So do the judge and the defense lawyers.
You, on the other hand, likely have no knowledge of Australian law or of the Australian constitution, so I'm really not sure why you feel you can tell me I'm wrong about something I know about and you don't.
Perhaps you will show me where I said I know more about Australian law or constitution than you do.
I have consistently pointed out that the duly appointed judge knows the law and the constitution, heard the case argued before his court and made his decision based on the law. That's what counts.
What you think does not count. Again you are not the judge, but you are free to opine
As do the lawyers who represented the government. But while I assume the Judge does understand the law, I do not believe he has followed it. It was clear very early on in the proceedings, he wasn't that interested in the law, when he came out with the widely quoted "The point that I am somewhat agitated about is what more could this man have done?"
That really wasn't a very Judicial thing to say, and really does give a great insight as to why he ruled the way he did.
Thanks for the advice. If I ever have the opportunity, I’ll take your suggestions.
Judges make remarks like that quite often. It doesn't in the least mean they are not interested in the law. They wouldn't be judges if they were not interested in the law.

No it doesn't. Now you are reaching.
We’ve already established you don’t know about Australian law so how about you just stop telling somebody trained in it how it works.
So far, you haven’t “established” anything, except mouthing off about your total meltdown over the ruling.
Which is fine. People who lose routinely trash the judge.
Chuckle.
