Tell the surviving perpetrator to tell the truth now about exactly why he did it, how it came to this for him and he will be kept safe and protected.

Tell the truth TODAY or we'll take him back to the bridge chain him to it and leave him there unprotected.

We'll have our answers by the end of the day, and it won't cost nothing.

You've successfully rebutted the claim that royal commissions necessarily take years, Scott, but that was never the decisive objection.

The real issue is instrument fit.

A royal commission is a blunt, disclosure-heavy tool designed for entrenched, systemic governance failure. The Bondi attack is first and foremost a criminal, coronial, and intelligence matter under NSW jurisdiction, with live investigative and security sensitivities.

Demonstrating that a commission can be fast does not demonstrate that it is appropriate, necessary, or superior to existing mechanisms already designed to handle precisely these kinds of incidents.

Back you go...

I honestly don't think they'd want a RC into Antisemitism.
Because then people like myself would be able to argue our criticisms on merit for all the world to see and hear, and our concerns would be at least somewhat validated.

Antisemitism seeks to prevent any and all criticism.
And a RC would potentially allow the hearing of, investigate and validate those criticisms as reasonable.
- Or it would be a staged whitewash.

Most things Albanese and his lap dogs say are “inaccurate”. Their only objection to a Royal Commission is what it would (hopefully WILL) say about them.

According to constitutional lawyer David Flint, the Governor General has the power to insist that the government hold a RC. But, of course, the GG is appointed.

Which brings us back to the fact that our political system is kaput.

Australia needs an ELECTED non-party president; Governor General if the need to stick to the decaying monarchy still prevails.

Flint often says, the monarchy protects us from politicians. It obviously does NOT.

"Royal Commissions are slow and disruptive with years-long timelines, overlap with court proceedings, risks to intelligence sources, and the freezing effect they can have on operational agencies." JD in an earlier thread.

"You've successfully rebutted the claim that royal commissions necessarily take years, Scott, but that was never the decisive objection."

A different opinion based upon the needs of the moment

Seriously, what can a RC give us other than what we either already know or suspect ?
It certainly won't tell us the failures of DEI which would be a major component in that system.
