Nah, I can't believe that a minister of the Crown would be so stupid as to unquestioningly accept arguments to the effect that you guys are a bunch of recalcitrant, irresponsible, agenda-driven, selfish and safety-threatening bustards.
After all, you've got to be smart to be a minister and, by implication, you'd have to be smarter still to be an advisor to the minister, in order to tell the minister what it is the minister should be thinking.
On the other hand.....
