Glorian Jeans coffe chain is owned by religious fuckers the Hillsong Church group. Part of their evil fucked up mission was something called Mercy Mission where they promise to help young women "in trouble" (eg drugs, unwanted pregnany, homeless) by forcing them to, in exchange for their "help", stop getting welfare, cut off all ties with their friends and family and go and stay in a refuge for two months until they agree to be shiny happy christians. IE its a fucking cult.
However, in happy happy white puppy schadenfreude victory dance news, The Age reports that they're now insolvent and have been forced to apologise to the women whose lives they damaged. It hardly makes up for it, but I like to see the bad guys get kicked in the balls however lightly.
"In December, Mr Irvine and fellow Mercy Ministry directors admitted engaging in false, misleading and deceptive conduct following an Australian Competition and Consumer Commission investigation into the practices of the Hillsong-connected organisation. They were required to pay $1050 and apologise to each person affected by Mercy Ministries' conduct, all young women with mental health and drug and alcohol problems."
Picking on weaklings: humanity's favourite hobby!
