Twitter has gone into melt down as usual..[b]accusation=guilt[/b] because they don't like his right wing views.

The man once said that [b]hedda[/b] should [i]"never work again in Sydney"[/i] over some slight but I support even my "enemies" when I  perceive injustice.

I first heard of him when I was working on an Oz/ UK magazine and he was busted at the notorious (pretty police) [b]Piccadilly toilets[/b] while staying at the [b]Ritz[/b] in the late 80s..for [i]"importuning"[/i] so I covered the case.

It was huge news in Oz and the police soon realised they weren't dealing with a suburban accountant who would meekly go to their fate the next day..a court appearance and fine/admonishment from a judge and hopefully no publicity in the local rag.

No this chap had [b]Rupert Murdoch[/b] on his side with [i]The Sun[/i] and [i]Times[/i] guaranteeing massive public, a [b]top QC[/b] & support not just from pals (then) [b]Lord Geoffrey Archer[/b] but [b]Margaret Thatcher[/b].

Charges were dropped within a day but in Australia the myth persists as [b]arrest= guilt[/b] as well.

Once again Champagne Socialist hedda (are there any others left?) supports a Tory. and the quaint concept.. innocent unless proved guilty in a court of law :ohmy:[/quote]

Green Man	He is guilty because he is the wrong sex.
hedda	being found guilty does not of course necessarily mean you are.
