Fifty people gathered outside John Howard's Sydney office on August 23, protesting against the Global Nuclear Energy Partnership agreement, which is on the agenda of the September 8-10 APEC meeting. Speakers included anti-nuclear campaigner Helen Caldicott, Aboriginal leader Jenny Munroe and Greens Senator Kerry Nettle. Placards read: "APEC: Nuking Australia", "No to APEC: Nuclear no solution to climate change", "Don't Tampa with land rights" and "No dumps, uranium mines, on Aboriginal land". Attendees pledged to demonstrate at the anti-APEC demonstration on September 8 despite massive police intimidation. The picket was organised by the Sydney Nuclear-Free Coalition.
