Leo thanks Brian Monk of Tara.

No one should stand for this. We need to understand facts have been twisted regarding how we stand up against these powerful corps and the security firms both public [police] and private. 

  To use force against those that violate us is not equal and reciprocal violence.  We have every right as a sovereign being on this planet to protect our person if violence is perpetrated against us and to use equal and reciprocal force.  NVDA is a con.  (in my opinion as it lacks this sacred masculine of Action)  From my observations this has kept a lot of people from protesting because what is the point of getting a record and a huge fine for nothing. 

 

 Thank you Brian Monk.

When I wrote and recorded this, I thought we might shake up peoples awareness about the value of this great nation to a point where they'd rise up and march on Canberra and bring this stupidity to an end.

I got shouted at and chased down the street by a team of CSG workers on vacation in Sydney, trolled and lied to by pro Fracking idiots in the comments on YouTube, and slapped on the back by those who appreciated it.

It was good to see the fuss created. But now we are at a standstill.

No matter what we say or do, these fuckers in government and oil and gas companies seem even more determined to 'win' their evil point than ever.

I salute the stand that guys like you and John Jenkyn are taking, but I'm not proud that so many of my fellow Australians are letting you down. I call on everyone reading this to raise their game, 'til we stop this evil forever.  from Leo Sayer.....

Leo has done a lot for us to get the word out but like all of us he is also miffed at the audacity of the government for turning its back on the people of the country and creating a second genocidal event with the indigenous for their sacred lands for mining as well as defending big banks crippling farmers and handing over this arable farming land to overseas interests in mining.

 The land must be healed for the people to be healed.

Brian is clearly saying this to people "how can you continue to trust this system". "All of the politicians are the same self serving, selfish, narcissistic persons who give with one hand and take twice as much with the other by the splendid use of dialectics.  

This is my interpretation, and I stand behind Brian with this opinion.  Although, we may differ in the manner in which we think it can be healed.  Personally,  I look forward to cultural change being manifested.  I see a vision for the earth, and the earth being put first and foremost.   This has to be done immediately, because a sick land has sick people. 

 The land must be healed for the people to be healed.

Brian Monk  facebook CSG HELL

Well, I guess most people who have seen me in videos and Youtube's have watched me crying, pretty much everywhere really. Well I'm at it again this morning. I just found the old digital camera and have gone for a stroll or stumble down memory lane, a sad sad journey.

Took me all the way back to when my grandchildren were only just becoming impacted by this filthy unconventional gas industry. Back to a time when I believed in government departments, back to a time when honest public servants could have saved impacts on my family, not by doing anything but their job properly.

It is slap you in the face obvious experience when you go back a few years and a lot of birthday images in a short while. Someone yesterday spoke of justice, we have experienced injustice at its extreme and know it will never be addressed.

To watch what is now alarmingly obvious as rashes appeared and went, a string of photos of kids with blood noses, young faces in distress and we didn't see it at the time, I cry in guilt and I shudder in anger at the same time if that makes sense. To go back to to a time when there was no thought of epileptic seizures, no fear of them, no sleepless nights because of them. No changed personality that appeared in reverse before my eyes.

Anyway, Australians have chosen to allow us, lots of us out here to become collateral damage, lots more to follow, tens of thousands to follow. No need for university studies, it happens before your eyes.

Imagine of Q Health did their job and tested humans, children, what about the gas inspectors who found no hydrocarbon in a bore that lit, what about the LNG enforcement unit who changed to the CSG compliance unit and again to something i cant remember and will again under the new government.  What about the CMC not investigating my complaint and in fact asking the very department I complained about to investigate not my complaint but one person who I already said was no doubt not corrupt just stupid.

So lets guess how many other families, how many other grand parents will have to look back at images of their lives changed forever because Australians said it was all worth it for the DEBT.

This industry creates more DEBT than it pays, we have the USA experience to prove that, but sadly we have no f@cking media to put it out to the public. Anyway, we were one of the first and that was before the industry was up and running, now I watch people around starting to fall like nine pins asking why were we not warned.

I did all I could think of to warn the population at large, you didn't listen, you said not in my backyard, we will use Brian's experience to warn our regions, and you should have. But every day the list of the HARMED grows, every day people flee, every day the government lies, the industry lies, every day.

I know people see me as an angry bitter disillusioned grandfather, I know I lash out often at those who don't deserve it, but i would say this simple fact, live my life and show me you could do better. Actually many of you WILL live my life, let me know how that goes.

