David McBride exposed alleged war crimes.
He was imprisoned for telling the truth.
This is a red flag for democracy.

This announcement leaves so many unanswered questions:
- Why is Brereton still a Major-General in the ADF?
- What happens to all the defence referrals he has been working on, and making decisions on, until now?
- Why is he paid over $800k a year not to work on defence referrals?

The full media release can be read on the NACC's website: nacc.gov.au/news-and-med...

#NACC Commissioner Brereton "steps aside from all defence-related corruption referrals".

Does this mean Australia can begin to fix Defence now?

It's now November and Australia's whistleblower laws are still broken. They fail to protect public servants like #DavidMcBride, even and especially when the government can hide their crimes behind a shroud of 'National Security' secrecy.

David McBride told the truth. Now he’s in jail.

Whistleblowers protect democracy and the public’s right to know. Punishing them silences truth.

Attorney-General Michelle Rowland can act now.

"The reason I became a whistleblower was: what I saw in the Australian military was so bad, and they weren't going to fix themselves and something had to be done about it." - David McBride @davidmcbride.bsky.social

Let's get #PardonDavidMcBride trending! #auspol

A few months ago, incarcerated Aussie Government whistleblower #DavidMcBride requested special leave to appeal to the High Court of Australia.

The High Court today refused this request: hcourt.gov.au/sites/defaul...

The Attorney General must pardon David, for Justice!

David McBride spoke from prison with @sstephanietrann.bsky.social. The High Court has a big appeal to consider ... the Nuremberg Defence, is there a higher duty than obeying orders #Auspol
youtu.be/4Kw6hc2SIGw?...

We remember when you promised to protect #whistleblowers @albomp.bsky.social. Why is David McBride languishing in prison?
#auspol

Wondering how David McBride is going in prison.. Locked up for doing the job he was paid to do‼️ @albomp.bsky.social @auspol.info #auspol

David McBride exposed war crimes. Now he is in jail while those responsible walk free.

Whistleblowers protect democracy. Australia must protect truth-tellers, not punish them.

We've had three huge political prisoners released in the span of a year: Julian Assange, Leonard Peltier, and Georges Abdallah.

Let's get David McBride and Imran Khan free as well

David McBride @murdochcadell Apr 13, 2023 Replying to @murdochcadell:

If Hurley really didn’t know anything, and is entirely blameless, why does he avoid my subpoenas on the ground ‘he can’t because he is the GG?’

If ordinary soldiers have to front up and be questioned why shouldn’t he?

Why […]

David McBride @murdochcadell Apr 13, 2023 Replying to @murdochcadell:

"In ‘No Front Line’ Chris Masters states he saw drone footage of a soldier being ‘blown over a wall’ in 2012.

That proves all Ops were filmed.

Why didn’t they question things that Brereton has since called ‘likely murders’? […]

Must-read on #DavidMcBride's appeal to the highest Aus'n court.

'“Our key argument in the High Court is that there have to be some circumstances where disobeying orders is in the public interest and is the moral and legal thing to do,” said his lawyer, Eddie Lloyd.' […]

👆🏼Please donate if you can. Even small amounts go a long way.

The government has already spent millions prosecuting David.
