July Raid and news
Hello again,
For those of you who don’t know, plenty of things have happened in recent times - not only has Independant Senator Nick Xenophon gotten a Senate inquiry into the tax laws surrounding charities and religions, but Scientology got themselves completely hammered in said inquiry. When asked to explain why their profits had dropped from over $2 million in 2007 to $304,000 in 2008 after being made to report to a new charities commission, their spokesperson, Mike Ferris, explained this as merely being an exchange rate fluctuation. Which is kinda suss, seeing as it is almost an 80% drop in the exchange rate, something anyone knows would have completely crippled the New Zealand economy. He also made a major footbullet of explaining how it had a minimal effect on their runnings - which was contrary to the Australian chapter who claimed it would ruin them with unwanted litigation (maybe that means because they’re on the right side of the docket?).
Anyway, down to the nitty-gritty for Sydney. The next major protest is on the 17th of July, details are as follows:
11:00am - Meet at Belmore Park (you should see us - we’ll stand where the red circle is in the picture).
12:00pm - Leave Belmore Park for Eddy Ave.
12:45pm - Leave Eddy Ave for Hercules St.
1:35pm - Leave Hercules St for Railway Square via Devonshire Tunnel.
1:40pm - Arrive at Railway Square.
2:00pm - Leave Railway Square for Greek St.
2:20pm - Arrive Greek St.
4:00pm - Finish and go to pub.
A final update before we leave you on your hopefully merry way. We’ve recently set up a Facebook group to help encourage more people to join us. You can find it over on Facebook by clicking on the image below:
