Wilson, a former Australian human rights commissioner, ...

Gaaaaah. Journos MUST STOP legitimising this creep. MSM frequently describing him with this CV-extract, sans-context, actively mislead clueless readers into thinking that "oh well then, he must be a pretty good bloke in that case". Journos either should stop mentioning this at all, otherwise always give the proper context, which was that his was a corrupt appointment by an inept corrupt COALition misgovernment, actively at war with the AHRC & Gillian Triggs, & doing all they could to gut & delegitimise it. Far from Wilson's appointment doing him any credit, it is merely testament to that horrific period of delinquent federal governance.

@BinChicken I tried to read this puff piece earlier, but my face began to hurt soon enough from the enormous sneer it engendered. I abandoned it about 2/3 thru. If crap like this is supposed to humanise this bastard, it certainly failed with me, in fact, quite the opposite as it merely confirmed in his own words what a turd he is.

Someone not previously known to me PMd me with the helpful suggestion, which i share here now for other Greens voters, of adopting this new hashtag #IncludeAdam as a protest that political commentators, journos, & especially also the bloody ABC, continue propagating the myth of 2PP, eg, the last & next "leaders debate" only including the pathetic Libs & Labs, ignoring the approaching parity of non-"majors" support. I reckon this is a fine idea!
