@DougCameron51 @JohnRowsthorne Gareth Evans' submission was extraordinarily detailed, which, of course, doesn't surprise me one little bit.

Australia will never see subs under the #AUKUS deal, yet it captures our sovereignty by the US for the next 40 years & beyond.

China is laughing uproariously.

25 years for saying no to genocide.

Activist in the UK repeatedly warned people about Starmer.

Like people in Australia have been repeatedly warning us about Chris Minns, @AlboMP and Jillian Segal.

The govt’s refusal to clean up unethical practices rife across the consultancy sector & its refusal to ban dodgy firms is why the Greens introduced a bill to parliament. We must close the legal loopholes that allow govt contractors who behave unethically to get away with it.

Imagine if Iran bombed civilian infrastructure in Washington and killed American civilians, the whole world would call it terrorism

The US bombed civilian infrastructure in Tehran and killed Iranian civilians. Why do you call it a self-defense.

The US just committed a war crime

Judge Johnson’s rogue manoeuvrings in the rigged trials of the Palestine Action activists have so incensed the legal profession that thousands signed a petition demanding that he take the chance last Monday to recuse himself from the sentencing hearing.

He, of course, refused to do so.

They call his behaviour during the trial “biased” and “discriminatory conduct” and have referred him to the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office.

Here is David Whyte, professor of law at Queen Mary’s University of London, who handed the petition to the JCIO, explaining another reason why so many legal professionals are outraged by Judge Johnson’s actions:

He has shown exceptional “cruelty and vindictiveness” in holding the activists in remand for more than three times the normal maximums, even when the prosecution was not asking for them to be remanded, and for refusing them bail between their convictions and sentencing.

The Court of Appeal is due to issue a ruling on the government’s appeal against an earlier High Court decision declaring Palestine Action’s proscription unlawful this coming Monday, days after Judge Johnson’s sentencing of the Filton activists.

If this is all starting to look like theatre, that it because it is. In dictatorships, these are called show trials. Everyone understands that the outcome is predetermined. Everyone understands that justice is non-existent. The verdict is entirely political. It is a faux-legal rationalisation of what the security state wants.

Judge Johnson is the perfect judge to play that part.

The courts will do exactly what is expected of them unless they are worried that public revulsion will discredit their decision. Now is the time to raise our voices.

We've stopped talking about Taylor's "Cayman Is. Entity" which was paid $80,000,000 for water.

The deal was set up & approved by the $32,000 a day drought envoy Barnaby Joyce.

The water ended up being imaginary, the money very real, has never been recovered.

He wants to be PM!

@FreeDanDuggan What an absurd situation is Dan Duggan's incarceration. Albanese crawls to his yankee masters & assigns Australia's sovereignty to maintain favour with the criminal USA terrorists
Australian citizens should be outraged by Albanese's treachery.
Free Dan Duggan immediately.

@knarfnamduh @EddyJokovich He didn't mention Palantir or data/intelligence sharing which is another deeply troubling domain.
An Israel that has full access to our sensitive information isn't a partner, it's more a hostile takeover.
And the corrupt goons in Canberra are falling over themselves to assist.

Israeli strikes that killed Reuters video journalist Issam Abdallah and injured six other journalists cannot be dismissed as a “mistake.” Why did Israeli forces attack a clearly identifiable group of journalists in southern Lebanon. https://t.co/3vOKPLRKBv

I am relieved that Iran has finally fired back at Israel.

The impunity with which Israel constantly violates the ceasefires in Lebanon and Gaza has to end.

Iran is standing up for all of humanity against the zionist supremacists.
