I'm reasonably pro good governance and the need to levy a burden to keep the roads built and services on, but this is just criminal. That individual ministers and staffers that gave evidence showing they knew it was illegal, but did it anyway, with no consequences, shows how broken the system is.

If you wish to behave in this way in public office, in the name of populist ideology, instead of good governance, we should be able to "lift the veil" and go for the jugular.
