Stolen wages remain stolen

The Stolen Wages campaigns are struggling in the finding of justice for families of those long gone and for those with little time left on this earth.

From WA, Yamatji Phil Moncrief said, "(These are) simple cut and dried cases. A social justice run up the mountain of corruption is what it is - it does not get much easier than to get the justice done here." However, the Stolen wages remain stolen for far too many people, their families and/or their descendants.

Disingenuous Gillard, Swan and Shorten can communicate denigration and mud but not policies!

It is disingenous for Julia Gillard, Wayne Swan, Stephen Conroy, Bill Shorten and others to be smashing the reputation of Kevin Rudd and to dishevel the legacy of his time in the Office of the Prime Minister.

Hundreds take to streets for second Wikileaks protest in 24hrs in Brisbane

Submitted by kimk on Fri, 10/12/2010 - 4:43pm

Queenslander Julian Assange, in custody in the U.K., can take comfort from the many hundreds of people coming to his defence around the world, but especially in Brisbane, the capital of his home state. Today about 400 people from all walks of life took to the streets of Brisbane, stopping traffic in the CBD.

Protestors rallied outside the Department of Foreign Affairs in stifling heat, before marching through the city centre.
