Everyone in the Territory doing well except for Aboriginal peoples

Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Mon, 26/08/2013 - 9:01am

By Gerry Georgatos - August 24th, 2013 - During Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s recent whirlwind election stop in the Top End he highlighted the average age of death of the Northern Territory’s Aboriginal peoples – 52 years. This is the nation’s worst.

No truly free press with our inadequate shield laws, whistleblower protections

PHOTO Geoff Bagnall, National Indigenous Times: Journalist Gerry Georgatos at the January 26, 2012 Lobby Restaurant incident - days later he broke the story that the Prime Minister's Office was extensively involved in generating the incident despite their claims that it is was the work of a rogue parliamentary staffer.

WikiLeaks Party statement on intervention in Syria

Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Mon, 26/08/2013 - 8:46am

August 25, 2013 As the US prepares for military action in Syria, the reactions of Kevin Rudd and Tony Abbott are entirely in keeping with previous ALP and Coalition failures to put Australian military forces before their own party alliances with Washington.

Australia needs to send emergency medical aid to Syria immediately and assist an independent assessment of the situation. It must not rush towards sacrificing its young soldiers on behalf of an ambitious foreign power before the jury is in.

Whistleblowers needed when cultures of wrong-doing rule

Gerry Georgatos - I stand alongside those who let nothing get in the way of what is right, what is in the common good. I stand alongside those who will let no injustice go unheard, untold. I stand alongside Private Chelsea Manning who has been sentenced up to 35 years in prison for serving humanity's interests. Manning's decision to report to humanity was out of concern for humanity.

Manning should be relieved of the cruel and unfair burden of her prison sentence with a presidential pardon, and she should be acknowledged as both a patriot and as a true citizen of the world.

STARTTS will hold its fifth annual Refugee Ball on October 9, 2013, in order to raise vital funds for the services, treatment and rehabilitation of refugee torture and trauma survivors.

The Refugee Ball is the largest fundraising event for the association, bringing together distinguished individuals, corporations and professionals interested in improving the lives of refugees within the community. This year, all the proceeds will go to the School Liaison Program, which will help traumatised local refugee children receive the proper care and support they need within schools in Australia.
