Cevap
In Australia, equality under the law means that all people are equal under the law, and no person or group is above the law, including the government and the police.
The principle of equality under the law is a fundamental part of Australian democracy. It ensures that every person is treated the same by the courts and the legal system, and that no one—including the Prime Minister, the government, or the police—is exempt from following the law.
