Yes I am a procurement manager and I have advised on and managed large procurements, but I’ve done more due diligence on 80k worth of specialist technology than they did in this

I have sat in quite a few tender panels for funding. Always followed the rules. It’s not difficult!
-
Yeah if you have been on a tender panel you know that’s it not hard and the rules are pretty straightforward but this was just handing half a bil to friends, I think if Dastiari had to resign then Trumble must too

He definitely should resign! Imagine if one of us did even a fraction of this!!

In Victoria can be sacked for spending $50 the wrong way, after spectacular corruption cases it’s clamped down like you wouldn’t believe, but it was needed it public money

Absolutely. Imagine if a Labor PM, had gave an unsolicited grant of nearly 1/2 billion $, with no transparent process, to a priv’t organisation. The Murdoch press in particular, would be apoplectic, and rightly calling for full disclosure. But this is the LNP, so hardly a peep!

If this massive grant goes through, every cent better be accounted for and allocated with complete transparency. If not it will be siphoned off to LNP mates that I know. Corruption at high levels.
