The ritual humiliation of the consulting firm bosses by the Senate finance committee resumed on Tuesday in Canberra. Best of all, they’re doing it to themselves.

Remember, the Australian government is carrying $550 billion of net debt. The Department of Parliamentary Services should be selling tickets to these hearings. If they encased the visitors’ gallery in glass, so instead of observing in silence we could eat choc tops and LOL freely, who wouldn’t pay $100 for that?!
