In particular Judge Tilmouth said that

"The fundamental shortcomings of the applicants in the field, the failure to secure adequate consents and the posture of avoiding scrutiny and accountability for precipitous decision making, tell heavily against the proposed mining operations going ahead,"

He said the Kokatha people's genuine, longstanding and consistently voiced opposition to mining weighed against approval.

"The applicants' breach of the exploration licence together with their violations of the rights and interests of the Kokatha, especially Straits' unacceptable, unforgivable and unaccountable resolve to continue the drilling to further its own ends at the expense of other interests, tell heavily against it"

Oh dear!!! "Unacceptable"! "Unforgivable"! "Unaccountable"!

What have Strait's done!!!

Crime of the Century!!!

It will be interesting to see if the Appeals Court confirms Judge Tilmouth's findings!
