this is outrageous and no one in Australia gives a shit
Yes it is outrageous.
There a many in Australia who care about this a lot as is clear from the number of donors who raised funds for his legal defence. We need more people to talk about this. Buy his book The Nature of Honour, out this week and display it wherever you are. David will keep fighting from jail but we need to all fight for him. Talk to your MP. Demand the Attorney General intervene and drop this case.
I give many shits unfortunatly my governemt is heading down a dangerouse path.
