COMPANY

A picket has been called for the offices of the

construction company working on the Narangba Nuclear

unconcerned by of the risks involved in bringing

nuclear industry to our region and have not considered

the hazards that food irradiation creates for our

communities and our food supply. Gather outside

Statham's office in Woolloongabba to voice your

protest at their working on the project and demand

that they refuse to build the plant. Contact: steph @
