We Pacific Kids may need to take legal action. We're left with very few options. Our Kids Parliament is becoming more and more justified. Simply broadcasting our concerns and solutions may not be enough, especially if it is met with stern opposition by those that are less concerned, less informed and less skilled.
We Kids struck it lucky at the most opportune time. By some strange quirk of nature, our presence was required for an unrelated court proceedings in London - someone thought we had been abandoned on an uninhabited island in the middle of the Pacific, and even if we had, what is wrong with that? The rest of the Kids in the world (and most of the adults, unfortunately) would be envious. Anyway, during the trial (we were invited to London to try, surprisingly, to get 12 adults off some serious child abuse charges - they were all our film directors, remember? We were the key witnesses: I mean for Gods' sake, we Kids insisted that we be left behind on this uninhabited island as the rescue boat departed, full of camera gear and these whinging Pommies who had not only become our best friends, but had also stopped whinging - they didn't want to leave either. However, the viewers misconstrued the circumstances we Kids were in, and yet we had broadcast our views for over 12 months convincing the whole world that we were onto something here).
At least we can rely on 'contempt of court' allegations should our adults fail or refuse to follow the courts' decisions. And this is where Judge Tui Vui comes in. And we Kids will go to the Privy Council in London if we have to.
