Rooted causes more like.
The ‘Skidmore’ vision for regulatory reform being ‘finished’ in three years is quite realistic; if you can realise just what the statement actually means. The double speak, when translated means that within the next three years industry resistance and outrage will have been broken down, negotiated away or over ruled. Various groups will have been inveigled into cooperation; the protesters isolated or removed and logical, sane alternatives undermined to become ‘an opinion’ of a minority group, denigrated to being the ravings of the Ills of Society or tendentious bloggers. There is no intent whatsoever within CASA to change any ducking thing and they will simply roll over or rub out those who want change, be it internal or external opposition, it matters not.
The long, fell shadow created by the real power behind the throne, exercised by its willing grand vizier, is determined that no one, neither politician nor pleb will disturb the absolute power or ruffle the calm pond of their arrogance. It’s a fair argument, for nothing or no one has managed thus far to dent the defences; from Lockhart through to Pel-Air; from Staunton to Forsyth; from just about any perspective, the only thing that remains unchanged is the ‘regulator’.
Within the ‘regulator’ only one person has remained a constant factor, one person has sat through all inquiry, estimates, commission without ever having a glove laid on. Always an alibi, always wriggle room, always an alternative argument, but always leaving a pug mark on any ‘important’ proposal for change. Serious students of the ‘history’ of reform and embuggerance can follow the faint, silver trail left behind by this doyen of the iron ring. Watch as the Skidmore puppet grinds away all opposition to Part 61; observe as 61 creeps slowly, unchanged into being, unaltered in any significant way; look on as the minions, with or without their ‘Oyster cards’ continue to inflict their own brand of ‘professionalism’ on those who dare to oppose them and their idiot rulings.
Nay, good Gobbledock; Skidmore will act as directed until he can slither away to enjoy the rewards of being yet another discarded plaything of the Iron ring, a hapless puppet of their grand vizier. All this will come to pass unless this entire industry, from Alan Joyce to Joe Bloggs get off their collective, self obsessed arses and speak, shout, scream as one voice - ENOUGH, this stops HERE and it stops NOW. Fat chance right.
