THE Greens leader, Senator Christine Milne, has endorsed a controversial hoax by an anti-coal activist, saying his actions were ''part of a long and proud history of civil disobedience, potentially breaking the law, to highlight something wrong''.
Her comments came after a tweet by her colleague Lee Rhiannon, who publicly congratulated Jonathan Moylan, an activist under scrutiny for impersonating a bank and temporarily wiping $314 million off the value of Whitehaven Coal.

How can law-makers decide that some laws they make are ok to break?
This is really scary stuff. Where do they draw the line? What about the workers' super funds that lost money as a result? And lose they did.
