BRISBANE — “Australia is the only Western democracy without human rights legislation”, James
Whelan from Amnesty International told a public forum attended by 50 people on May 23.
Labor state minister for education Dean Wells argued for a charter of human rights like those
adopted in Victoria and the ACT and that which has been operating for 17 years in New
Zealand. Such a charter requires a statement of compatibility with human rights to
accompany every bill that comes before parliament.
Jessica Moore, who faced police investigation in Wollongong last year under the so-called anti-
terror laws, pointed out that state Labor governments have been collaborating with the
federal Coalition to implement the draconian laws. Moore, an anti-war activist who has
helped organise demonstrations in support of Palestinians’ right to self-determination, was
accused of aiding Hamas in an anonymous complaint to the federal government’s anti-terror
hotline.
“My experience shows that police are political, ideological. These anti-terror laws are totally
against free speech”, Moore said. She urged people to collectively defy the laws and
mobilise against them. “We need to campaign for a bill of human rights to protect our
freedoms.”
