I think the best defence in this situation is publicity. Nothing sterilises the bacillus of public service officiousness and bullying like the light of day....

(more editorialising, I know I know - KP) [...] [...] Roger Migently  from Values Australia is apparently being not-so-gently rogered by lawyers from the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (as it’s now called after deletion of Aborigines and multiculturalism from its masthead), who assert that his styling of his blog as “The Department of Citizenship” on some pages might be misleading and deceptive!!  Without wishing to give legal advice, it sounds like complete frog shit to me.  Maybe it’s time for the blogosphere to start biting back over this sort of nonsense.  How do prominent bloggers like Tim Blair or Tim Dunlop feel about this sort of bullying behaviour.  If they highlighted and conedmned it in an election year, I suspect Howard would rapidly tell DIC (as its acronym now reads) to withdraw.
