Looks like the Aussie Public can see this guy for what he is worth! Nothing!
Here are some newspaper blog responses.

I would love to go back to Bali but am hesitant to do so since the bombings in Kuta / Jimbaran Bay. I'd dearly love to go back (and am still thinking about it) but the fear of terrorism which seems to be aimed at tourists really is a deterant. Schappelle Corby definitely has NOTHING to do with my decision to not return to Bali at this point. I've been there since her arrest and didn't hear her name in Bali once, and I certainly didn't get the impression that Australia had a bad name there. I don't know whether Schappelle Corby is innocent or not, but in my opinion, this designer is using her name solely for publicity. Are the clothing designs not good enough to get publicity without the Schappelle stunt? Would we have read about the fashion show if the Schappelle t-shirts hadn't been used on the run way? I doubt it.

I understand that most Balinese are Hindus. Hindus believe in Karma. Karma means that the actions one performs will come back as actions that affect you. Hopefully this Nicholas Morley scumbag will end up being blown-up by a terrorist or railroaded into an Indonesian jail for 20 years for a crime he didn't commit. Why is a supposedly Aussie fashion designer based in Bali anyway? Is it the cheapness of accommodation (let's face it, he can't be making a lot of money from his crap designs) or is it just the plentiful supply of cheap child prostitutes in this fundamentally corrupt society?

Why is our government not investigating the Corbys? If they are as guilty as the public believes, investigate and charge them. Doesn¿t the fact that even during Schapelle¿s trial no police force has ever investigated them and that Jodie Powers and Channel 7 are being taken to court for defamation give you pause? From the time of the trial, we have had reports of Australian marijuana flooding into Bali under the name of ¿Aussie Gold¿ and even the Bali Police spoke of the high value of this ¿lemon juice,¿ as one Indonesian officer called it. It seems that smokers in Bali are well aware of this ¿superior¿ product that is allegedly being sold by Westerners because they are fearful of buying from the local dealers who more often than not, turn out to be under-cover police. It appears that everyone knows about this and yet in spite of the fact that these Western dealers are said to be operating under the noses of under cover police, not one Western dealer has been arrested in Bali and not one leaf of Australian marijuana has ever been seized. The Corby case will continue to be mentioned because there are far too many unanswered questions. Posted by: David Wolf of Perth 10:27am today

I don't and won't be going to Bali and it has nothing to do with Schappelle. It has to do wtih how the Indo Gov. reacted and treated the Bali bommers, who are now free. Clearly indicating that the Indo. Gov isn't serious about terrorists or setting a deterant for any would be terrorists. So that being the case, I can find plenty of other beautiful places to visit for a holiday, free of thinking about how little life is valued over there. This was pure publicity and I wouldn't think it would be taken seriously by anyone.. I won't be buying Nicholas Morley clothing if his clothes are as cheap and nasty as his tactics.

Black and white for his t-shirt was an inspired choice from Morley to reflect his black and white views on Schapelle Corby. With her case there is a small matter of evidence missing that couldn't lie; such as the origin of the marijuana and the weighing of her luggage. With his lame t-shirt, Morley emotionally and drastically blames Schapelle for the entire collapse of the Bali economy; while he simultaneously declares he doesn't give a darn about justice. I found Nicholas Morley's collection, largely consisting of black and white and retro '80's unexciting and unoriginal. It's a pity some of the flair and genius of his supposed mate Keith Richards (name-dropping or what!) never rubbed off on this ONE HUNDRED KIILOS? NON ENTITY.

This is poor form by this designer. I too would avoid Bali, not because of terrorist threats or risk of being convicted for drugs but because it is a disgusting squalid excuse for a tourist destination. Once was enough and I wouldn't go back. What gripes me is the millions of dollars our government throw at Indonesia every year only to have them treat us with contempt and ridicule. What happened to the Australia that used to kick arse and not kiss it. Posted by: Joseph of Sydney 9:40am today

I have been to Bali and I was offered marijuana by almosrt every one of the throng of people trying to sell me jiggy-jig pigs and other junk. It is everywhere, and judging by the prices they offered, it would never be worth anyones time bringing it in to the country. In any case, Michelemay be guilty, but she was convicted on evidence that would not get past a preliminary hearing in any fair country. Guilty until proven innocent and evidence that may have proved her innocence conveniently lost. Why would anyone ever want to visit there again? If you don't get bombed by some hate filled madman you might get railroaded for a crime you did not commit. And if the madmans organiser is caught and convicted, he will get a lesser sentence than you!! I for one, will never go to an Indonesian country again, and cheap political fashion statements will not change my mind. Posted by: fair trial? of northern beaches 9:29am today

What a grubby little twirp and scumbag you are Nicholas "Moron"! It's obvious to me that you are another one of those ill informed cretins that knows absolutely nothing about the Schapelle Corby fiasco. The reason people don't want to go to Bali is because of the fear of being blown up by some fanatical halfwit suicide bomber., That's why! But you Morley (Moron) wouldn't have the mental capacity to work that out would you? What an idiot you are! A more appropriate slogan would be; A FAIR TRIAL ABSOLUTELY NOT! FREE SCHAPELLE Anyone who wants to wear one of your slanderous garbage t-shirts Morley should be ashamed of themselves. Don Oliver. Member; Schapelle Action Support Group.

Nicholas whoever he is; is a parasite with as much talent & respect for fashion as the meat sheik has for women. It's a known fact that people in Indonesia who kill and blow up Australian's get let off, while Schapelle who may or may not be guilty, was sentenced out of westerner hatred. I only hope if there are any idiots who are still traveling to Bali or Indonesia that they do not take their children, as children shouldn't be blown up by terrorists or wiped out with a natural disasters because of selfish parents wanting to save a few dollars. People are going to Thailand, safer, and far less hatred for Westerners. Only impoverished people who want to support evil, hatred and terrorism go to Bali or Indonesia.... probably like Nicholas who is more concerned for getting a name for himself, and less concerned for all those Australians and world wide deaths that were murdered through terrorism over there. If Nicholas had half a conscience or brain he would send models down the catwalk that represented a real issue, terrorists from Indonesia who kill anyone who are not Muslim. You know the ones that were sentenced in an Indonesian court, and most walked away free or serving less than 4 months. In Schapelle Corby book at the end there is a picture that was in a mainstream paper. It had Schapelle asking the judge if she could plead guilty to the lesser charge of killing over 200 westerners. Guilt has nothing to do with what is going with Schapelle. She was sentenced out of pure Indonesian hatred for westerners. Indonesia is tainted with death!
