Our Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews said - "I have no
comment about today's High Court decision. But I do
have a message to every single victim and survivor
of child sexual abuse:

I see you

I hear you

I believe you."

Well we all knew Andrews was a raving ratbag, but anyone who can give such an assurance to accusers should be in a mental institution, not a parliament.

If he is not aware of many false accusations in all walks of life he must be blind deaf & pretty dumb.

As far as I am concerned, if it takes decades to make an accusation, it is highly unlikely it ever happened, & must be proved to be accepted.

Dear Hasbeen,

I know electing judges is what happens in your country or in the case of Federal Judges appointed by your president, but here in Australia we recognise how terribly toxic that is to any notions of justice.

Can I remind you that in the Pell case it was a jury of ordinary Australians who ended up convicting Pell, not those judges you are crapping on about. From then on it was all about getting around that conviction. This is were the perversion of our system lies, where money and influence can negate the decision of a sworn jury even though the witness they relied on to deliver their verdict was found at the highest level to be "thoroughly credible and reliable".

So to use your vernacular it was a bunch of ivory tower academic types who tossed out the decision of the ordinary citizenry and yet you are cheering them on.

those degenerates who went after Pell knowing they had no substancial proof have done real victims of child abuse great harm. I am sure Daniel Andrews would of believed the lying feminist making up stories against Kavanaugh. Its all about sides not justice for regressives. The abc has done more harm than good bring up old stuff that could not make it to court and presenting it as 'new' claims. What a bunch of overpaid deceptive people.

so the ABC got Pell convicted, not the jury, nor the people who complained about him, or the police that charged him.

Really, some of you are obsessed with merely bagging the ABC and forget how the situation started.

Dear runner,

How dare someone who has given unequivocal support for a member of his faith's leadership who has in the very least protected, transferred, supported, and lied for those who have raped and buggered thousands of Aussie kids?

This man is one of the true degenerates independent of whether you think he is guilty of forcing himself of choir boys.

Think of the literally thousands of poor souls he could have saved had his concerns been for those children rather than his 'Church'.

He was a base enabler of horrific acts and you have the temerity to call those whose work secured a Royal Commission degenerates?

You don't have that right and I would think many of those victims who rightly see you as an obnoxious, odious piece of apologist garbage.

After today's decision would anybody in their right mind want to take their case to the High Court for a determination?
