Over 1000 people packed the streets of Port Kembla on Saturday as unions, Labor Party members, anti-war activists and the local community marched to oppose plans for a nuclear submarine base—and the $368 billion nuclear submarines as well.
The South Coast Labour Council moved this year’s May Day rally from nearby Wollongong in protest at news that Port Kembla was the preferred location for a $10 billion east coast base for the AUKUS nuclear submarines.
Flags and contingents from a raft of unions including the Teachers Federation, the MUA, CFMEU, ETU, NTEU, the Australian Services Union, as well as firefighters and nurses all joined the march.

Vimeo is a video sharing platform that was launched in 2004 by a group of filmmakers. Since then, the platform has grown exponentially with most users being creators and artists in film, animation, music and other works of art who use Vimeo as a way to share and promote their work. Because Vimeo is regarded as more of a professional network of artists, the community is much more appreciative of the content that gets shared there, resulting in kinder and more useful discussions compared to YouTube.
