Well worth a watch. Nick Xenophon, a senator with a particular interest in cults and an opponent of Scientology in Australia gave the opening remarks for one of the sessions. This is the first session of the conference, check out the other videos too.

Excellent Mickey Mouse thanks.
Australia is far more likely to hit back at cults than some countries. I think they have a more balanced approach to religious freedom.
Thank you Mickey mouse.
Well worth the watch.
Nick Xenophon's comments are in this video. A few people have suggested we enlist his support in the Victoria situation.
I guess I should've replied to this link instead of sizemik's. Either way, Thank you for posting.
(my repeated response) WOW, that was long!
great to hear the right language describing in detail the way cults work and the reasons they need to be held accountable.
one comment at the end.... paraphrasing .... there are many groups and organizations with different beliefs - some whacky & outrageous, some quietly under the radar but they all use the same methodology and are really so similar it is frightening.
Open talk about Scientology, the French laws, Exclusive Brethern and others, and the mention of one cult they could/would not mention by name..... hmmmm. Maybe it's one with a sensitive court case? hmmm
I feel like I'm one of the people they are trying to reach, in that this subject needs to be talked about openly, but I'm afraid to post this link to family, friends, facebook, politicians, etc. The fear is BECAUSE of the CULT.
thanks for posting.
