Victoria backs down

Reportedly Victoria University has backed down. After some initial confusion over where they had hidden them, the seized magazines have now been released to the masses. There'll be more on the TV tonight as well (in about five minutes - some warning).

I have no idea how much this has cost Salient or the University, but either way it is the students that will pay. That's right, at Vic you can pay for your own oppression. Which is a nice demonstration of why public institutions need to be democratically accountable to their stakeholders.

Several people have offered to donate money to Salient to help cover their costs; if anyone else wants to, email Keith.
