    ‘Violent’; Greens MLC Abigail Boyd describes her experience with police

    https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/radionational-breakfast/abigail-boyd-describes-her-experience-with-police/106325118

    “I was at the rally, it was peaceful and loving, and then the police decided we couldn’t leave but then they decided we couldn’t stay either and they just started assaulting people. I got pushed so hard my feet left the ground after I told them I was a member of parliament and then I got shoved so hard in my chin…”

      Cunts an embarrassment to the nation. So bad at governing even his own party couldn’t abide.

      Fuck off Abbott. IDK why he’s felt the need to increase his profile since the coalition shat itself but I suspect that no sitting member of parliament appreciates his input.

      As ever, his rhetoric is as divisive and out of touch as ever.

    That’s some fucken bullshit right there.

    That footage of bike guy shows their actions were indefensible. What the fuck was going on there?

    Why not demonstrate our commitment to accountability by suspending the coppers throwing punches until their actions can be investigated.

      It’s because they don’t give a shit about accountability or democracy.

    If the protesters are charged with antisemitic hate speech and go to trial, would the jury get to say “yeah, nah” and dismiss all charges, or does NSW penal-colony law work differently?
