Hobsons Bay 4 Palestine

It has now come to light that Hobsons Bay Mayor and Councillor secretly attended the so-called “Mayor’s Antisemitism Summit” an event condemned by the Jewish Council of Australia as a far-right propaganda platform promoting a pro-Israel agenda under the guise of combating antisemitism.

Despite clear community warnings, both councillors not only attended but also accepted financial gifts from an international Zionist organisations backing the event.

These are the same councillors who refused to support Pro-Palestine motions while Israel continues its brutal assault on Gaza, and who have since ignored all questions raised at council meetings and failed to respond to multiple emails seeking accountability.

The community deserves to know the truth. So much for the RRR Roads, Rates and Rubbish excuse.

LOCAL CONSTITUENTS STAGE PEACEFUL SIT-IN AT THE OFFICE OF TIM WATTS MP TO DEMAND AUSTRALIA SANCTION ISRAEL NOW

Currently reading out names of children who have been massacred by the genocidal state of Israel over the last 22 months.

Inaction is complicity.

SANCTION ISRAEL NOW!

20/08/2025

On Wednesday, 20 August 2025, residents of Hobsons Bay gathered peacefully inside the office of Tim Watts MP to demand that Australian government sanction the state of Israel immediately as a means to pressure it to end the ongoing genocide, occupation and crimes against humanity being committed against the Palestinian people.

Recognition of Palestine is meaningless while Palestinians are being massacred by the state of Israel and our government continues to arm, trade with, and shield the genocidal state.

We call for immediate sanctions, an end to weapons exports, and the expulsion of the Israeli ambassador.

Our message is clear: Australia must choose justice over complicity.
