Dear Voter
During the twenty years I knew him, Peter Garrett opposed uranium mining, the Pine Gap spy facility, logging of native forests and nuclear powered ships being allowed into Australian ports.

Not any more. He is now part of the Labor machine. This week in Melbourne Labor rolled out Peter to attack the Greens. That’s because in this age of climate change the Greens’ environment policies are rapidly attracting Labor and Liberal voters.

The Greens remain strong on the principles Peter once sang about.

In Victoria the Greens have preferenced Labor in 60 seats and the Liberals in none. In the others we are leaving it to the voters by having split tickets favouring neither Labor nor Liberal.

But now Labor’s Peter Garrett has written to voters in key Melbourne seats falsely indicating that the Greens pro Labor preference decision is in fact pro Liberal. This is brutal, Labor machine politics. Don’t fall for it.

Labor’s Peter Garrett is not Midnight Oil’s Peter Garrett or the Australian Conservation Foundation’s Peter Garrett. He is now an anti Greens campaigner.

Ignore him.   Vote Green.
Bob Brown
Australian Greens Leader
