senate asic pif canberra gossip, page-2

Splitpin,

have a heart and leave these folk to their blissful slumber.
I could not wake them with a call for a copy of ASIC letter, nor before that for support on PIF asset sale freeze, nor before that for copies of threatening letters from our tormentors, etc.

PIF member fronting the Bench at the Inquiry Star Chamber will hardly stir the pot; or will it?

As Plato (c 427-347 BC) councelled us some millenia ago in his series of dialogues ‘The Laws 797’:

"The need for scrutineers

Well then, what will be the proper policy for us to adapt on the subject of Scrutineers? So far we simply have a corps of officials, some appointed for a single year by the luck of the draw, others chosen from a preliminary slate of selected candidates to serve for several years. What if one of them proves so inadequate to the dignity and weight of his office that he gets ‘out of the true’ and does something crooked? Who will be capable of making a man like that go straight again?"

Inquiry Committee members may in their astute wisdom connect this infant kernel of Democracy with this Canberran Investigation into MFS/PIF scrutineer that wasn't.
Good Luck!

Cheers, things get chirpy from now on
