Good Morning Here is Jason Gregory's 2004 article.   With the utmost respect, I ask that the Church come clean.

This is a secretive, … Continue reading Courier Mail article: 2004 →

The irony is not lost on me. In 1976, Lew went on hunger strike in King George Square because he had been cut off the dole. Among the politicians he talked to at the time was a Social Security Minister, to whom … Continue reading 4-day working week proposed →

Here is a cry for help for Forgotten Australians in Victoria from the Alliance for Forgotten Australians. It is depressingly familiar to us Queenslanders as well. My husband and the father of our children, Lewis Blayse, died in his attempt to be heard at the Royal Commission. I think many FAs felt things would change … Continue reading Save Victoria’s “Open Place” for Forgotten Australians →

Has anyone else spent decades trying to get justice about historic abuse, only to be thwarted at every turn? Here in Queensland it's even worse.