The tears and the anger don't help, maybe some may save themselves using this warning, or maybe Australians will just say, why didn't someone warn us. This is a global assault for greed and control, don't worry I'm sure your polluticiians will save you.

Brians Videos and Johns court case.

BRIAN MONK is standing up the only way left really and speaking out for his mate John Jenkyn as well because to a large degree there seems to be a lack in organisation of who gets help and where.

Lock the Gate Page

"If you can't be there to support alarm bell & whistleblower John Jenkyn as he defends himself in court against ridiculous charges at 9am on Wednesday 7th Jan 2015 at Chinchilla Court House then please consider donating to help him get representation. He faces serious charges and cannot walk into the court room unrepresented."

DONATE HERE:

I think that is the crux of the problem here at hand.  In an organisation as big now as LTG have become one would think that there is a data base kept on upcoming court actions,  afterall this is where this fight was to be fought I thought,  at least this is what I was told at Glenugie.

It seems people have now rallied and one lady has made a delightful meme to detail out the issue at hand with John Jenkyn facing court on Wednesday in Chinchilla.

Brian resorted to posting all of the following videos with a plea to share them to as far as they will go. So all I can do is blog it and hope that others read this and take some notice of the real truth.

"Was going to bail from F.B. but think this is a far better idea, these videos are the truth, I suggest you share them around and try to wake up your regions. The pipe to nowhere clearly shows how easy it is to stop the gas industry, yet people ignore its simplicity. Fee simple title, no signature, no gas wells."  Brian Monk..

Government changes...

Brian Monk's original post where he details his abject frustration as what appears to be the reality of the situation from the point where he stands.

"Injustice. Today I went to a meeting and talked with so many feeling the impact of csg. For me it is heartbreaking watching people beginning to see how much their government has betrayed them. I have a feeling of helplessness and I realise the csg cancer takes all in its path. So we mount another local resistance and begin to plan strategies. It brings home to me how Australians have betrayed us. Not the gas companies, but Australians. And nothing days that more than to speak to John Jenkyn and realise he faces court with no support on Wednesday. When we can't even be bothered supporting those who go out of their way to try to get the truth out you realise how poor our organisations are. Who was out this week getting photos for us all to share around, probably only the two Johns and this is how we repay one of them. I hope the other doesn't read this because if he stops who's photos then. This is a bad world out here people, some days our fkd up organisation gets to me.  Brian Monk

Brian has reported an AQUIFER has blown in SE Queensland.

Brian Monk lives at #2 Hell Street in Newmans Sorcerer's  Estate.  Seriously Brian lives in South East Queensland west of Toowoomba.   He lives in a living nightmare called a Gas Field.  He and his family moved to have the  quiet life and were over run by the corporate madness of the great Gas Rush.  People are sick, crimes are committed against ordinary folks and the chemical nightmare continues on monitoring itself.  All the while the only concern is the bottom line of profit.  No body has any concern for the people in this equation. 

Recently Brian has begun to report on the state of an Aquifer and the proof that gas has breached into the underground water along with chemicals and toxic heavy metals that nature has taken millions of years to separate for our own protection.  This is serious

This is what Brian has reported

23rd November 2014 : 

NEWS FLASH, NEWS FLASH. You wont see this in Des Houghton of the Courier mail articles, or the Chimpchilla News. Nor will you see it on lame-stream media.
There has been a major CSG incident near Chinchilla. An incident involving both Arrow and Origin so I have been told.
It involves the blowing of an aquifer, a water bore blowing out very impressively so i am told. The CSG compliant unit has attended and it is reported to me, they have told the Gas Co's to fix the problem.
Of course there is no make good for this and monetary compensation is the only solution. I have been informed the figure of $1,000,000 is the proposed compensation. But my concern is will $1,000,000 silence this issue, is that all the future of our nation is worth. Also if it is as it has been reported to me, a whole of aquifer damage, what about all the food that was going to be grown from this aquifer.
What about all the other farmers in the area who rely on this aquifer to remain productive.
My personal opinion is it is TIME FARMERS stood up and said, MONEY is not the answer, shutting this industry down is the answer. Instead I suspect the monetary value will be all that is required to silence this issue, destroy the lives of numerous productive farmers as the problem spreads, and all the while slimy no account journalists will continue to spread the co-existence bullshit.
So how much truth is in this allegation, enough for me to hear it from both the CSG industry and farmers alike. Will I pursue this, no, I don't use underground water, our bore is already poisoned, both the industry and the government have covered that up. This claim is for FARMERS who will be impacted to chase up, for any journalist if there are any left in lame-stream to follow up. It is common knowledge.
For those of you who don't live in a gasfield, you will not realize this industry leaks information at an alarming rate, my personal belief is that people working in the industry are just trying to relieve the burden on their soul by leaking information. So has anyone got the balls to follow this up, probably not, but we are talking an aquifer, not a water bore, we are talking an aquifer.

