"And for years, Witness J’s lawyers have been waiting to receive copies of relevant documents: they’re still waiting."

Indeed they are.

@MarysiaGreen @JulianBurnside For everything I've been disgracefully put through, the indefinite detention of refugees in this country is undoubtedly a greater and more alarming matter.

@JohnBlaxland1 @abcnews @AndrewBGreene @ANUasiapacific @ANUBellSchool Markus Wolfe's use of 'Romeos' was masterful (see Man Without a Face). An under appreciated vector in today's operational environment.

It's very sad that most Australians do not know of Witness J, a former ASIS officer, who was secretly charged, secretly tried and secretly gaoled in the ACT.
How can this happen in this country?

Taken by yours truly - it's more fun on the other side (they have golf).

Katharine (Kate) Jane Thornton.

Say her name.

She deserves to be heard in death above any other living person's wishes.

We have a right to know the truth. And she has a right to be a person and not a pseudonym.

@gailblack1 @cporterwa Harrowing, though a necessary one (I believe).

We must confront this.

1920:

‘The King feels so strongly that, no matter the crime committed by anyone on whom the VC has been conferred, the decoration should not be forfeited. Even were a VC to be sentenced to be hanged for murder, he should be allowed to wear his VC on the scaffold’.

Still apt.

@MurdochCadell Incidentally, terrible tradecraft.

The counter-nexus effort was the single biggest contributor to losing this war, and there was no finer example of this arrogance than sending a fifth generation fighter to bomb a heroin factory.

Goodness, I'm actually a little bit funny IRL (can I claim that?) outside of this account; secret agency prankster, annoying (insert family member) at dinner, etc...

Doom and gloom, left of boom (spy and cat reference for you).

Admittedly I don't smile as much as I use to.

A shout out to Stuart McCarthy who is leading this humanitarian fight to bring our former Afghan interpreters and their families to safety.

They are some of the longest serving (and cheekiest!) humans to have stood with us in this tired war.

My humble home is open to them ❤️

Release the report IGIS.

This senior intelligence officer - an awardee of the DGs annual award (🇯🇵) - wants to one day meet a former agent of his who was jailed under his operational watch. He feels he should be there...

The irony is real, and this secret agency is a stinking and hypocritical mess.

J

[Witness J @WitnessJ8]

Release the report IGIS.

J

[Witness J @WitnessJ8]

"Hi ****, I think I'm having a mental break down, can you help me?"

This is a verbatim message I sent to a senior officer who worked in the civilian agency I cannot legally name.

I asked two more times to two other senior officers, and no help came.

455 days in prison...

J

[Witness J @WitnessJ8]

Release the report IGIS.

Further, the toxic status quo remains in a certain office:

Senior 'diplomats' lie to HQ to protect their own tarnished reputations, and in doing so destroy the lives of their newest officers.

"Take me out of that memo". Thanks G*** *****.
