Update: Craig unable to appeal to the Supreme Court
11 September 2021We have been unable to give meaningful updates for a while, but there is some good news... As many of you may have seen in the media over the past few days, Colin Craig has been told he can’t challenge the High Court ruling that he sexually harassed Rachel. Craig has taken his appeal case all the way to the Supreme Court. In a decision on Thursday, the Supreme Court said it would not allow Craig’s challenge.
Donations towards her very high legal costs to date are still welcomed, and we are extremely grateful for all your contributions and support to date. We have today launched a NEW Givealittle fundraiser which you can find here:

We are endeavouring to organise a personal update from Rachel over the next few days. She is feeling relieved, and resting.
Here is Alison Mau's Sunday article in Stuff that covers the events and some of the broader concerns regarding justice:
Please note the High Court's decision on damages is still pending.
