Radiation: 7 Minutes with Miss Fisher,
What the two above said. I would bust a foo foo to see the mouse police.
Did see Miss Fisher series. Wasn't quite as edgy as the books and Bert and Cec were a bit too much background, but overall not too bad. -
Legal Beagle: Parliamentary Privilege,…,
I find it somewhat unnerving that I follow your argument, particularly since the context of Parliamentary processes are not models of simplicity. Nice one

This piece seems to me to be a visit into the spaces in another human's life- the dark, painful,grim or unpleasant-memories spaces that we often don't visit. And I am abashed by my ability to say little meaningful beyond thank you. But there we are. Your truth speaks loud.

Hard News: These things we must now change,
I agree with Craig's comment about ChCh having quite a long history of white supremacist groups (It's also had quite a history of left-wing activism). ChCh has been stultifyingly, righteously white and up itself, though I don't feel much need to declare my "ChCh cred" to be able to comment. But Emma Hart's point all of that word-nitpicking's less relevant than the actual situation for the people there is on the money IMO.

Oh to be minus those words of privilege used to justify the violence that is unjustifiable and blaming those who are at the receiving end. Oh to be minus the complacency of media articles that focus, rather in the manner of medieval theologians, on irrelevancies. Thanks for this piece- remarkably controlled in the writing of it.

What an eloquent piece Chelle, and a good thought to give the interviews a bit of preliminary planning. To quote the Quaker phrase it "spoke to my condition"
