Petition updatePM must order independent inquiry into historical rape allegations against AG PorterLegal practitioners warn my ethical obligations extend to not speaking out about this issue

It has been suggested to me that my ethical obligations as a legal practitioner potentially extend to not calling publically for this inquiry and not restating the allegations in the manner I have. My response is that I believe that it is Christian Porter's legal and ethical obligations that are in question here! Calling for a formal independent inquiry into an alleged rape is not behaving unethically, to suggest such could lead to a culture of coverup in the legal profession which I consider to be unacceptable and the opposite to justice
