Stop Gillard's Carbon Tax

Help Us Stop The Left's smears! Thank you for your support opposing the Gillard-Brown Carbon-Dioxide Tax Hike. Over 25,000 Australians have now signed our petition opposing this unnecessary and destructive tax, and we know that for every signatory there are over 1000 silent supporters. This is just the beginning - people’s rallies across the country are already taking place, and our opponents are running scared. GetUp, the multi-million dollar far-left professional advocacy group, just sent a desperate, panicked email to their paid protestor base begging for more money to engage in paid rallies against us. Despite having millions of dollars at their disposal, they know the Australian people have clued up to their game. So they are running scared. In a desperate bid, they have resorted to defaming us, and are blatantly lying just so they can beg for more big-money donors to achieve their radical ideological agenda. Just see what they are saying: “Shock-jocks and ultra conservative groups like the 'Australian Tea Party' have just announced a rally against climate action … - and they're collecting money for a local TV and radio scare-campaign too… Across the country, ultra-rightwing politicians, radio shock-jocks and corporate polluter lobbyists are trying to engineer a dangerous lie - that Australians are mobilising against climate action. They've ripped it straight from the playbook of the Tea Party in the USA. […] We may not have mining magnates, carbon czars nor polluters' press on our side, but we do have the numbers. Together, each of us chipping in, our sum total will be far greater than its parts - and able to match the polluter lobby's campaign where it counts: out on the streets and on the air. Will you fund the fight for our future with $10 a week until we win the battle for a price on carbon? With your $10 a week we'll be able to rebuff every attempt by the anti-climate campaign to win the battle for public opinion - like we did on Saturday. Together we'll: Hold events like the 8,000 strong rally in Melbourne to dwarf rallies against climate action. This costs real money: insurance and first-aid, staging, sound systems, power-generators, placards, posters etc.Commission investigative research to expose the vested corporate interests and dirty money that's funding the campaign against climate action Produce rapid-response radio and TV ads to counter fear with facts - particularly in the Independents' electorates, which are being targeted for ad scare-campaigns against climate action. Build cutting-edge online tools to help you effectively advocate for climate action: connecting to talk-back radio, calling politicians and writing to voters in battleground electorates. . All we're waiting for are the funds to hit 'go'. Are you a “right wing extremist” as GetUp Says? Are you a “mining magnate”? Are you a “carbon czar”? We didn’t think so. The only “massive force mobilizing all their resources” are the Australian people –and that is what is driving them crazy. Let us be clear: These people will stop at nothing to keep their snout in the trough – and two front trotters as well! Truth means nothing to them; they will do anything to cling onto power. Which is why they are begging for donations totaling hundreds of dollars a year. We are up against big money. GetUp is a multi-million dollar organisation. We just can’t compete with it financially. Our supporters are just regular Australians. But we have truth on our side. And that is why we shall prevail. We may be outnumbered financially, but with the people on our side we can not lose. Make No Mistake: The multi-million dollar professional protestors of GetUp are terrified for a reason. They know that Australians are waking up to their agenda. And that no matter how many protestors they buy, we shall prevail. Join us and send Canberra a message by coming to next week’s protests. Our future depends upon it. Please visit our website for futher information. We may not have the money to compete with the left, but your attendance wil send a clear message to the media: they may have the money, but we have the people and truth on our side! Timothy Andrews Managing Editor Menzies House PS: Please consider coming to one of the anti-carbon-tax rallies coming up in your city. It will take some time, but the message will be worth it. PPS: A few of our supporters have kindly donated their personal money and time to create some stickers and flyers for us. Please email usif you wish us to send a few.
