Julie Bishop, our Foreign Minister, on The Project right now .... tears in her eyes.
- She has not been given any official notification from the Indonesian govt when they are going to carry out the executions.
- She has heard through the media that the families have left the prison.
- She fears the worst for Andrew and Myuran.
- She has spoken with their families, they are distraught.
- 10 years ago their sons made terrible mistakes. I believe they have paid for their mistakes, and they should be given a second chance.
- We have done everything we can. If Indonesia refuses to listen to our pleas, our representations, then it is not due to our lack of trying.
- It is a ghastly process that the families are being subjected to.
- Short of an intervention now by the Indonesian president, and he has the power to do that, I fear the worst.
- Imagine if it was your son, brother, loved one, that had gone off the rails 10 years ago, but has gone to prison and has rehabilitated themselves and other prisoners.
