Distopian News:
The man appointed by the Govt to 'fix' the SAS, David Irvine, is the same man who ordered agents to bug the East Timor Cabinet Rooms for Woodside's benefit.
David Irvine was exactly the sort of person Witness K was complaining had taken over Aust Security Services: unethical, ambitious and who conflated 'Australia's National Security' with 'The Govt National Security'.
Like Alexander Downer, David Irvine thinks it's 'absolutely fine that the National Security' services act for Corporate Interests, and that the are one in the same thing.
Someone, I cant see that any recommendations by David Irvine will solve any problems. Rogue soldiers motivated by revenge is one thing, but by cynical corporate greed, and executive slease a whole lot more dangerous.
Will an SAS, with all the technology, training, and unfettered legal powers,e
styled by David Irvine be an organisation we really want set lose on our children?
