‘We were honest’: French sub snub defended

Former Liberal frontbencher Christian Porter has revealed he was spat at in the street after what he describes as a trial by media over “false” rape allegations, but he won’t be paying back the money secured through a blind trust that triggered his resignation.

After offering his resignation to the Prime Minister on Sunday after he was unable to disclose who donated to a trust fund that paid his defamation case legal fees, the MP has catalogued “vile” abuse that he said his staff, friends and family have been subjected to for months.

The legal fees were to cover the cost of a private defamation action he launched against the ABC.

Mr Porter sued over an article revealing an unnamed cabinet minister was the subject of a 1988 rape allegation. He chose to self-identify as the target of the allegation in March.

In late May, he discontinued the case after the ABC agreed to add an editorial note to the story stating it did not intend to suggest Mr Porter had committed the alleged offence and that “both parties accept that some readers misinterpreted the article as an accusation of guilt”.

The story remains online.

The ABC did not pay him any damages but did agree to pay $100,000 towards the cost of the mediation towards settlement of the matter, leaving him with huge legal bills.

The national broadcaster spent $780,000 on its own legal fees, providing some insight into the potential scale of his own legal bills.

But the fallout went beyond financial and had led to vile abuse from strangers according to Mr Porter.

“Facing a false allegation is an experience that places your family, friends and staff under enormous and cruel pressure,’’ he said.

“It has resulted in constant abuse and ongoing threats. For me personally, the physical threats of violence, the experience of being spat at and publicly abused for something I didn’t do has been nearly beyond comprehension in a civilised country.”

Mr Porter went on to describe the allegations raised by his late accuser, who died by suicide last year as “bizarre” and based on “repressed memory syndrome” which is “dangerous and discredited”.

His accuser and her supporters have previously rejected suggestions that her recollections are based on recovered memories.

Mr Porter insists the events claimed “never happened” and he never had sex with the woman in 1988.

VIDEO: Trudeau Says Vaccine Passports Are ‘All About’ Rewarding People Who Do ‘The Right Things,’ Hurting Those Who ‘Hesitate’ or ‘Resist’

Trudeau's remarks appear to closely align with theories promoted by COVID vaccine skeptics

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claimed this week that vaccine mandates and passports are “all about” rewarding government subjects who have “done the right things,” and making sure that those who “hesitate” or “still resist” don’t “get to enjoy the same things that [sic] those who have done their part for others.”

“We’re paying for the provincial vaccine passports to make sure that when someone comes into a restaurant, they’ll know they won’t be sitting beside a table of people who are unvaccinated,” Trudeau said. “When you go into a gym, when you go into a movie theater, you need to know that if you’ve done the right things, you get to be safe. You get to be rewarded for having done the right things.”

Trudeau continued, “And those people who still hesitate, who still resist, they won’t get to enjoy the same things that those [sic] who have done their part for others. It seems like a very logical thing, it seems like a very obvious thing.” The Canadian Prime Minister’s remarks closely aligned with those of COVID vaccine skeptics, who have argued that vaccine passports and mandates are about punishing those who dissent from the government, rather than about medical concerns.

Angry citizens pelted Trudeau with gravel at a recent campaign stop in Canada, greeting him chants of “F**k you Trudeau”:

Video footage from London, Ontario shows anti-lockdown and COVID vaccine protesters pelt Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau with gravel at a campaign stop. The Prime Minister’s hardline stance on vaccines and lockdowns, as well as his expressed desire to use COVID as a vehicle for a “reset,” has angered many Canadians.

Trudeau was greeted with jeers, boos, chants of “F*k you Trudeau,” “you ccksucker,” and signs promoting candidates from the People’s Party of Canada. He was then pelted with what appeared to be gravel pebbles as he left the scene.
