The strategy of the opposition of forcing a royal commission or enquiry is a long standing strategy of distracting the government from the task of governing the country.

There are occasions when demanding an enquiry are legitimate- but in politics everything is complicated.

Well a lot more arguing the pros & cons, but not much light.
You are discussing what they are arguing about, not why they are arguing.

The fact is a major digital revolution is peeping over the horizon
and many do not like it.

so right Canem

royal commission into child abuse - good ammo to bash catholics but still in epidemic proportions among Indigenous and other communities

royal commission into trade unions - found to be totally corrupt along with Bill Shorten as everyone knows but still have him as opposition leader

royal commission into kids detention - no positive conclusion except to pour more funds into greedy ngo groups

royal commission into banks - a lot of horror stories however I doubt whether much will change when all over. If highly paid Regulators did job would of been no need

royal commission into aged abuse - will uncover horror stories but will never change human nature especially when you employ foreigners with different values because Aussie don't want to or won't do such crappy jobs

royal commissions don't actually achieve much

Today's Spectator editorial suggests that the task for new the new MD and Chair (the PM has nominated a woman for the latter) is to get rid of the “entrenched leftwing political bias among key decision-makers, producers and presenters” and also prepare the ABC to eventually stand on its own two feet without money from taxpayers.

Sounds good to me.

Private universities , private banks , private national TV with private funding from unions..no, sorry sorry... international corporations I meant to say , ICBC , China Construction, JPMorgan & Chase.

Gday try to be nice, well done! was it your carer or your self who thought up your sign in tag?
A life of being rejected because of a nasty personality needed reigning in, *what a shame even that failed*
ABC is not going to be beaten by Murdocks Prime Minister even his own party will not fall in line
