Who carries the can, when the wheels come off? That is the question.

No matter what the 'job' there is always – always, someone to answer to. The bigger the job, the greater the penalty for cock-up. The larger the crew, the more opinions there are to deal with. The larger the money pit, the more shovels there are, willing to help dig it out. IMO Dutton has reached for the deal in a high stakes game; which is only sensible.

It will be 'interesting to watch – perhaps he may influence other ministers to 'own' their portfolio and pay attention to the matters for which they are responsible. Can you imagine a minister for Transport rolling up his sleeves, booting the hangers on out of the place and setting out to 'sort' out the tangles? How good would that be? Alas we have the WWWWW W (we added waste of oxygen) being blindly and willingly led about the place – the prize winning beast at the show – next stop the slaughter house.

Good on Dutton (like him or not) for taking the reigns; should be more of it. At least it makes pinning 'the tale' on the donkey easy.

Toot toot.
