Yet there’s an uncomfortable reality that’s sitting under the surface: if the legal framework is already adequate, then why did these failures occurs?

[…] what exactly is the point of ASIO and the Australian Federal Police if it can’t transform the information they hold on these people that are a danger to society, into prevention and protections for the community?

[The] Royal Commission should look at leadership within these security agencies, what their priorities are, and what’s happening to all the massive increases in funding that both ASIO and the Australian Federal Police always receive…

C’est une attraction chaque printemps aux jardins botaniques royaux de Londres, les Kew Gardens : à sa floraison, l’arum titan dégage une odeur puissante de viande en décomposition pour attirer les pollinisateurs, qui lui vaut d’être surnommée “fleur cadavre”.
