@TheRealPBarry 4 corners and Porter and Tudge goes way beyond Sexual stuff. What the program failed to highlight was that these people are the people who make the Laws which govern us. They are the people who had something to do with Robodebt and I remember a Judge recently
said something about Criminal behaviour in a court case by one of them as well. Tudge is interested in Education, It's his political thrust, Porter's is the Law. Both of them are in Senior positions in the government of the day and making decisions each day by regulation or
making laws in the parliament of Australia...about things which govern Australians lives. Laws are essentially about how the Population behaves in society generally. The norms of Society. We have certain accepted Social norms and also laws which we must obey, upon penalty of
becoming estranged from society or some other criminal or civil penalty. These are the people who call Unionists in the CFMMEU thugs, for trying to protect their members from Death and injury on building sites. These are the people who love to use the word Illegal. When I was
a Police Constable many years ago i learned that behaviour such as we heard about during Porter's University days (Of which there were many witnesses) was generally against the good conduct of any citizen. Drunkenness is generally frowned upon by Society as is Adultery when in
the state of matrimony. What the 4 Corners show did was shine a light on Character and behaviour which wasn't only Sexual, but also went to the character of the people who represent us in the parliament and in High office. The way that the program spoke to me was thus. Would I
trust a man who was married (and who had taken solemn vows in a church of other venue) to be the person who made Education policy for my children? Would i trust a man to represent me in the Parliament of Australia who's behaviour had been questioned by a Judge? On the other hand
would i trust a man who was a drunk and lauded getting drunk enough to vomit when he was attending a Law School at university? Would I trust a man who was an alleged drunk and Mysogynist and a lawyer and holding the office of the first law officer of the land and who had just
released an exposure draft of public Integrity legislation for discussion? After all this thinking I wonder that people think that the behaviour of these two men is private and shouldn't be shone a light on. The Question the 4 Corners program raised for me is. "are these two men
fit and proper persons to represent the views of the general population of Australia where they were elected and are they fit and proper people to hold the high offices that they hold? Their sexual goings on are their own business as individuals, but that coupled with their
general behaviour as high office bearers is of course in the public interest. In my opinion they are not fit to hold their positions and the failure of the Prime Minister to sack them also calls his judgement into account.
