In short:
NSW Police have arrested 138 people for allegedly defying directions not to enter the shipping channel in Newcastle Harbour.
The Port Authority has temporarily paused shipping movements due to safety concerns.
What’s next:
A police operation on the harbour is continuing.
At this stage I won’t be sharing any details, prison will be after court and sentencing. I think everyone is currently out on bail at the moment with court dates in early-mid January.
If people end up in prison (unlikely imo) and they’re comfortable with me sharing details then I’ll post something. I’d be a bit concerned about people taking the opportunity to send in nasty letters though so don’t hold your breath. Perhaps I’ll be able to collect messages online to send through.
I just wanted to take the chance to further push our cause and get some information out to the people that the news media refuses to cover, I’m just one of the 5000 people who took part. I’ve been in activism for a little while now, but this experience has changed me so I’ll be more actively posting things I’m involved in. Check out my insta if that’s something youd be interested in, it’s pretty bare for now and I’ll be taking some time to rest, but I’ve no plans of stopping.
