I feel sorry for the 💧 s.The country has woken up to the inescapable fact that every case tested in Australia’s second wave shows genetic links back to Rydges Hotel on Swanston Street and it’s been comprehensively proven that #DictatorDan refused ADF support. #danliedpeopledied
Which is why I find it odd that they’re delaying Judge Coate’s board of inquiry: it’s just draws out the pain. The smart move was to fire the minister responsible 2 weeks ago & move on: Dan in control, smashing the curve. All the credit will be forgotten when they face the music
And today’s parliamentary inquiry farce of “yes I’m chairing the committee investigsting & yes I’m married to the minister’s chief of staff but I am OFFENDED at any suggestion of a conflict of interest” followed with “shouldn’t the opposition be wearing a mask on this zoom call”?
The attack ad writes itself - let’s say the committee clears Pakula - ok well that clearance isn’t worth a jug of piss because of the chair is married to his chief of staff. Having the chair stand aside would have been good for Labor - you could have feigned integrity.
Back in the 90s I would intentionally lose video games to keep my little brother interested in playing - and because it was so cute when he won. Every adult in the room knew precisely what I was doing. But this isn’t a pastime: dozens are dead, thousands unemployed, billions lost
Now is the time for competence and to bring your A game - actually the time for that started back in January - but my point remains now is the time to do it right with the highest expectations for your own team because barely adequate means more funerals, more lost jobs #springst