23rd November 2014 later on:

Thanks for sharing this news flash around, the CSG Compliance Unit needs to come out and deny or admit the truth of this story. No need to talk to Arrow or Origin or the APPEA. Just get the facts on the record from the CSG compliance unit, or DEHP or who ever the hell should be regulating this industry, and chase up the effected farmers.
Now it isn't my bore and I wasn't there, but i have absolutely no reason to doubt what I was told from different sources. This is real CSG news, this is the real deal, someone needs to explore this story.
Not APPEA's spin, what about the real farmers who's lives and future depend on this aquifer, could there be a link to LINC, they are stinking the place up again. I mean, investigative journalists used to do this work, WTF happened to them.
What causes water bores to explode, that was how it was described to me. What about a few souls working in the industry come clean and go on the record, even if anonymously, get these facts out there. IT'S TIME.
23 November at 15:06
Chinchilla Water bore blow out and Aquifer destruction. It is reported that this bore blew out, exploded was the term i was told and water spewed all over the landowners paddock. Is this OK Australians. Remember your breakfast probably came from these paddocks, was probably grown from irrigation water from these aquifers. Only idiot choose to poison their water, and bigger idiots allow the polluticians they vote into power to poison it for them. This is a no brainer, there are already so many bores in this area blowing gas, added to that the Condamine River is blowing gas at an alarming rate. Yet your polluticians and useless public servants tell you it is safe. I tell you what is safe, pack these bastards up, put them on a boat and send them back to where they came from. Let honest Australians enjoy clean air, clean water and clean food. Let honest farmers do what they do best, grow food. Do you need to all go to uni to do a course to understand the basic simplicity of this. Poison the air and the water and you poison the food. Deplete the water and nothing grows. WTF, are we just STUPID.

OK, here is an update on the AQUIFER BLOWOUT. This blowout occurred to a bore that had sat unused for 30 years, without any indication it blew out spraying water over a paddock, this was a mix of water and gasses, it continued for around 24 hours before the water slowed but the gas continues to gurgle and blow out. I wonder how many of these water bores the CSIRO tested in their unscientific examination of emissions from the CSG industry. WHAT does this indicate?????? Clearly it shows CHANGE, CHANGE, CHANGE. It shows gas has found its way from the COAL SEAMS to the AQUIFER. NO SCIENCE or SPIN NEEDED to come to that conclusion. So how do we think the CSG industry will try to spin this, did the bore always blow gas, that is the tried and proven way to fool idiots into looking the other way. I cant see any other option for our sold out government and its puppet servants to spin this. But the thing is it DIDN'T always blow gas DID IT. FIRST the bubbling CONDAMINE RIVER, I love the way they call it a seep.

24 November at 12:29 ·

OK, about this Aquifer blow out, I want people to think of how easy it is to shut this up. If i worked for the industry, meaning if I was a total psychopathic moron this is what I would do. I would insist the farmer had no contact with the media. I would wave a juicy carrot under the farmers nose. I would delay the CSG Compliance Unit from commenting or better still get one of my bought and sold polluticians to comment on, even Candrill himself maybe. I would then cover all evidence of the crime against humanity hat is being perpetrated right here, right now.
Now I'm not a total moronic psychopath so I would beg the farmer to in fact contact every media outlet as well as the non-mainstream media outlets. I would have the guts to stand up for what is right, I would know that if i signed the bore away i guaranteed the future of my neighbors to be waterless. I would know that this gas is now escaping unchecked into the soils all around my bore, my land, my neighbors land and I would make a stand. I would know that the future of all the farmers in my region depended on crushing the insane CSG industry and running it out of our land. I would rule my actions by what I KNOW IS RIGHT, even if it not so financially rewarding.
I would also ask for support and in doing so make sure of the motives of those I asked for support.
If I was a greedy self centered moron I would in fact go for the million dollar pay out, because to silence this i would guarantee the industry will pay a million. But in taking that million I would know I sold all my neighbors and friends out, I would know that history would show me to be one of the first to sell my soul. That is not how I would choose to be remembered.
So the eyes of Australia are trained on a farmer who has experienced the destruction of his unused water bore, waiting to see if that farmer and his advising body is prepared to sell out Australia, will be interesting the next few days.
Why can I make this passionate plea, simple really, a neighbor just down the road sold around 5000 acres of his property to QGC for $8,200,000. We own 5200 acres, my cars are falling to bits, the arse is out of my jeans, but my conscience is clean. As the dirt is shoveled on my face, it will hit a smiling face because I did the RIGHT thing. We all know what the right thing is, even our sell out polluticians, our sell out public servants, our sell out neighbors, we all know what the right thing is.
This farmer should be compensated, but for the right reasons, not silenced to hide a sad reality that is sweeping across our nation. Our most precious resource is water, this farmer has the opportunity to save Australian AQUIFERS.
Further....
So think about this little fact. How many billions of tons of water are they extracting from underground. That all holds the gas down, but as David was explaining to me earlier it also hold the surface up. How many billions of tons can you extract before the subsidence begins. It was pointed out to me at a meeting ages ago, that the Murray Darling Basin will in fact change the course of the river because of this subsidence. That how important this battle is, right here, right now, before one aquifer after another falls and eventually the GAB. It is now we stop this industry and this is the evidence we need to stop it. people power, not bought and sold science.
Further...http://water.usgs.gov/edu/gwdepletion.html  Brian quotes UGGS.
Now please read this quote form the above, and tell me how you can remove billions of tons of water and not cause subsidence. ""Land subsidence

