If you want a pic of old Aussie Kojak, pick up reference book and look under "S" for Sell-out.

Well done to the LEGAL TEAM. Gawd, the Greens had SFA to do with this legal challenge besides being vocal in their support of it. |

Well done to the LEGAL TEAM. Gawd, the Garrett had SFA to do with this legal challenge besides him and Rudd initiating the legal challenge. They had nothing whatsoever to do with the actual legal work done in the court. |

Garret was a huge disappointment to people like myself. We had hoped that a vocal activist might put the cat among the pigeons, but he wasn't just a sell-out; he was an abject failure in that regard. And he was a pretty lousy minister in general as well.
Perhaps future activists might consider adding competence and experience to their CV before diving into the fray. |

Thats rubbish. Activists do bugger all except make noise. To make any real change, you need to join the system and work piece, by small piece, to make change. Anyone disappointed by Garrett expecting him to be an activists once in government is a fool. |

This is such a stupid point of view. Plenty of people die every year on government worksites or under government contracts. Plenty get killed by wars our governments get led into. As the fire data shows, 4 may have died, 40 were probably saved. Either way, inconsequential compared to other deaths. |

They have already been arrested, charged & probably have served their time. I know & agree, corporate crime does pay rather handsomely, murder someone through negligence & only receive fines or short minimum security sentences, you get longer for killing someone in a car accident. |

WELL, you could say that with a HOST of things But a LEGAL TEAM can only act on - and is only as GOOD as - the BRIEF it has been given ... at the time Garrett COMMENCED these proceedings, the Abbott opposition had a policy of NOT going down this path - yet taunted the Rudd Government to DO so DOUBTLESS, the Abbott and the Hunt will claim the glory for this result on "the home front" - and quietly apologise to "our best friend" - JAPAN - as being the work of that nasty Rudd Government |

You need to need to work within the system while not becoming a part of the system's values. He was a disappointment because he achieved next to nothing. That massive-ego Rudd was probably the biggest problem, but it remains true that Garrett achieved very, very little for the environment and there are many coalition Environment ministers who have done far more which is not a great statement in his support. |

Which coalition env ministers have achieved.. anything for the environment ? Hunt is actively working against it. I would go so far as to say the Rudd/Gillard government was the single most environmentally friendly government we have ever had, and althrough Garrett was only a bit player and that, who knows what influence he had behind the scenes. |
