   The whole article is a cryptic crossword, which departments are involved, is there a common theme, are they connected, how was this picked up? What happened to journalists asking pertinent questions rather than parroting an official line?

   If there are 50 public servants accused of child sexual abuse in Tasmania, imagine the figure for the whole country. Now imagine the figure over a period of decades. But the alleged perpetrators have a spokesman:

   Community and Public Sector Union assistant secretary Tom Lynch said a push for transparency around the suspensions could be partly caused by how long it was taking for investigations to be completed.

   Note that “transparency” has been transformed: it no longer means naming the overseers and alleged culprits; it means giving them a fair go.

   “When you’ve got somebody who has serious allegations against them and it takes you 18 months to conduct an investigation and to provide them with due process, then I’d say your system is broken.

   “We must be able to deliver a speedier outcome for the people who are making the allegations. And for the people against whom those allegations are being made.”

   The CPSU, of course, is an affiliate and financial contributor to the Labor Party.

   Indeed. I’m looking at you, Office of the Special Investigator.

   It will be all teachers, youth justice and politicians.

   Entropy – don’t be silly – they will all be Catholic priests (incl Cardinals) and Catholic Brothers.
   Also Nuns – do we accuse Nuns these days? If not, why not…

   They are clearly not the unprotected class.

   Well, there is this group of Australian nuns called Little Company of Mary that built and ran a hospital called Calvary and the Canberra communist dictators took it off them and ripped down the crosses in every room and all other Christian symbolism…

   Does that count?

   Well, I’d be more impressed if Dan XiMan had sent a squad of his VikStasi up to pepper spray the Nuns, followed by vigorous beatings and volleys of rubber bullets.

   The worst part of what the Canberra communist filth did to the Little Company of Mary wasn’t taking the hospital away but taking away the palliative care hospice.

   A ready made Euthanasia site with an adjoining hospital to drop off organs for transplanting!

    I would laugh and laugh if the Catholics set up a new hospital just outside the ACT boundary. Say along the federal highway, or in Queenbeyan.
