David McBride, a whistleblower, has been sentenced to five years and eight months in prison. His case highlights a troubling reality: the first person imprisoned in relation to Australian war crimes in Afghanistan is the one who exposed them, not the perpetrators.

This sends a chilling message to potential whistleblowers nationwide: speak out and risk everything. The impact on democracy is profound, matched only by the toll on McBride and his family. He's not alone – Richard Boyle faces trial later this year. We cannot allow this to continue.

The Federal Government possesses the authority to intervene in these instances, yet has neglected to do so, despite acknowledging the flaws in the laws designed to safeguard whistleblowers.

Join us in demanding a full pardon for McBride, an end to the prosecution of whistleblowers like Boyle, and urgent reform of whistleblower protections.

Australia is a better place when wrongdoing is exposed. But right now, two whistleblowers face jail for helping reporters tell the truth. Whistleblowers should be protected, not prosecuted. Sign the petition now!
