Asylum seekers and refugees have escaped conflict, persecution, war or terror. Many are survivors of torture and trauma. Some also have underlying health issues including diabetes, hypertension or other respiratory issues that put them at serious risk of contracting Covid-19. The Government knew that people trapped in close confinement to others, sharing rooms, eating in food halls and having lots of interaction with staff are at serious risk of contracting and spreading Covid-19, let alone those with serious pre-existing physical and mental health conditions. The Government’s own Department of Health advice said that people locked in refugee detention are at the highest level of risk for contracting Covid-19. The Grata community enabled a legal challenge against Peter Dutton and the Department of Home Affairs on the basis that they breached their duty of care by not providing conditions where individual refugees could physically distance. One plaintiff had fled danger in 2013 to seek safety in Australia. He was placed on Manus Island and had recently been medically transferred to Australia because of multiple health conditions. His health issues meant he was in danger of death in confinement. Grata will continue to use the power of the courts to protect and advance the rights of Asylum Seekers and Refugees.

  • British Politics and Policy at LSE: Royal Archives That We Pay for but Aren’T Allowed to Read: a Brief History Page 1 of 3
    British Politics and Policy at LSE: Royal archives that we pay for but aren’t allowed to read: a brief history Page 1 of 3 Royal archives that we pay for but aren’t allowed to read: a brief history The Cabinet Office recently blocked publication of Lord Mountbatten’s diaries. Iain McLean, Scot Peterson, and Richard Reid write that this is not the first time when archives funded by the taxpayer have not been available after the standard embargo period, the effect being that public knowledge of key constitutional and political events is limited. The Guardian recently reported that the Cabinet Office is blocking access to some of the papers of Lord and Lady Mountbatten. The papers were ‘acquired for the nation’ in 2010, with the assistance of (what is now) the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Announcing the grant, the Fund stated: [T]he University of Southampton is on track to ensure that the records of those who stood at the very forefront of British political life will be preserved for future generations of historians, scholars and the public to explore and enjoy. The Guardian reports that, despite an order from the Information Commissioner, the university has refused to allow access to some of the Mountbatten MSS, in particular the Mountbattens’ diaries and some correspondence. Although the reports do not specify the content of the papers being withheld or the reason why they are withheld, Mountbatten was involved in numerous events of constitutional importance – from the independence and partition of India to an embryonic plot to overthrow Harold Wilson’s government in 1968.

Transcript Alex Mann: John, thank you again. John Menadue: Glad to be here. Thank you. Alex Mann: Can you just take me back to the period before you actually started working for Gough Whitlam? What were you doing before you entered into the employ of Gough and the government? John Menadue: That takes me back to my South Australian days. I was a boy from the country in South Australia. I was the son of a Methodist Minister. We were always on the move. I went to 12 schools in 11 years, so I had to adapt pretty quickly. After graduation from Adelaide University in economics I got employment with the Bureau of Stats. in Adelaide. I found it terribly boring coding retail census forms. So when the first opportunity came, I applied and then got an appointment in Canberra, with the Bureau of Stats. I was there for about 18 month and then joined Treasury briefly. I'd been active in the Labor Party at Adelaide University and active in opposition to White Australia. And I knew people in the ALP such as Don Dunstan and Clyde Cameron. I learnt through Clyde Cameron that Gough Whitlam the new deputy leader in 1960 was looking for a secretary. So I put up my hand immediately. I was interviewed very briefly by Gough .He didn't know me beforehand. Alex Mann: Do you remember what kind of questions he asked you? John Menadue: He asked me very few.

  • Jenny Hocking on the Dismissal
    MEDIA RELEASE Date: 22/3/2020 From: Australian Book Review (03) 9699 8822 | [email protected] Jenny Hocking on the dismissal In 1975 the governor general, John Kerr, removed a democratically elected Labor government, amid great intrigue and subterfuge. The dismissal of the Whitlam government remains one of the blights on our democracy – perhaps the most controversial event in Australian political history. And yet the full record of what happened in the weeks and months leading up to the dismissal is still unavailable to Australian citizens because of the intransigence of Queen Elizabeth and the expensive lengths to which the National Archives of Australia have gone to suppress access to John Kerr’s correspondence with Buckingham Palace. Jenny Hocking – emeritus professor of history at Monash University and biographer of Gough Whitlam – has led the case to overturn the National Archives ban. Her article ‘At Her Majesty’s Pleasure: Sir John Kerr and the royal dismissal secrets’ appears in the April issue of ABR. An extract appears below. The complete article will be released on March 30. Jenny Hocking will appear on an episode of the ABR Podcast on March 25 (available from the ABR website, iTunes and other pod- cast apps). ‘In terms of the historiography, the last decade has been sharp corrective to history, propelled by a series of archival revelations that have gradually and collectively recast our understanding of the dismissal and challenged even its most established historical facts. It is remarkable that even today, more than four decades later, critical documents about the dismissal remain secret, hidden from public view and from history.

But in the chapter 'Sir John Kerr's Second Dismissal' Hocking makes it explicit: from this moment on, this moment that I remember so vividly, Whitlam should have been restored to office. Kerr was obsessively afraid of Whitlam calling the Palace to sack Kerr if he told Whitlam that he was thinking of sacking him. For many, the actions the Whitlam government had taken the infamous loans affair more than justified his dismissal.

  • Hazel Rowley Memorial Lecture 2018 the Wheeler Centre
    ‘THE POLITICS OF BIOGRAPHY: GOUGH WHITLAM, THE DISMISSAL AND HIDDEN HISTORY’ Hazel Rowley Memorial Lecture 2018 The Wheeler Centre. Melbourne. 8 March 2018 It is a very great honour to present the 2018 Hazel Rowley Memorial Lecture tonight. Hazel Rowley was an acclaimed biographer, essayist and public intellectual, whose many works, biographical and otherwise, explored the lives of exceptional men and women – often in partnership, and always illuminating - their lives, relationships, and also their history. She was an exemplar of the possibility of biography. In Janet Malcolm‘s searing contemplation on ‘the transgressive nature of biography’, a form at which she herself excelled by the way, she famously characterized the biographer as akin to a professional burglar – prying, snooping, trespassing, disinterring and worse, making money from the lives of those who can no longer speak for themselves. While Malcolm’s disdain for her own kind relates primarily to the more salacious, publicity-driven, field of journalism as biography, her moral critiques are no less compelling for the consideration of the historian as biographer. If the biographical endeavour is inherently transgressive, in Malcolm’s ruthless take-down, then so too are the ethics of those practicing this dark art.1 Like Malcolm, I deplore the tendency to take a life as it was lived and reconstitute it as a sort of cheapened version of a biographical meme, 1 Janet Malcolm The Silent Woman 1993] 1 based more on speculation than investigation, and willfully constructing a scandalized life from a political one. But, is this really all that biography can ever be? The narrativisation of scandal; ‘listening to backstairs gossip and reading other people's mail’, as Malcolm describes it.
