The Doctor – does he come from another time?

Posted on July 24, 2015 by CaTⓋ

Dr Arthur Chesterfield-Evans is running for pre-selection as an Australian Greens Senate candidate. For you Greens members out there, 60% of whom apparently don’t vote at the pre-selection stage, TODAY IS THE DEADLINE, so after you learn who this man is, off your asses immediately and get your approval in before 5pm (in that special envelope). You might also like to visit Arthur’s website and hear the man speak, with a moving introduction from John Kaye, who called upon Arthur to join the Greens. Continue reading →

Posted on May 23, 2015 by CaTⓋ

I went to listen to the ROHINGYAN Appeal tonight in Sydney. They’ve been stripped of citizenship, driven off the land and killed by the hundreds of thousands since 1942. They are starved, reproduction is curbed and they are not allowed to own a phone. Continue reading →

Cryptoparty Like It’s 1984 – Love is Security

Posted on March 25, 2015 by CaTⓋ

An evening of learning, proposed by Federal Greens Senator Scott Ludlam, to keep us safe online. And what an excellent job Dan Bryant did of making both the why and the how clear in his workshop. Dan is a ‘conscientious objector’ systems engineer from the private sector, who joined the Greens to help refugees and keep the internet a fair playing field. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEvO2jtGaSQ&list=PLto4JJ09vtzWBvwzJvuH76dRjtRjB0BdH Continue reading →
