Adani are the dickwads trying to build the Carmichael coal mine in Australia.
If you’re up for a dirty aftertaste in your mouth that only sucking on coal can match, I’ve written about them before here and here and here and here and here and here.
“Coalmining company Adani asked a Queensland court for orders that would have allowed its representatives to conduct an unannounced search at the family home of an environmental activist.
“But the supreme court rejected the move, noting the search could result in “humiliation and family distress” for Ben Pennings and others.
“Adani said on Wednesday it was suing Pennings, the national spokesperson of the group Galilee Blockade, which has sought to disrupt the operations of Adani, its suppliers and contractors.
“The former Greens leader Bob Brown released a statement on Thursday, which said the legal action would “send a shudder through every Australian who values democracy, free speech and the right to peaceful protest”.
One would hope that at least 50% of Australians are still on board with these three concepts.
Ben Pennings:
“Adani’s ‘attack dog’ legal strategy is well known. They want to silence dissent about their destructive thermal coal project that a majority of Australians oppose.
“Adani has already bankrupted traditional owner Adrian Burragubba. I will not let a massive multinational company threaten or bankrupt my family.”
Adani:
“Adani said its decision to launch legal action against Pennings was “needed to ensure our business can continue to deliver jobs and opportunities to regional Queensland communities at a time when they were needed most”.
How about instead delivering us some fresh air, cooler temperatures, and slightly less-apocalyptic forest fires, you muppety bunch of slimebags?
Don’t be like Adani.
Be better.
