MISSING
THE LONELY WARRIOR
WANTED
FOR HUNTING GENERALS
WHISTLEBLOWERS SHOULD GET REWARDS NOT JAIL
WHERE'S HURLEY?
14TH MAY 2024 SUPREME COURT ACT
The generals get to choose which information is available to the court, but the generals also have the most to gain from McBride being convicted. It would surely be unconstitutional for the court to convict McBride as he cannot defend himself, surely allowing the High Court to overturn it? I don't actually know that much but this whole thing is BS, the media are actively avoiding it and the ABC and Crikey have decided to label him a culture war villain.
100%, it's total BS! Kafka coulnot have come up with this farce.
Remember how in November the court ruled on the definition of 'duty'? Michael West reports that if McBride gets a prison sentence on Tuesday, there will likely be an appeal:
