What a headline. Where's the active agent in this? Or does going to Sydney protests just naturally carry the risk of going blind? Wtaf

We must fix the #PIDact. Government whistleblowers like David McBride, Richard Boyle are not protected by the current legislation and are gaoled instead.

"As an ADF lawyer, McBride was a respected expert on the rules of engagement, and he also taught the PID Act to soldiers."

Paul Gregoire explains the David McBride case in the below article, extensively quoting McBride's lawyer Eddie Lloyd https://www.sydneycriminallawyers.com.au/blog/mcbrides-appeal-is-in-jeopardy-as-the-respected-lawyer-needs-finances-to-fund-it/

100 days too long! Free McBride. (sh.itjust.works)
 

cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/24046152

Today, the 22nd of August 2024, marks 100 days since army lawyer David McBride was imprisoned in Canberra for exposing war crimes committed by Australian forces in Afghanistan.

David stood up for truth and integrity, yet now he endures death threats and solitary confinement, while those responsible remain free.

This is not how we should treat our whistleblowers in Australia! ⚖️
