodside’s Burrup Hub is it is a climate, cultural and natural disaster, and we all need to speak up to protect our sacred Country and tribal lands.”
