We went to Marles’ office in the south part of the Great South Land and asked the $30bn question: who do you represent and when do or DID you make the actual switch from public servant to weapons advocate?  [Read more] Smashing the Social License of an Industry Geared to Terrorise.

@MarisePayne “I call upon you to restore Australian’s reputation by fighting this culture of abuse.”

Dear  Minister @MarisePayne Australia is a country that calls itself an open and accountable democracy. We aim to show other countries how to act in a humane way to their citizens. So I was appalled to hear from a friend about events in September 2014.  Protesters were hooded, zip-tied and  had their clothing cut from… [Read more] @MarisePayne “I call upon you to restore Australian’s reputation by fighting this culture of abuse.”
