I think this was very poor timing from Dutton as this sort of picking winners and damning Public Servants as "the government's potential picks to replace Philip Lowe as Reserve Bank governor would not be able to operate independently because of their established relationships with government."

is this why the Lib Gov sacked so many executive Public Servants back in '13/14? because Abbott thought they were all Lab supporters?

the Public Service has always maintained a degree of neutrality, according to several PSs that I've known over several decades, and according to the PS rules of conduct. from my reckoning these people would be just the sort that would do very well in the RBA.

also strange that Dutton identified the Chair position made decisions exclusive of other inputs, such as the other Board members.

is Dutton losing the plot?

Sportsbet has the coalition as a near certainty at the minute. 12:1 odds if you think the ALP might win.

Dutton never found the plot to be able to lose it, but Fadden is Gold Coast territory, so i don't think it matters what he does in this instance.
