Sue Higginson

Sue Higginson is a Greens MLC in New South Wales, Australia, and serves as the party's justice spokesperson. She has recently been involved in several newsworthy events. Firstly, she alleged that NSW Corrective Services illegally monitored her phone calls with prisoners and threatened those inmates who sought her assistance. This claim is under scrutiny and raises concerns about privacy and ethical conduct within the corrections system. Secondly, Higginson criticized the decision to have heavily armed police patrol places of worship and protests, arguing it could increase the risk of violence. Finally, she and the Greens party have condemned the police response to a Sydney protest against Isaac Herzog, describing it as "corporal punishment of peaceful community". These actions highlight Higginson's role as a vocal advocate for justice, civil liberties, and police accountability within the NSW parliament and broader community.
