‘Unbelievable’: Public servants sign open letter to cease military exports to Israel

Public servants have come under fire after signing an open letter calling for the federal government to cease military exports to Israel. Liberal Senator Dave Sharma expressed outrage over the situation claiming public servants are supposed to be apolitical. Several hundred public servants from across Australia signed the open letter calling for the federal government to 'immediately cease all military exports to Israel'. “This is not what a public servant is meant to do, public servants are meant to serve the elected government of the day,” Mr Sharma said. “It’s unbelievable, it’s outrageous.”
