CV and mad panic behaviour

[Baggers]

So with the final day of questions in the inquiry.
You would think at least one of the following 2 statements must be true.
The Victorian government so incompetent that they run the most critical program in the states recent history with absolutely no insistence on accountability, record keeping etc?
The Victorian government lying?

Btw there is every chance if the government was a listed business and have this lack of detail for an inquiry, they would face being de-registered, receive huge fine and/or face potential criminal charges.

And this is all just on ONE element, the hotel bungling.
Interesting that they are not being forced to release some of their "secret data" around their modelling and decision making, data that they insisted was in the public interest to not release.

Government without accountability and transparency... Is this Australia or Belarus?
This inquiry to me proved that the government is about protecting it's own position above all else.

About sums it up.

I've just finished reading as much as I could about this fiasco. I was hoping that accountability would surface, be analyzed as to how it happened, and then strategies put in place so it could never, ever, happen again.

This is like an episode of Yes, Minister... without the humour.

What Dan has to realise, and quickly, that this episode of buck-passing, denial, assumptions and plain old incompetence will only erode at least, destroy at worst, community trust in him and his government.

If this was a local council, the state government would sack the lot of them.

Well, Dan, you can accept this bullsh1t non-result and give your opponents massive ammunition or you can get to the truth, quickly... someone is accountable and even if a 'committee/collective decision' on employing private security firms, there would still be in the Minutes a record of who Proposed, who Seconded and who would Action the decision... if not - then God help us all!

As for 'believing' that NSW would have been the priority for ADF help... sorry, Dan - bullsh1t. If you were fair dinkum about protecting your people, your state, you would have been on the dogger to ScoMo insisting on troops... asap. You're the leader and it is expected of you to be pro-active and insistent on looking after your state, your people in the very best way possible... not making limp assumptions.
