Pro Palestine activists protest at the Deputy Premier, #BenCarrol's, office in the #Victorian government's parliamentary and treasury office building in Treasury Place.
While MP #NatalieHutchins was hosting a weapons expo in Collins St., activists took the protest to Deputy Premier, Ben Carroll's, office building to demand that the Victorian government cancel its Memorandum of Understanding with the Israeli Ministry of Defence.
They also demanded that the VIC government cancel all contracts with Israeli weapons company and war profiteers, #ElbitSystems. Ben Carroll recently returned from a junket trip to Israel where he further cemented the Victorian government's complicity in Israel's genocidal war against the people of the occupied territories of #Palestine.
The Victorian #government is courting weapons company investment when it should be investing in Victorian manufacturing for climate solutions and public transport, not in tooling up for the war machine of death and destruction.
