Another 30 people have bn transferred out of #NapierBarracks 2night with just 10mins notice & no idea where they are going. The selection process seems haphazard random selection, regardless of #Covid pos/neg. For those tht leave the future is uncertain &those that stay its bleak

Just sharing a glimpse of the personal attacks I’ve had online over my #NapierBarracks reporting recently... The devastating thing is that it’s just a drop in the ocean compared to what people have commented about #AsylumSeekers

On many occasions while reporting on #Assange this week, #MSM crews shooed me & told me to get out of the way. Who the hell are you & where the hell have you been? A BIG reason why Assange is where he is has a LOT to do wth a lack of MSM coverage. So, no,YOU get out MY f***** way
