  “I have grave concerns about the conduct of the International Criminal Court. I’ll state that and I’ll be very clear about it. I have grave misgivings about their approach, about the culture, and what this means for Israel and for our allies.”

  Anything more concrete and tangible than that Mr “party of law and order” who’d disobey an international court because of his feelings? Chances are that might require explicitly denying war crimes.

  Does he hear himself? I thought this bloke used to be a cop?

  Imagine hearing “I have grave concerns about the conduct of the magistrate’s court. I would welcome a fugitive I’ve never met to my home and not turn him over to the authorities”.

  I’d sound like a criminal. Because at that point I would be. Australia is a signatory to the ICC. We are bound by its rulings.

  Peter Dutton’s misgivings are irrelevant. Either the world can take Australia at its word when it comes to treaties or it can’t. It would not go well for us as a nation if we told the world that we no longer honour our treaties when our (possible) PM doesn’t feel like it.
