Cash For Country

This important video covers events in the first month of the onground protest and blockade camp as Woodside attempts preliminary works at James Price Point. The community was outraged at these pre-emptive works undertaken without all proper permits in place and against the wishes of the Traditional Custodians of the country who are in this video. After 30 days holding Woodside contractors out a massive contingent of police were flown in and sent against local people, the events that followed shocked, angered and galvanised the community.
