It has recently been revealed that Mr “transparent” government, Oz PM, Malcolm Turnbull, is using a private email server, a la Hillary Clinton, to communicate with colleagues, journos and ‘others,’ who knows their identities and the content of those emails, hackers of course? But security is not the issue here it is the usual lying and searing hypocrisy of conservative politicians.
Aussies remember all too well that former conservative PM Tony ‘reviled’ Abbott also promised transparency then immediately closed the doors on his activities regarding boat people and other refugees, including implementing laws that prevent aid workers and medicos discussing social health and medical issues of refugees in detention with colleagues and the media; it seems that whatever a conservative polly says they mean the opposite. Stand up Mr Turnbull and explain yourself or allow our agencies and other bodies the right to keep you honest, the WORLD has seen how Hillary conveniently scrubbed her email server hard drive clean and prevented her government from accessing (damning?) evidence in relation to the Benghazi fiasco, notwithstanding that her obvious dishonesty has cost her dearly in the running for president!
It is clear that Mr Turnbull values his privacy as indeed all humans do, so if it is good enough for our leaders it is good enough for the masses – either repeal unnecessary pan-surveillance and meta-data laws (regulators are clearly overwhelmed) or become accessible to bona fide inquiries and monitoring including FOI compliance, or pay the same price as your lying, hypocritical predecessor – it really is that simple Mal. You should be aware that the only factor keeping you safe in your coveted position is the unpopularity of opposition leader Bill Shorten, who couldn’t win a chicken raffle regardless of how sound his policies may or may not be.
So here we go again, Australia, when will they ever learn that Aussies unlike Americans are socially informed and deplore American style surveillance, hypocrisy and criminal activity from political leaders, or would you prefer to learn the obvious the hard way, Mr Turnbull? I suggest you look up the word “INTEGRITY” before it’s too late. Repeating Abbott’s mistakes is not only political suicide it is the height of stupidity, Mr lawyer Turnbull.
In conclusion, a short note to Labor: The Libs are now STUCK with Turnbull and you are left with open options to win the next election, I recall the infamous words of Labor power broker Richo, “whatever it takes” and note how successful Labor was in those days. A man (too soon for another woman) of the PEOPLE is clearly required to romp home, smarmy, lying, arrogant, narcissistic ELITIST Turnbull is very easy meat, though defeating him is beyond Shorten. You have been told, utilise your options, the sooner the better.
