The main item that emerged was, in itself, trivial: the prime minister’s travel on the Aga Khan’s private helicopter to get to the latter’s hideaway private island.
We may summarize the mandate: helicopter—it was alright to use; or helicopter—it was not alright to use. A telephone, an internet search or two, and an office assistant to make the call, and it should be done with in an afternoon
What is the point of a parliamentary office that is hesitant, tentative, and equivocal in its rulings and semi-rulings? What is the point of a parliamentary office that leaves a charge over a prime minister’s ethical reputation unsettled for a whole year? Especially on one bearing no marks of complexity in the material to be investigated?
