Huge Legal Drama (Patreon Early Version)
[Early Access]
Hello Patrons,
A bit of a different video for you this week. Due to a recent court win against Forestry NSW the door is now open to challenge corporations for environmental damage in court.
While some of the finer details are still being set up behind the scenes we are starting a legal fund with the purpose of funding admin costs for any lawyers who wish to take on environmental causes themselves. We had planned to have things up and running by now but just need a bit more time before we can publicly announce the fund and release this video.
The video is finished so we're giving you an early look at our plans, keep an eye out for this going live as it has the chance to make a huge and direct different to environmental causes in Australia.
Thank you all for your support and we hope you like the video! Don't share this around early.

How about nuclear waste? Story that John Howard “persuaded” by Dubbya, to accept unsolicited bid from Halliburton (on verge bankruptcy) to build extension of Ghan from Adelaide to Darwin. Purpose was nuke waste into Darwin with train to wherever long term nuke waste home in the ground. Could they bury it under Pine Gap to keep
Pretty cool, could someone take the NSW EPA to court over their conduct in regards to water testing with the fish kills?
Is the fund up and running yet? Thanks!
I’m already more than $70K behind the 8 ball for legal costs to defend a ‘non-defamation’ case which started when SOMEONE ELSE used my words from a private email, out of context, to instruct a ‘wide audience’ (of eight people hahaha), on how to make their own complaint to the DPIE. The DPIE are another government authority who are ‘immune’ to prosecution …… except by a member of the Police force or …… another ‘statutory authority’. Well well well. Who would have guessed? So yes, PLEASE donate to the fund to support this and other very-much-related issues of justice and democracy. Go Jordies and Go XD Law!
Thanks for sharing your story. I know it's not much conciliation, but I'm sorry to hear about the situation your in; which highlights many state, legal, institutional and constitutional problems that currently exist for all citizens - whether they know about it or not. One problem is we believe in the rhetoric we're taught about how Australia is different to other countries - like past communist ones, and only later we find ourselves inadvertently dealing with the exact same problems of bureaucratic-class elitism, surveillance and protection of privilege. I hope you have the strength and some support to endure. It's not any consolation I know, but in one way you're lucky to even have a court case. Others in similar situtions dealing with the same problems, but in other spheres, don't even have any legal options open to them - because the legal profession is barred from engaging in their plight. I hope you win!
Oh boy I'm so fkn ready
Would be good to have the fundraiser structure in place with DGR status pre-30 June. Giving away money so much better if tax deductible..
This is huge, too bad the Mainstream Media don't care. Same with the Victorian Government wanting to turn State Forests into National Parks. The latter is also worth doing a video on, especially the Nationals voters cracking it over the proposal
You guys are fkn champs, go jordies
Go for the throat.
Amazing work 🙌
Fantastic! Please look at salmon farming in Macquarie harbour. The Maugean skate does not have much time left. Honestly, how do you triage the species facing extinction in this country?
The old bait and switch, who could have seen that coming? Sorry, I tuned out when you stopped talking about Stormy Daniels' gliders! mm finger licking good.
Absolute legends ❤️
Thank you so much for this, can’t wait to share,…with Greens friends (😉), who I’m sure will shower you with dollars …
Awesome! I can't wait for the link, would love to share it around to my friends and family who aren't necessarily Jordy fans, but definitely interested in action against logging.
Wacky tobacky
Hell yeah
It's not the first and it's unlikely to be the last fundraiser you do - is there a way to setup some kind of charity that you could create tax deductible donations for? I'd assume you could raise significantly more funds that way. We like to do good, but we're also a bit selfish.
That would be great. I would be able to donate a lot more if could be tax deductable.
This is huge, great job promoting and driving this
