MEDIA RELEASE
For immediate release
Prime Minister’s national ‘Apology’ delivered
today to the Forgotten Children and Former
Child Migrants.
Today, Prime Minister Rudd today made his ‘Sorry’ speech from Australia to
the ‘Forgotten Children and Former Child Migrants’. This is a critical first
step towards healing for the long-suffering victims of the greatest childcare
disaster in Australia’s history.
Hawkins, himself a ‘forced migrant child’ from Britain tells in his book about
the crimes against humanity that were committed by both British and
Australian government authorities and social workers at Australia House in
London and how they were engaged in criminal neglect in the frenzy to get
British children to fill Australian orphanages, fast.
John Hawkins’ book, ‘The Bush Orphanage’, contains the most compiled and
documented history surrounding this disaster that has ever been presented.
There is no documentation to be found in Britain that reveals the appalling
actions undertaken by the two governments. The author however during his
many years of research, legally obtained evidence that was probably never
meant to see the light of day again, and reveals how both governments
shirked their legal and moral responsibility for the lives of these little
innocents.
