When the dust settles - Honi Soit

When the dust settles
May 31, 2021
There’s a narrative by this stage familiar to anyone who has followed the climate wars. The media rolls footage of the dusty mining regions of Australia its hard-scrabble men and women, usually to camouflage visiting politicians in a hi-vis cosplay of populist virtue. Counterposed to them are the ‘woke capital-city greenies’, fighting tooth and nail to destroy regional mining communities, blinded by their privileges. Recently, this dichotomy has been challenged through the mainstream promotion and appeal of ‘Green New Deal’ policies that seek to unite environmentalism and working-class politics once again. Though, in the Australian context, policymakers are seeking to transition back towards fossil fuels, not away from them. Recently the Hunter Valley has increased its coal production by 25% in 10 years while Australia has quintupled its liquified natural gas exports.

Australia live news: Covid breach at Brisbane airport after traveller tests positive; Brittany Higgins to meet with PM | Australia news

New Zealand website Stuff first reported the breach, which occurred on a flight on Friday morning.
The man went from Rarotonga to Auckland yesterday. Restriction-free travel is permitted between the Cook Islands and New Zealand, but a person must stay for at least 14 days before transiting to Australia.
Instead, the man caught a flight to Perth hours after arriving in New Zealand. The breach was reported shortly after the flight departed.

Air New Zealand said in a statement to Stuff:
We have been made aware of a passenger on board NZ175 Auckland–Perth today who is ineligible for quarantine-free travel to Australia.

On Wednesday morning, as Australians were waking to news of the verdict in the trial of Derek Chauvin – the police officer whose murder of George Floyd last year sparked a resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement – New South Wales Police Minister David Elliott was in the middle of his own media blitz about BLM.
Elliott wasn’t, however, commenting on the outcome in the Chauvin trial. Nor was he reflecting on the demands of the movement in Australia – demands that became even more urgent following the death of five Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in custody in a six-week period earlier this year.

NSW Aboriginal deaths in custody inquiry recommends end to 'police investigating police' | Australia news

The committee also determined that the Bail Act should be reformed to include an express consideration of Aboriginality as a provision to ensure people were not left on remand.
Aboriginal defendants are 20.4% more likely to be refused bail by police than non-Aboriginal defendants in similar cases, according to a recent NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (Bocsar) study of more than 500,000 bail decisions made in NSW between 2015 and 2019.
Guardian Australiaâs Deaths Inside project found that, nationally, more than half (54%) of all Aboriginal people who died in custody between 2008 and 2021 were on remand.
The NSW committee recommended the urgent removal of hanging points in prison cells and urged the government to commit to a deadline for doing so. It cited the case of Tane Chatfield, who died in hospital two days after he was found hanging in his cell at the Tamworth correctional centre in September 2017.

After a NSW Parliamentary Committee into the high levels of First Nations people in custody tabled its findings and 39 recommendations today, activists held a speak-out with the overarching message that justice would be won by the people and not the state.
The inquiry was established after thousands took to the streets in June 2020 at the height of Black Lives Matter movement, and handed down its report on the 30th anniversary of the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody.

Gomeroi, Dunghutti and Biripi woman and protest organiser Tameeka Tighe says every time she hears of another death she worries it's someone close to her.
"It makes me wonder if it's my brother, it makes me wonder what my connection is to that person and it makes me wonder how many more until this government takes it seriously," she told AAP.
"Do we have to see another 30 years and another 400 deaths? What is that we need to be an emergency?"
More than 470 Indigenous people have died in custody since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody published its final report on 15 April, 1991.

Thousands ignore NSW police to protest on Invasion Day

Solidarity with First Nations peoples and taking a stand against the racism of Australia Day was high on their agenda.
The protest organisers — Justice for David Dungay, Fighting In Solidarity Towards Treaties (FISTT), Indigenous Social Justice Association, Gamilaraay Next Generation, National Union of Students Anti-Racist Department and the Australian Student Environment Network — had repeatedly asked to meet police to discuss the COVID-19 safety and other plans. They were ignored.
As the crowd poured into Djabargalli on an extremely hot day, the police changed tack after having earlier declared the protest was “unauthorised”. The police and government media barrage in the lead-up to the protest would have kept many others away.
