Governments in this country know they are guilty of human rights abuse.
That’s why they’re hiding what is happening in prisons.

BREAKING: Today Independent MPs @WilkieMP @helenhainesindi @DavidPocock are introducing landmark whistleblower protection laws.
Whistleblowers make Australia a better place. The Albanese Government should back these laws to ensure whistleblowers are protected, not prosecuted.

Eighteen people to a cell, people sleeping on concrete floors next to toilets, lights left on 24/7, lack of safe drinking water, people allowed showers only every four days.
What kind of country are we becoming?

We call on the Tasmanian government @jeremyrockliff to work with orgs on the ground to ensure steadfast legislation to protect our kids and investment to support children and their families in holistic, culturally safe, prevention, early intervention and diversionary programs.
Breaking news: Tasmania will be the FIRST to ensure NO child under 14 years old will grow up in a jail cell.
There is work to do, but make no mistake this is a win!
14, no exceptions, no carve outs.
Join us now to see that all kids have a childhood

The precedent has be set: all governments can and must #RaiseTheAge for all kids under 14.
We call on all state and territory governments to follow Tasmania's example.
