We wont always like the decisions of our judiciary but they should never be subject to the whim of politicians or populist leanings.

Shaggy Gog,
I for one do not question the Judiciary, I question the mentality of those entrusted with the priviledge of exercising judicial power. This is one such event.

Indi,
It is our system and like anything set up by us humans it is less than perfect.
To hand it all over to Premiers and Prime Ministers with Dictatorial Delusions is not really an option to me.
The population would really suffer if we ever allowed this to happen as it has elsewhere.

I agree Shaggy Dog.
Of course the judiciary are going to get it wrong sometimes, just like everyone else does.

Lumping them all in the same basket is juvenile, but Individual wouldn't like them because they all went to university...

Suseonline,
why are brainless remarks your only defence ? The judiciary got it wrong, we agree on that. So, what are they doing about it ? If we get something wrong accidentally does the judiciary say "ah well, people do get it wrong occasionally". No, of course not. we get hammered. Also Suseonline if you were a little more switched on you might have found that I didn't throw them all in the same basket, only these sick perverts who see that as a weapon against undermining the present Qld Government.
How can people have any confidence in our legal system with judgements like that ? The Police must be just so frustrated.
