Vote [1] Social Justice for an activist RUSU!

Social Justice for RUSU is a group of left-wing students who want change in our student union.

Students are angry. The climate is being destroyed. University fees are going up. Classes are overcrowded. Our tutors are stretched and underpaid.

Sexism, racism & homophobia are rife in society. Social Justice wants a student union that will stand up for students.

RUSU has a budget of $4 million. It has the capacity to run campaigns for climate justice, LGBTQI+ rights, and better education.

We need free education now. RMIT’s executives earn over $500,000. Our vice chancellor earns over a million. Their salaries should be cut and put into staff and student services. Our education should not be sacrificed for profits.

Our candidates are all activists who have organised a number of campaigns, such as:
• to free the Park Hotel refugees
• for a free Palestine
• against the massive increases to our university fees
• for LGBTQI+ rights, against the religious discrimination bill
• the recent 15,000-strong protests in defence of abortion rights
• campus protests against RMIT’s ties to weapons manufacturing
companies who profit from genocide
• climate justice campaigns through RMIT Students for Climate Justice

Vote for Social Justice if you want RUSU to fight for students.

Scott Morrison’s emissions reduction plan is a disgrace. The net zero plan he announced last week doesn’t restrict the activities of any fossil fuel companies, and it relies on technology that doesn’t yet exist to help achieve emissions targets.

More than that, the ‘net-zero’ part of the plan is based on carbon capture from forest re-growth but his modelling relies on gross manipulation of the estimates of how much carbon dioxide trees can absorb.

ScoMo’s plan is based around one thing - keeping the profits of the fossil fuel companies rolling in.

We need to send a message that politicians kicking the can down the road on the climate crisis is not good enough. Join RMIT Students for Climate Justice at the COP26 Global Day of Action - Melbourne tomorrow, 1pm @ the State Library to demand real action on the climate now.
