Labor's integrity inferno continues to burn

Peter Coaldrake said the importance of an independent Public Service is paramount.

Mr Coaldrake also pointed out that the tone is set from the top.

One of Steven Miles' first acts is to appoint former Labor MP Mike Kaiser as the Director-General of the Department of?Premier and Cabinet - the head of the apolitical Public Service.

Mike Kaiser is a former Labor MP.

Mike Kaiser is a former State Secretary of the Australian Labor Party.

Mike Kaiser is a self confessed vote rorter.

To put someone with these blatant ties to Labor and a history of vote rorting is a sick joke and is a terrible tone to set for public servants.?

This appointment, in the shadows of an election year,?will have a chilling effect on our democracy.?

If this appointment goes ahead, a former Labor MP,?Labor State Secretary and Labor Campaign Director will be in charge of the resourcing of the Office of the Leader of the Opposition?and maintain final approval over much of the messaging of the Opposition.

If this appointment goes ahead it will confirm?Steven Miles has no interest in fixing the integrity issues of this tired third term Labor government.

Steven Miles is the unelected Premier because of a secret backroom deal with union bosses and now is attempting to politicise the public service.?
