Dutton threatens to pull Australia from [international] criminal court (www.aap.com.au)

Mr Dutton says the Albanese government should pressure the court “to make sure that they reverse this terrible decision”....

Seriously we need to be worried. Our system doesn’t concentrate too much power on the PM but the far right faction of the LNP are ascendant within the party right now and Dutton has been clear what his goals are.

You can read his inaugural speech here: www.peterdutton.com.au/about/maiden-speech/ and most of his goals are there. He has been continually banging the law and order drum since then despite crime rates continuing to drop and Australia being an astoundingly peaceful society.

If he leads a government they will enthusiastically continue the largely bipartisan assault on our rights to privacy and presumption of innocence. I would anticipate greatly increased rates of militarisation of the police and deeper integration with spy agencies/border farce. This is a man who deployed police to stop people in Melbourne and ask for their damn papers. Do not dismiss the threat he poses to equality and justice.
