Excellent post Centaurus! Just goes to show it is really the un-elected bureaucrats that hold and maintain the axis (balance) of power…

I have, as yet to work the why; any luck at your end miniscule?

“There are in fact two things, science and opinion; the former begets knowledge, the later ignorance.”
Upon reflection In the lead up to Albo very proudly releasing his beloved Labor government’s GWEP (Great White Elephant Paper
), Truss as the then Opposition shadow miniscule was very vocal and opinionated on the Rudd government and the , wet behind the ears

Truss ridicules Albanese over aviation review

Shadow minister for transport Warren Truss has labelled his counterpart a know-nothing minister who has no grasp of the challenges facing the transport industry.
Truss ridiculed Minister for Transport Anthony Albanese as lacking the will to make tough decisions after he announced a policy review into aviation, which adds to the 73 other reviews launched by the Rudd Government since it came to office in November.
Albanese today launched an aviation issues paper which highlights significant issues affecting the industry, such as skills shortages, regulatory reform and climate change.
The aim, according to Albanese, is to create a national aviation policy. The industry is being asked to submit its views to Albanese by September.
Truss, however, sees the launch as another indication of the Government being content to steal Coalition ideas, sub-contract work out to Labor mates and other government bodies or launch reviews.
"After 11 years in opposition, you would have thought Labor might have known what it was going to do when it was elected to Government," Truss says.
"The sad truth is the Government and its very green new minister, Anthony Albanese, have no idea about transport policy and infrastructure."
Truss says the late Howard Government had implemented a number of aviation reviews while in office, which laid the groundwork for progress to be made.
"This latest aviation inquiry is yet another example of Rudd Labor governing by review and avoiding what we pay them to do, which is to make decisions," Truss says.
Dear Miniscule…
‘proof is always in the pudding,’ this could be your ultimate swansong where you could be remembered as the Miniscule who was prepared to put his cohunes on the line and cut through the bureaucratic red tape; dice up the trough swillers & iron ring geriatrics…
Dear Miniscule…now is your chance to prove that your government truly are the infrastructure & transport gurus...or I suggest (as the PM recently said in Parliament)…“
get out of the way!”
Dear Miniscule…“Mayday..Mayday..Mayday” is fast approaching …
TICK TOCK!
