Blackmail for the purposes of stifling Australians debate, is not free speech. It is bully tactics and blackmail.

Blackmail for the purposes of stifling Australians debate, is not free speech. It is bully tactics and blackmail.

It's NOT "blackmail" - if it's open and transparent - and not done in secret
The open letter, on behalf of over half a million Australians, is so far asking for a "line in the sand" on these member companies' stance on climate change action

Are they FOR action - or for NO action ?

We will not allow the state to force us to tender competitively for the rights to jobs, resources, food, in an artificially induced scarcity environment. We refuse to compete, we refuse the state skills, we refuse the state productivity and we refuse the state cooperation on their illegal ideological Marxist crusade. We will not fight to survive we will not compete.

If I had 300,000 foreign members and 10000 local members, and tried to tell a company that my 310,000 members were going to boycott them. Then that is blackmail as it is untruthful.

There is a reason getup dont get their members to direct email to a company. It is because if getup get the members to email the company directly, then the company would realise that most of the messages were coming from overseas and of the local members, there wouldnt be many sending a message at all.

Exactly. Thank heavens for ordinary Australians like Mario, the chef at the Lavenders, who continues to employ staff and serve quality HACCAP and Australian-Standards certified cuisine, when it is predicted that prices under the proposed carbon tax will raise across the board by over 100%.

These climate change fearmongers will continue to lie and stir things up while ordinary Australians get on with the job of making this country work.

They're NOT 'climate change' fearmongers...they're carbon tax 'fearmongers'....an entirely seperate issue...'ACTION' on climate change is radically different to 'helping' the government 'return to a surplus'..which is the point to the carbon tax...AND the ONLY point to it..

Yes, but the carbon tax fearmongers work on the basis that climate change is actually happening and will end the world as we know it.

When ordinary Australian businesses like Lavenders just get on with the job of employing people and making the economy run - when prices will double or even triple under the fearmongers' carbon tax.

If prices rise by 150% across the board, I'd be looking at about $10 a box. I just couldn't afford that. I'm not a millionaire, you know. I certainly won't be able to afford resturants, that's for sure.
