RIGHTS TRASHED

Jail alert for revealing nuclear waste shipments

The government is seeking to introduce laws which would jail anyone - including journalists - who flagged the shipment of radioactive waste in Australia, Greens leader Senator Bob Brown warned today.
The laws also would jail any journalist who reported on the shipment in advance, he said.
The nuclear non-proliferation bill had serious ramifications for democracy in Australia, Senator Brown said.
