Good treatment and comments on the secrecy of the Abbott Government.
Governments which are not accountable and manipulative love to have a 'threat' with which to motivate the fear they can exploit among citizens. This piece shows how the current Australian government has shut down the agencies and sources with which Australians know what is happening in their country. Whistlebolwers like Assange and Snowdon have not endangered national securities as they have endangered the credibility of governments and endangered the unaccountable antics of politicians.