The basic cause of land subsidence is a loss of support below ground. In other words, sometimes when water is taken out of the soil, the soil collapses, compacts, and drops. This depends on a number of factors, such as the type of soil and rock below the surface. Land subsidence is most often caused by human activities, mainly from the removal of subsurface water."
This Aquifer collapse, and i hope all the farmers near there stand up now and be counted, because there are a lot of them with bores blowing gas now. This is the gas industry and governments Achilles, this and health impacts. But this is in your face obvious. Is it enough, are there enough true blue Aussies left farming, i guess we find out over the next few days/weeks. Or is this region only full of sellouts who care not for the future generations or the land.
Come on you farmers and I know a lot of you, stand up for Australia, if you don't have someone to film your burning or bubbling bore, message me, we will do it for you. This is the TIME, they stuffed up, here is the chance to ensure water for future generations, don't let your grandchildren down.

Jane Hughes reports to Brian that is now all over Twitter... and that it is being circulated.

Quote from above from Cripps, or Creeps as i think he should be renamed. "I will make sure, as the Government will, that once the investigation to determine the cause is finalized, the appropriate action is taken," he said." Now i translate that to real English, we will kick the dirt, we will wander around aimlessly, we will do little or nothing and then when you forget it ever happened we will say it is all under control and would you please look the other way because there is nothing to see here.  (Tales from the Crypts)

FARMERS MAY CHOOSE TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY ON THIS POST. I spent a lot of the night pondering why a damaged aquifer would get such little publicity. My prediction that a bought and sold pollutician would spin the spin occurred, thanks creeps. My expectation that the farmer would not expose the full extent of damage appears to be true. My prediction that it wouldn't make mainstream appears correct. But none of this was what kept me awake last night, I was awake with this sobering thought, this rumination. It isn't the Gas Companies that allow this industry to flourish, it isn't the Government elect and public servants. No, it isn't, I bet that surprises you. And it wasn't those who signed before the full impacts were obvious. It is those FARMERS who choose the pay off, the payoff is directly proportional to the embarrassment the incident could cause. I think back to when Agforce up here, the farmers organization, went across the state telling farmers they had no choice, now all they talk of is make goods and compensation. No doubt they are involved in this little bore blow out fiasco as well. Anyway, the big bucks will go to the impacted farmer, the sad thing is, that like the bubbling Condamine River, the river that is hardly ever seen in the media, because farmers dont allow access. It is all the same really, the problem is not anyone other than the farmers who see dollar signs as more important than the future of our beautiful nation. So I suggest we stop blaming the companies and the government and start blaming the very people on whom the blame belongs. Not those farmers in the early days, none of us knew back then. But those today, who choose to add their signature of access for the thirty pieces of silver. Not one of my neighbors were forced to sign access agreements, not one, yet 10 out of 13 have. A couple were bullied and coerced, but not one was forced. That is why Coal Seam Gas will roll out over this entire nation, because FARMERS have lost sight of what they once were very good at, caring for the future, their roll is the greatest, their failure to fulfill it has the greatest impact. So when you are at meetings, look around you and see who is going to sell you out, or even if, when the price is right, you will sell out those around you. The FARMER and LAND OWNERS are the true sell outs of our nation. Now i have no intention of modifying this comment. To the farmers I have stood with and talked to who will never sell out, you are all legends, to the rest of you, you are sell outs, you are to blame, not Blighty or Candrill or a gas co, you give this industry permission to destroy our nation with your signature, no one else, no excuses. Probably loose a lot of friends with this post, but the thing is, I don't want sell outs as friends, I fight this fight at great personal cost, and I expect my friends to fight it at the same cost. This is the battle for a future, if that isnt worth the cost, then un-friend me. [Facebook]
I would like to add something here, in the early days before we knew, I would have sold to get out of the industrialization, I just didn't want people all over our land. So no saint here, and I don't profess to be one. But now no one has an excuse, everyone knows, everywhere, and those who cannot see cannot see for greed.

