The Inconvenient Truth
THE INCONVENIENT TRUTH DAVID HILL RAF Chinook ZD576 Mull of Kintyre, Scotland 2 June 1994 29 dead RAF Air Marshals blamed the two pilots. Their position was that the onus of disproving negligence was on the deceased. When the pilots were eventually cleared in 2011, Ministers and the Crown Office decided that was the end of the matter - true cause and culpability was now irrelevant. Why? Who benefits? The clues lay in what MoD had concealed. The families, Fatal Accident Inquiry and Parliament were lied to. For example, all were told that evidence removed from the crash scene before investigators arrived had been examined and could not have caused any harm. This outright lie was later exposed when documents MoD had denied the existence of were uncovered. This and other fresh evidence is examined here for the first time. The ends of justice have been defeated by those charged with administering it. Once again it is left to the public to publish the facts. 'This new book exposes the truth for bereaved families as never before. It is time for legal authorities to take heed of this professional research'.

Misery Hill
David Wheatley s first collection, Thirst, was widely praised for its restless adventures in time and place. Misery Hill concentrates on what look like more familiar locales. The Dublin street of its title is a derelict site which, in the author s hands, becomes powerfully evocative of the secret and forgotten life of the city. Alternating between Dublin and County Wicklow, Misery Hill interrogates the present in the light of the past, exploring time and memory in poems deeply rooted in the psychic geography of their settings. These range from explorations of family history, politics and love to the title poem s long purgatorial journey through a city uneasily reminiscent of contemporary Dublin.
1788
An extraordinary narrative history of the First Fleet, by the bestselling author of The Forgotten Children. Never before or since has there been an experiment quite as bold as this. Set against the backdrop of Georgian England with its peculiar mix of elegance, prosperity, progress and squalor, the story of the First Fleet is one of courage, of short-sightedness, of tragedy but above all of extraordinary resilience. It is also, of course, the story of the very first European Australians, reluctant pioneers who travelled into the unknown - the vast majority against their will - in order to form a colony by order of the King's government. Separated from loved ones and travelling in cramped con...
Red 5
Revised and updated, June 2021; including addenda discussing links to the Shoreham accident and MoD's involvement; linkages to the death of Red Arrows engineer Corporal Jon Bayliss in March 2018, where 12 contributory factors remained after the Cunningham accident; and the BBC broadcasting a programme about the Cunningham accident in which it and the HSE knowingly lied about events. This is a story of unrelenting misconduct and injustice. Martin-Baker, designers of the world's best escape system, were prosecuted for not providing information they had already supplied many times, but which the MoD instructed its engineers not to use. Applying this information would have saved Sean Cunningham's life. The Health and Safety Executive and Lincolnshire Police did not evaluate verbal, written and video evidence proving the allegation false. The Coroner and Cunningham family were misled. The Judge even named an MoD recipient. This subversion of the judicial system has placed military aircrew, passengers and the public at greater risk.

Reckoning
The Forgotten Children was David Hill's heartbreaking account of the abuse that he and other 'orphans of empire' survived at the Fairbridge Farm School in New South Wales. Part memoir, part oral history, the book became a bestseller. It was also the catalyst in a subsequent battle for justice, which resulted in the Fairbridge kids being awarded a record $24 million in compensation by the NSW Supreme Court. And that was just the start of a reckoning with institutional abuse of power that reverberates to this day. In Reckoning David recounts stories of the shocking systemic abuse at Fairbridge, and how he led the fight against the powerful people and organisations - including the Australian an...
