The fast and loose tactics of activists were on display for all to see this week as a Sri Lankan family faced deportation. As was their complete disregard for upholding Australian law, writes Peta Credlin.

As someone who was not able to have children, willingly choosing to end a pregnancy is something I can’t fathom, writes Peta Credlin.