But now as I watch this cancer spreading over the entire nation I realize every signature not given, every pollution exposed, every failure publicized is one chip for the future, other areas and some of ours will save itself by chipping away. PLEASE DON'T SIGN, you have a future to protect.

People are celebrating everywhere because of Brians decision to stand for the Senate!

The Stop Csg Party has scored a top candidate in Mr Brian Monk from Kogan outside of Dalby Queensland.  What a top man he is and he is well equipped now to go forward with all of the expert knowledge this man has gained in his fight with BIG GAS over the past few years.

 

In this image above is Brian, Annette, and Gordon Fraser-Quick with the hat on.  I traveled around with them for a day up at the Tara Gas fields and it was a very shocking but enlightening time.  The reason why Brian is standing for the senate would be because this is where the laws are made and this is where he can have the most impact on this industry. 

He has gone as far as he can now fighting the csg industry in his own steam and I guess its time to join forces and take it to them at the big house of politics in Brisbane. 

So the announcement from Stop Csg went like this:  

We are very proud to present Brian Monk, Lead Federal Parliament Candidate in Queensland for The Senate, The Stop CSG Party. Brian, a farmer on 5000 acres in Kogan, brings a wealth of 'on the ground' experience from the gas fields in Queensland to the Senate ticket.

Brian was quoted as saying,

"Well you will probably be surprised, but I'm sick of having no voice in Government, so here we go.
Coal Seam Gas Mining has been a devastating experience for us, so now we see another chapter in this fight.
Time to tackle this from within. I am proud to be part of the Stop CSG Party and I guess the name explains this fully.  Lets join together and Stop CSG"

TODAY IS ALSO SHELBY'S FIRST BIRTHDAY, Not to forget this special day on the day.  Happy Birthday to you Shelby. xxx

Lock all the Gates ... even Hell's Seven Gates!

Much is written about the Seven Gates of Hell.   One is supposedly located on one of each of the continents.
The seven traditional continents are: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia.

That Means That there is one Gate of Hell for each Continent respectively.  Australia's Hells Gate is located at Rookwood Cemetary in Greater Sydney.  Some needs to put a yellow triangle on this gate.

Csg ?  You tube Brian Monk....  It was very effective indeed.

I want to share a few thoughts on Lock the Gate today. It is often criticized, I was there in its early days, at Broke a while later, at the forming meeting, I know a lot of its story, I know most of its early players.

It has been awesome, taken CSG from unknown to a household name, that is amazing. It has saved the Nth Rivers and no doubt most if not all of NSW and Vic and I CERTAINLY haven't given up on Qld, WA, and SA..

So, what is wrong with LTG? There are a few things in my opinion, but I would rather discuss what is right. It is the way all of the groups and regions have taken the LTG message and applied it to local custom, nothing points that out better than the Nth Rivers victory, the Nth Central NSW group with 100% lock out, Camden, Scenic Rim, Felton, soon to be Gippsland, what about the Otways.

These groups all do their own thing their own way. But at the core of it is not LTG management but in fact LTG philosophy, we are Australians, we want a future, we want the planet to have a future, not the most stupid concept you will hear today is it?

So tell me, what is wrong with LTG that is more negative to neutralize the groups who are winning, one by one, a new region of winners is added to the growing list. I take that as pretty awesome, I'm proud to walk with this group, I'm proud to see what is happening as the country wakes up to the filth of this industry.

They are waking because of each and every member and supporter who is spreading the word.

Remember when the media had us blacked out, we would do an action and no one from the media turned up, those days are now few and far between. But it is important to see how far we have come and how far we have to go.

Every Aussie who Locks his/her Gate adds to the power, the power that is locking the gate, saving the future.   by
