Hmm, for a bit of fun i’m gona do a list of names that i think are pretty uncompromised that you mightn’t have thought of, I’ll try to think of people across the political spectrum, see what you think,
- Andrew Pocock
- Jacqui Lambie
- Chris Bowen
- Jim Chalmers
- Jordan Steele John
- Ed Husic
- Julian Leeser
- Andrew Wilkie
- Helen Haines
- Anne Aly
- David Shoebridge
- Kate Chaney
- Parrick Gorman
- Andrew Hastie
- James Patterson
Theres probably others. As I say, i might not agree with much of what these people say, but i generally listen when they speak because they’re coming in with some fairly consistent positions where you can see their own ideologies at work instead of being led there by others. But I haven’t read that book, so maybe i’m misinterpreting what is caught in the definitional use of the term compromised.
I suppose those in leadership positions i’m giving a somewhat looser reign, namely Jim Chalmers, because leadership over such a complicated entity as Treasurer of a Nation I think is inherently compromising having to weigh up so many competing interests.
