I find it truly alarming that a minister can continue to not only ignore all the facts presented by a Senate standing committee about his three aviation ‘safety’ agencies but continue to accept the ‘all’s well’ advice from those agencies; against well considered advice, backed by pure fact from his own Senators.  

The Senators are not spinning yarns – they are in there, working hard and earning their well deserved keep, constantly exposing the reefs, whirlpools and storms the ship of government must sail through.  No Sir, they are dealing with fact, testimony, evidence and the arrogant, deceitful ways the ‘untouchables’ work.

Perhaps Truss has forgotten his roots; country folk depend much more on ‘regional’ and charter aircraft than the cities ever will, his approach at the moment is set to deprive his own grass roots voters of these much needed services.  Gods help him if Smith and Xenophon hook up and decide to make AIR SAFETY and EFFICIENCY an electoral issue for folk on the land and country towns.  It will be the start of the demise of the NATS.

Bollocks says Wazza; -  No, not so; says I, talk to the folk you represent; or FFS wake up.

Your front line team is deceitful, untrustworthy and worst of all, unforgivably stone motherless useless.

Enough prose – I’m off to the houseboat for a couple of cold ones; could be a long session.
