One in four people have criminal records. Many more got into trouble with the police at some point. Can we let people move on and contribute to society (and reduce the number of people with records)?

“Corrupt police misconduct … has significant social consequences. It undermines public confidence in the police force, erodes the morale of honest police officers and can encourage other police to ignore similar behaviour.” DPP v Symes [2024] VCC 1836: classic.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/vic...

In 2024, I see absolutely NO reasonable justification for European scholars to be *flying* to places like Hawaii for conferences. How are we still doing this!? #academicSky

Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, marking the start of the 16 days of Activism. In 2023 every 10 minutes globally a woman is killed by a partner or family member. In 2022 the rate was one woman killed every 11 minutes. 1 minute matters. A thread 🧵👇🏼

ASBOs never disappeared, just changed name...they were simply replaced under the coalition government with civil injunctions and criminal behaviour orders. Latter had all the same powers as ASBOs

They're symbolic, not practical #TotemicToughness

Bit mystified by new Respect orders from the Home Office. There is already law on anti-social behaviour. Pretty sure powers announced for new orders (eg banning from town centres) already available via civil injunctions/criminal behaviour orders. Also concerned that no good data on how to reduce ASB
