I read The Australian's initial report on this story and it left out some very interesting facts Bettina included. Such as the complainant first going to a compensation lawyer before the police; the sexual assault declaration when purchase the morning after pill; and the unprofessional and smart-arse comments from the judge. Separately, the law change naming the accused early in proceedings is outrageous and a form of punishment in itself. Thank you, Bettina!

And another thing .. I'm angry this morning...

On this article about Chanel Contos and her findings : https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/parenting/school-life/chanel-contos-sounds-alarm-on-national-crisis-in-major-address/news-story/162b9cb3df604c56a6ed80e28437b081

I cannot leave a comment.

But on this article I can: https://www.news.com.au/world/middle-east/relief-for-australians-stuck-in-gaza-as-20-allowed-to-cross-into-egypt/news-story/e56986c62839598bdf50e4905d559880

in my last post, I mentioned giving feedback news.com.au and I also asked them why they limit comments on some articles and not others...

Why is this?

They allow people to comment on the Gaza-Israel conflict but not on something local that is in Australia..

This is why I'm pushing.. you need to give feedback..please find the time or courage...

This article https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/parenting/school-life/chanel-contos-sounds-alarm-on-national-crisis-in-major-address/news-story/162b9cb3df604c56a6ed80e28437b081

Chanel Contos sounds alarm on ‘national health crisis’ in National Press Club address

just in case you missed it.

This is mentioned by other commentators on here..

I've complained to news.com.au for this article being one sided and that, or did I miss them, there are no links to follow up on here research by Ms Contos.. and that this is fake news journalism..

A bit over down but PLEASE.. you must complain to these media outlets.. even just tell them your feelings.. otherwise.. they keep doing this stuff.

Like some politicians , they bleet: "unless you tell us something is wrong we do nothing".. But they hide behind this 'not knowing'... while it is happening right in front of their noses:::::please complain/report to them that you are not happy about this coverage...

Very interesting read. Thanks Phillip. The predictions all came to bear.

What I find distressing is that as I liquidate assets in preparation for a major geographical shift, (probably next year), I'm seeing the country I worked to help build being torn apart by an internal parasitic victimhood mentality.

I'm watching self destruction and autocannibalism consume what was potentially the best country on earth to live and raise a family.

With our land mass, export capability, resources and other advantages, this movement has been able to suckle the life blood without being noticed (therefore pushed back against) for far too long, allowing much deeper entrenchment.

In countries without our advantages, the movement gets knocked on it's arse because they can't secretly control the level of funding or rise to positional power in order to achieve the infiltration level. This is making it a much more brainwashed takeover without brute force and violence as per most communist countries. That's going to make this a much harder enemy to flush.

It really seems the less affluent countries have to work within the realms of truth and fact to fiscally survive, that may be the reason most Non-Western countries either don't support or reject this ideology.

Chanel Contos during her National Press Club presentation referred to this allegation, while she did not name names, her reference to a man involved in a recent Canberra incident and is now charged with a similar offence in Queensland. (not verbatim) She pointedly raised this issue.

More journalists need to speak up!

It's all good and well that you write these articles Bettina, but when it's just you, you can be written off as a radical. We need more journalists - male and female, young and old - engaging in this conversation from a realist's point of view. The way the law operates in this country is textbook prejudice against men and it will only get worse unless we collectively stand up to the injustices. Unfortunately, there is a culture that cancels anyone who speaks this truth. We won't get anywhere as long as it's just you speaking up Bettina, but with the help of more voices there is hope.

The question that needs to be asked by the defence and the bench is “If there wasn’t a remote prospect in 2021 of Bruce getting a significant compensation payment if exonerated of false allegations, would this grifter have even approached a “compensation lawyer”?

The QPS are the minions of the Feminists Industrial Complex in Qld, and are notorious for over redacting, withholding and tampering with evidence to support the misandristic war of their mistresses on Boys, Men and Fathers.

Please, use gender appropriate terminology and don’t acquiesce to the woke degendered attack on our language. The correct term for a female is “𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙚” which BH is most definitely not

It is so maddening that this woman is able to spin her lies to the media and they all just lap it up. Look at this latest nonsense from the ABC. Yet none of the big media players dare publish even a tame version of my blog because they somehow think it will be seen as contempt of court. Think about how Higgins played the media, endlessly promoting her version of events... and now the same thing is happening here. Please help me get it out there, circulating my blog in every possible way. I need your help.

You may be onto something! Nothing about writing a written request and getting it signed off I see. Rather takes the romance out of the whole thing I reckon.

Our entire judicial and political systems need to be overhauled. How much longer can this blatant bigotry and two tiered legal system continue? Countless men have taken their lives or had them destroyed by this kind of disgusting injustice. Are these journalists and politicians so callous and filled with rage about men that they are happy to hound blokes to their death?

When are people who are in our parliament and fully aware of this endless circus of reputational destruction going to DO SOMETHING?

Depressing.

The one positive - that you are writing about this Bettina.

Thank you!

Cheers

Sadly, this is the new norm. Young (and not so young!!) men beware. The age of "sexual liberation" has well and truly passed. You know, when women were assumed to have agency in matters sexual because they were strong and independent and not mere ingenues forced by societal norms into gratifying men's base instincts. Those days are gone. Men, have casual (and apparently consensual) sex at your peril.

It is interesting that Brittany Higgins mental health was of concern to the Courts etc, but not Bruce Lehrmann's. And we are told that their should be no sexism, ageism etc. Yeah, right. As soon as I heard about these allegations I thought "here we go again" and I wonder what the purpose is other than to "get him" at all costs. For goodness sake.....leave the poor guy alone. He is innocent. Surely these arrogant feminist activists and the media can pick on someone else. Oh, that's right. They like to kick a person when they are down, it is much easier for them. What a greedy, selfish society we have become, especially the female gender (not all thankfully). I hope both Brittany and this latest money grabber are eventually jailed for their lies and made to pay restitution.
