I admire idealism. I wish the world still had mechanisms for ensuring that qualified people took these key jobs rather than party plants. But in the real world we still have turds like Barnaby Joyce donating millions to his mates company in the Cayman islands to buy back water on floodplains that only see rain every 50-100 years and not facing consequences because "I can't be expected to read everything that comes across my desk for approval" or something along those lines which he said to ICAC. FFS he should have been locked out of Australian politics for having dual citizenship before then like the Greens and Labour pollies who got kicked out for the same thing.Yes all the parachuting into these Boards has been detailed by independent media, especially prior to the last election, where hundreds of unqualified party boffins promoted.
No I meant truly independent (or at least properly qualified) ...not party appointments.
Surely the WHOLE system has not been corrupted ...and unbiased, professionals can be found to administer in the public's favour and best practice.
And an ICAC with teeth to keep the bastards honest.
It's depressing the low standards accepted as the norm these days.
Anyway, this is just going to piss me off talking about the bullshit low standards we're forced to accept.
