MELBOURNE —

What a fighter you were Shirley.  Loved our conversations.  Thank you for your steadfast support always encouraging.  Fight untruths and dishonesty with gusto. Stand up to governments who lie as a first order of business.  RIP Shirley, you deserve it. What a fighter.  What a wonderful human being.  Honoured, loved and remembered forever. ….Lorraine Long

Shirley Shackleton will be remembered as the fearless woman who campaigned for justice for the Balibo Five and East Timor
