Despite the fact that the High Court decision has shown the world what an embarrassing and incompetent bunch of Leftist monkeys the Victorian government, it’s police, and its judicial system are, Police Minister, Lisa Neville, has “full confidence” in the Victorian circus. Well, I suppose she wouldn’t be a minister in Dastardly Dan’s pro-China, belt and road government if she thought differently. Like Dan, she probably believes people claiming to have been abused umpteen years ago without question. “I believe you, poor baby, I believe you. I’ll send the boys in blue out to fit someone up”.

Dear mhaze,

Please show me where "And the reprehensible SR who wants the man further punished for the crime of being in a hated group."?

Look Labour MP Craig Thompson was acquitted of 95% of the charges brought against him and was ultimately fined for misuse of just $3,500 of union funds. If legal justice was served in Pell's case, and ultimately it probably was, then it was served in Thompson's case too.

That doesn't mean natural justice had its day by any means in either case.

Not lacking in public support
A prince of the church had his day in court
Many wished the high prince well
Others wanted him to rot in hell

The accusations many decades go
Told by all those in the know
Although cleared, the doubt remains
For the ageing prince life's not the same

He's now worldwide a familiar face
Living his last years out of place
A lesson lies when you're stained with taint
You'll never end your life a saint.

(Inspired by the poetry of Francis Duggan).

Mark Powell, PROTESTANT cleric, gives some mention of the Leftist hack scribblers who persecuted George Pell, as well as the lack of “integrity or competence in Victoria Police and that state’s legal system” but mainly, he blames the ABC - the largest, richest and most implacable of them all, and “key to the media witch-hunt”. And so say all of us who don’t belong to the looney Left. What a disgraceful organisation to be receiving a billion dollars a year to smear and ruin peoples lives and reputations.

George Pell has behaved like a man who knows there is no God.

Mr Mark Weinberg has behaved like a man who knows a man who knows there is no God and who was also not dressed for the occasion.

Now that the innocent Cardinal has left Victoria, all other Catholic clerics - all Catholics for that matter - would be advised to seek refuge in other states.
