I won't side with this or the other in this ever-stupid class-war.

What I observe is that, if you, "Good blokes" have such hate for the TATs, and vice-versa, then why are you still living together as the same "nation"?

Surely the land is big enough to divide, so that nobody is forced to live under people they so hate!

with 90% of children now out of detention and no drownings you would think the 'compassionate'ones would be happy. Also Sarah forgets to mention that Triggs either saw guns that did not exist or made it up. Role model? You have to be kidding.

Gillian Triggs is an honourable person that made serious blunder.

Her purpose as head of the AHRC was to investigate human rights issues in a rational and non partisan manner, and thus provide reports that can be used as the foundation of government policies.

It is difficult for any rational person to see the deliberate delay of the report into detainees to prevent embarrassment to the labor government before an election as anything but a partisan action, and unless Triggs is an idiot, this perception is entirely predictable. The result is that both Triggs and the report are tainted, and like a court judgement where the judge has been found to have a conflict of interest, the integrity of report has been seriously damaged.

While Triggs is getting kudos for standing up to Morrison, the reality is that she has spent the commission's time and resources in producing a study/report that is unable to influence policy and can be ignored much like the labor/green showpiece senate inquiries.

Triggs is a dishonourable Lefty who waited till her maaates were sacked by the electorate before commencing a shallow inquisition over the remnants of a problem almost totally Fixed by the new government.

No complaints, she is heartless; as her maaates were happily drowning many with a statement of "Tragedies happen. Accidents happen".

Wringing ones hands, Pontius like while being complicit does not wash away the blood. Lady Macbeth killed only one.

An interesting case of log and splinter in this piece.

Notice how the TATS who've commented prove the author's case? They've demonstrated each of the characteristics she describes in spades.
Great article
