I cannot recall anything that came within cooee of the findings of the Royal Commission into the Coalition's Robodebt Scheme:
" Commissioner Catherine Holmes branded the former Coalition government's debt-raising scheme an "extraordinary saga" of "venality, incompetence and cowardice. ... "
"... "It is remarkable how little interest there seems to have been in ensuring the scheme's legality, how rushed its implementation was, how little thought was given to how it would affect welfare recipients and the lengths to which public servants were prepared to go to oblige ministers on a quest for savings." ..."

And the response from former Prime Minister Scott Morrison to the findings of the Royal Commission:
"... "I reject completely each of the findings which are critical of my involvement in authorising the scheme and are adverse to me," Mr Morrison said. ..."
