Hell hath no furies like a thirsty P7.
It is becoming more apparent, by the day, that there is a not so subtle, blatant even, miniscule directive to ‘cool’ the Estimates down. Far too much dirty washing (and laundered money) with half washed skid marks hanging out for the media to spot. It is all so very politically sensitive at the moment, all things considered.
They tried this flummery on with Skidmore – and it bloody near worked too; ‘cept he was bit too limp wristed to be believed for very long – some of the people some of the time etc.. Now we have what was a very effective RRAT committee transmogrified into soothing ‘bedtime stories’ read by Mama O’Sofullofit; at the ministers request?
I call bullshit; and, of those of that committee who did not have one single question – using the ‘Montreal’ alibi get out of goal card – last used by whispering John, now invalid: should hang their collective heads in shame.
You know; I’d wear Fawcett not turning up; I’d countenance Sterle being needed at some big deal union show; Gallacher is his own man and has much to deal with – valid no show card – there are others, from both sides of the house who could have attended the Barry O’ show. I am only left with the slim hope that, as honourable men, they wished to have no part of the ministerial charade and would want to help (if allowed) put some very serious matters aeronautical to bed. Flimsy top cover miniscule – practically non existent. I seriously (even devoutly) hope that you do not consider this last Estimates pantomime of the clowns as ‘enough’. It is a very small thumb you have jammed into a huge dam holding back a tidal wave of anger, frustration and economic hardship, not to mention the ever present spectre of prosecution on a whim.
You would be a fool deceived if you believed that the likes of Qantas and Virgin were ‘ecstatic’ or even remotely happy with the Act and Regulations as they stand. The rules are senseless, incomprehensible, designed to ensure swift, safe prosecution, with prejudice, as and when it suits. The big companies bottom line would improve overnight by at least 15% if they could cast off the leaden weight of ‘compliance’; do not believe, not for a moment, that they would not tacitly support significant change, while serving you lunch in first class.
The message is clear – reform the regulator, change the Act and get some sane, sensible rules in place – save the nation a fortune (in indigestion remedies for a start). Ministers come and go – but the beat goes on – forever. Ask DDDDDD – Darren, for he greatly offended Aunt Pru and finished up in the orchestra pit with the other Banjo players.
That’s all – yes; yes, I know where the keg is child – and I shall expedite the transaction.
