NOTICE OF FORTHCOMING EVENT IN SYDNEY:

SYDNEY GREENS FORUM, "SUBVERSION OF DEMOCRACY"

6.30pm Thursday 17th November@ The Mori Gallery, 168 Day St, Sydney (near Cockle Bay, Darling Harbour)

The Subversion of Democracy: What we can do about the Assault on Freedom.

Speakers include:

* TONY KEVIN (Visiting Fellow, ANU; SIEV X campaigner)

* KEYSAR TRAD (Islamic Friendship Association of Australia)

* KERRY NETTLE (Federal Greens Senator, NSW)

The public service politicised. Parliamentary process debased. Muslims targeted for house arrest. New shoot-to-kill powers. Political dissent labelled as sedition. Orwell's 1984, or Australia circa 2005 ? With democratic institutions being eroded and the era of the police state upon us, we ask how we got to this stage and how we can start to take back the rights that politicians have stolen from us? Come along and join the discussion.
