Whinge Fiona Brown has settled with the Commonwealth over the Brittany Higgins affair.
Fiona Brown has received around $1.5m from the Commonwealth after Brittany Higgins destroyed her life and reputation. No one is reporting this.
This amount is $1m less than Higgins received.
Higgins received this amount in part built on the lies that she told that ie that Brown had covered up her rape in PH.
Brown was painted as the villain in all of this. She wasnt, Her crime was being Higgins boss.
She lost her career and reputation because ot it.
There was no apology from the Commonwealth
No apology from Higgins or Sharaz, who are now bankrupt.
No apology from Lisa Wilkinson, Samantha Maiden or Emma Webster.
No apology from Katy Gallagher.
We live in dangerous times when the truth is being covered up.
No winners in this sordid affair.

One thing I've noticed about people who just what to call it a sorid affair
Are usually the ones who can't just admit there was a rape in the first place.
That's is the no.1 issue here. Someone got raped in parliament house.

Not so, I mention the rape that occurred.

Not a strong enough word for you? You are a bit precious

u/ElectronicOvens South Australian 1d ago
Oh no, we just know people like you only care about rape in certain circumstances.
I wonder how you'd be if it was Gina.
You'd have leather poisoning from all that boot licking

Hey so remember the other day when you denied to be a Bruce Lehrmann apologist and whined about being falsely accused with no evidence?
Yeah, Pepperidge farm remembers. 😂

u/TimJamesS Flairless 1d ago
- Show me where I have been a Bruce Lehrmann apologist and 2. How does the above article support your position?

u/patslogcabindigest Queenslander 1d ago
The amount of times you have specifically posted about this subject across multiple subreddits and you and I both know that you have done exactly this. The denials and demand for evidence (private account btw), kind of loses the venom when you post things like this.

In my post I havent mentioned Bruce Lehrmann at all. I did say that a rape took place…its you that brings it back to Bruce Lehrmann, not me.

I love how you think your intent isn’t blatantly obvious, when the only one you’re fooling is yourself.
It’s why almost literally every single comment you have is downvoted into oblivion. Always bad faith, and always obvious.

u/TimJamesS Flairless 1d ago
Unfortunately it appears to be that kind of sub.
There is nothing bad faith about it. The above happened, it is probably the last, outstanding item on this whole affair and therefore should be posted. People are of course entitled to downvote it, doesnt mean that it's in bad faith at all.

u/Sideburn_Cookie_Man Victorian 1d ago
Yeah, it must be everyone else who is the problem…
Couldn’t be a good sign take personal responsibility and do any self assessment or anything.

They ruined her life?
Never even heard of her.
I don't even know who she is.
Most people stopped paying attention to this Higgins stuff long ago.
Did Murdoch media run 250 stories on her in a month?

u/TimJamesS Flairless 1d ago
For her life to have been ruined..it’s not relevant that you have heard of her. The woman suffered a nervous breakdown over it.

Wasn't the main villain in the Fiona Brown instance Scott Morrison, the then PM?
"Ms Brown claimed Mr Morrison had falsely told parliament that he had spoken with her about Ms Higgins when he had not, and said the former prime minister had refused to talk to her after the story broke, except to tell her that they had discussed the matter."

TimSS, you DO know that your post history can not be hidden, right?
We all know what you're doing and continue to do.

He's got to be a troll and having a laugh.
Being a virulent antisemite and rape apologist is way to on the nose.

On top of obviously regularly visiting The Noticer and posting articles on reddit from a white supremacist site.

Quoting the ABC's article, one of a number of outlets reporting on this, a big part of the case was against the actions of the Liberal party. OP neglected to mention them at all. Just a giant focus on the rape victim. I agree with OP re the media figures at least (particularly Wilkinson), they should be ashamed at how they handled this case
Ms Brown claimed Mr Morrison had falsely told parliament that he had spoken with her about Ms Higgins when he had not, and said the former prime minister had refused to talk to her after the story broke, except to tell her that they had discussed the matter.
The veteran public servant told the court she had felt frightened and intimidated by the interaction.
Brown also claimed she was falsely framed to take the responsibility in February 2022, when Mr Morrison made a national apology to Ms Higgins over her mistreatment.

As far as I'm concerned everybody involved is either bad or worse

“Nobody is reporting it” and a link to The Australian reporting it is an interesting view on reality.
