Rachel: (on what to do when told you will be strip searched) "What you need to do is say 'what's your grounds', 'have you charged me with anything' and 'I need to speak to my lawyer'."

Very convenient to take this stance against law enforcement until something goes wrong. And when it does there is a commission into why someone wasn’t appropriately searched! You can’t have it both ways.

Or you could try not being a defiant dick head & simply comply with the police request. Unless of course you have something to hide. If not, then why the song & dance?

Strip searching occurs, one would assume, if there are sufficient grounds. It’s like an extension to the standard detector scan. For a more invasive procedure justification is definitely warranted.

How dare they? Didn't they know who you were? To be randomly treated like any mug pleb must have been such an affront to your high sense of self.

They were checking Waleed's genitals after he declared "male" on his departure card.

I was at state school and a teacher told me to pick up a piece of rubbish I had thrown on the ground. The power imbalance was horrific and I didn’t know where it was going to end. I’ve never been more angry or shaken.

The power imbalance of someone earning 10x times more than the average Australian and be given a soap box to preach from on prime television is absolutely horrific. Waleed needs to check his privilege
