What good is the study of ethics if it doesn't make us more ethical? It breaks down strictures and transports us to wild, upredictable places ...
Speaking of ethics and breathtaking hypocrasies, ministerial staffers are coming across interesting stories. Those very same public service and industry bosses who say they cannot award their workers pay rises, decent pay rise, this year are at the same time awarding themselves bumper pay rises and lapping up eye-watering remuneration packages. Submissions to Ministers about the hardship felt by those on 400k to 900k are almost like something from Kafka or Orwell ...

He said he could not justify a "rise of that magnitude" to his constituents who were "enduring great hardship".
