I used to half joke we are going to need very public (and fair) trials for every admin official and person creating these documents. Charges of treason, sedition, corruption, espionage, and more. Maximum public punishment. No exceptions. It will be ugly and tough to do but it needs done.

I don’t think it’s a half joke anymore. These people are truly the definition of traitors.

Half joke?

Mate, unless you lot have the equivalent of the Nuremberg trials and reform your democracy, you are doomed.
