Blacktown Greens have been a positive force in Blacktown for the past 15 years and the reason for that is quite simply that we have a profound understanding of local issues as they are the same issues which we live with year in and year out.

See you there?
PROTEST
1pm Sunday 7 June
Hyde Park north
Following the shocking scenes of Israel's kidnapping, abuse and torture of Gaza Flotilla activists, including 11 Australians - treatment that we know is carried out much more brutally against 10,000 Palestinian prisoners - join us to rally next Sunday and demand the Australian Government finally:
SANCTION ISRAEL NOW
- End the two-way arms trade
- Expel the lying ambassador
This rally will also mark the anniversary of the 1967 Naksa, on 5 June, when Israel extended its illegal occupation into Gaza, the West Bank, and the Golan Heights, expelling thousands more Palestinians from their homes and imposing the brutal military occupation that continues today.
FREE PALESTINE!

Come to Town Hall at 5.30 p.m. for 6.15 for the nationwide vigil for Kumanjayi Little Baby.
Greens NSW member Lynda-June Coe writes "We're coming together to watch the sunset, to give each other strength, and to mourn this precious little girl. Please come if you can, wear pink and bring a battery candle.
"If you can't be there in person, I ask you to light a candle at 5:30pm this Thursday and hold this little one in your heart. Let her know she was seen. Let her family know they are not alone.
"All children deserve to be safe, loved and protected. When one of our little ones is lost, we all carry that grief. And we carry it together."

Most people were already struggling to make ends meet. Now Trump and Netanyahu's illegal war on Iran has sent petrol prices skyrocketing with predictions of even higher fuel and food prices around the corner.
After pressure from the Greens and the community, the Victorian Government declared April fare-free while the people of Tassie have been given 3 full months fare-free to ease the cost-of-living. And, crucially, to save fuel for where it's needed most.
The Minns Labor Government is under pressure to do the same but they’re saying No Way. Well that’s not good enough in this crisis. So let’s ramp up the pressure!
