In 2011 the people of NSW will decide who will govern the state for the next four years. Tonight, in Sydney, three legal experts will argue why that decision should not be swayed by the usual “tough on crime” rhetoric. The event is hosted by the Community Justice Coalition and the International Commission of Jurists Australia. Speakers will argue that political point scoring has led to an erosion of human rights in our prisons, and that it’s time to reform the system.
