The current disarray of our legal situation will undoubtedly be propped up more by their favorite judicial stooges as well.
Anyhow here’s the break-down of what the world is saying:
- UN Chief ‘deplores’ Fiji action
- Commonwealth Secretary-General deplores abrogation of Fiji's constitution
- US “deeply disappointed” by Power Grab in Fiji
- Donors threaten to cut Fiji aid
- Aussie Govt condemns Fiji developments
- McCully: Fiji takes serious step back
- Suva risks expulsion from talks, says Rudd
- Kathy Marks: A long-suffering people who want to live in peace

""Lawyer 'fearful' {judge]
One of the Australian lawyers who ruled that Fiji's 2006 military coup was illegal says he was fearful before handing down the judgement.
Randall Powell SC delivered the judgement in Fiji last Thursday afternoon.
He has since returned to Australia and says a warning was broadcast for Fijians to return to their homes before the decision was read out.
"[I was] a little fearful when people had been told to go home at 3:30," he said.
"After the judgement was delivered I received a phone call stating that we should get out of Suva and onto an early flight if we could."
Mr Powell says he cannot imagine what the ramifications will be.
"To purport to sack the whole of the judiciary is unimaginable," he said.
"I can't imagine what the consequences will be. Presumably people will just stay in jail without trial."
This is true, I was there in the courtroom. The poor man, he visibly trembled as he looked up and saw a jam-packed public gallery. I was about to put my hand up,had he needed someone to read their judgment, such was my impatience to know the result! As scary as it were, I say to the Appeal Judges - vinaka, vinaka, vinaka vakalevu!
The true can never be silenced for long thank you to the lawyers of SDL... Vinaka vaka levu
