Labor unveils plan to purge Under Secretaries from Parliament
The Labor Party announced a bombshell move to have all Under Secretaries to Federal Ministers, including John Howse of Calare, declared ineligible for Parliament as Crown officers. The claim hinges on the constitutional rule barring Crown officers from sitting in Parliament. The article contrasts Bergen style long-range weather forecasting with old methods and cites a cartoon from New Zealand illustrating outdated forecasting. It notes Bergen’s meteorological system relying on high-altitude data and North Atlantic readings, claiming improved forecasts. The piece weaves in a fictional critique of weather predictions and political maneuvering around under-secretaries.
