This hard-hitting exposé explores:
The colonial foundations of punishment and control.
How British legal traditions still dominate an “independent” nation.
The role of judges, police, and public servants in maintaining the system.
Real-world cases that reveal systemic injustice.
The cost to ordinary citizens - financial, social, and personal.
Practical solutions for a fairer, more transparent legal system.
Blending history, analysis, and shocking examples, this book challenges the illusion of equality before the law. It shows how justice often functions as “paper justice” - words and procedures that protect power while leaving ordinary people vulnerable.
For readers who care about truth, reform, and accountability, this book is a wake-up call to confront the hidden realities of the law in Australia.
