It’s a watershed day. In a world rife with aggressive disinformation campaigns trying to encourage distrust in democratic institutions, it’s powerfully reassuring to see the Australian justice system come down against the powerful and vindicate the innocent. #auspol

We are sleepwalking into a catastrophic global conflict.

Our political class shows no interest in de-escalation, diplomacy or restraint — and it is always other people's children who pay the price.

In a world of endless war, we need voices for lasting peace.

Probably a good time to reflect on how devotedly and brutally mastheads and prominent commentators seek to undermine, discredit and destroy women who allege sexual assault, or report on sexual assault. There's been a lot of bullying masquerading as journalism; it infects.

On what planet is a shock jock informed of the death of an individual before family members are informed ?
Why is Ray Hadley on the police' need to be informed ' line ?
Something's rotten in the state of Denmark !

Can’t wait for his next Spotlight interview. Let’s light some more fires !

imagine billing taxpayers $6000 so you can spend an hour at a donor’s birthday party.

imagine thinking it was completely acceptable.

Peter Dutton showing contempt for the public.

Who in this pack of deplorables lied &threw Ms Higgins to the wolves Which ones were part of the Bruce, the rapist Lehrman protection club Which harridan thought moving BH 3000 km to Perth was right? Who cleaned the sofa? Who is chasing BH to France for money? #auspol #lnplie

This is exploitation of a vulnerable man at a distressing time & it's disgusting

Exploitative, ghoulish, disgusting ABC News

It's distressing to a nation that is already reeling from this, to the people involved and especially the Cauchi family

Absolutely vile Media Watch

Please MSM leave the parents alone.
Leave. Them. Alone.
You are disgusting in your feeding frenzy.
They are old and so obviously struggling.
The atrocity was committed by their son, not by them,
Leave. Them. Alone

Any word from leading wingnutter Janet Albgretchsen on Brucey’s loss and the judges summary of him ? Talk about egg on face and what about channel 7 ?

Enough! It looks like #FauziahIbrahim has been promoted. That’s it for me with the #ABCnews To have her fronting yesterday‘s emotional #BondiJunction horrific situation & today #JusticeLee ’s handing down #Lehrmann verdict is literally a slap in the face to the left. #KimWilliams

Unbelievable assessment currently on Sky News Australia. “There were no winners…”
What don’t they understand about Lee’s finding Higgins was raped!

The judge said that having escaped the lion’s den Mr Lehrmann made the mistake of going back for his hat. In other words he should have embraced the fact his trial was aborted because of the misconduct of a juror and put it all behind him. Now he’s ruined.

Sometimes there are just not words ! Even though information was out there probably before this went to publication Samantha Maiden still feels the need to do the LNP's fearmongering bidding by conflating the actual events. Still Murdoch pays the big bucks for click bait !

Omnishambles first used in BBC political satire The Thick of It in 2009. It refers to a situation seen as shambolic from all possible perspectives. In 2012 'omnishambles' was Oxford English Dictionary Word of the Year and now Justice Lee has popularised it via #Lehrmann trial.

With the exception of referring to the Logies as a prestigious award, Justice Lee is providing a masterclass in differentiating fact from fiction.

#auspol #Lehrmann

Hell bent.

We all know that one.

A Liberal staffer raped by another Liberal staffer in a Liberal Senators office .

Huge thank you to Justice Lee, and his court, for:

a) allowing the public to watch this trial in full;

b) having a legal brain the size of planet, weighing all the complexities & making findings that are fair, nuanced & understandable.

And for your wit. 🙏 #lehrmann

Lehrmann bought a deformation case against Network 10 for broadcasting rape allegations against him. Ten relied on a 'truth' defence, which required the court the determine whether Lehrmann did in fact 'rape' Ms Higgins. Justice Lee found that he did. #Lehrmann #auspol
