"As a Queens Counsel".
Odd thing to say once, but twice? Is he sick of being compared to a latte maker or something?
Shame to see the CCC's reputation bring tarnished lately. I've met some truly great people at their coal face.

I knew Lofty (MacSporran) at the bar. He was a good counsel. Straight as a gun barrel. He got himself into trouble through an error of judgement.
He was right to stand down in the circumstances. But anyone who demonises him is talking out their arse.
He may be good counsel but he had fuck all idea about corruption in Qld. Spent 90% of the commission's resources on organised crime when the total income of organised crime in a year is less than 3 weeks dodgy procurements from government and council. The public service has gone feral on his watch and some of the processes he oversaw, like organisations self-investigating serious corruption matters, has seen Queensland devolve back to the moonlight state.
I do not believe he was impartial. He may be very competent but being competent and not impartial is not a good mix.
see you in the star chamber fella
I've been before the commission 3 times and been fine.
Has it though?
Yes - the level of corruption, particularly the boat loads of cash sent from William st to the big 4 is incredible.
