'Sunday Night' just proved how sadly we are lacking real journalism these days. All we got tonight was a soft 'questioning' so Barnaby (and Vikki) can try and play the victim
. I feel sorry for his ex-wife and kids who have to go through what Barnaby did in public all over again. Was the $150k paid for your sob story all worth it, eh Barnaby?
The public's anger had/has nothing to do with the baby or even that there was an affair (as long as it was not on the taxpayers' time).
The questions people wanted asked by Ch7 but weren't:
1) How did Campion gain employment in public positions she lacked the qualifications for under Barnaby's watch?
2) After those on the inside learnt of the affair, how can Barnaby justify (at least one) taxpayer funded position being created for her in another department when it wasn't required?
3) How does Barnaby justify the use of taxpayer funds (i.e. OS trips) on a staffer who became his partner?
4) Barnaby, how do you not see your own two-faced hypocrisy in publicly claiming to be a "social conservative" and preaching "family values" to oppose SSM while privately having an extramarital affair and a child "out of wedlock"?
