Unless security measures are credible, they will never be taken seriously. Australia is an absolute joke. Look at that idiot Anderson - he has absolutely no idea. The shambles that is Sydney has demonstrated that. Smoke and mirrors security only - "screen the pilots, that'll show'em we're serious." And - when asked about the customs report, he blustered and says "oh, that's the way it was 18 months ago, much better now", then changes tune and says "oh, I took immediate action when advised about the report.... I FORWARDED IT TO THE PRIME MINISTER...." Right, that'll fix everything!

I'm quietly left wondering if in the back of Anderson's mind is a sneaky little bit of retribution towards pilots for being instrumental in getting Aust airspace safe again last year. I don't really think so - I just think he's incompetent.

The whole thing is a total farce.
