Not so fast there! Perhaps you need to brush up on your separation of powers since you want to talk about the Judicial branch with your High Court example.
"In Australia there is little separation between executive and legislative". (The third being Judicial - is the example you gave, where there is clearer separation).
So no not that hilarious at all. Unless your laughing at yourself?
Although you assumed you could, I am glad your not responsible for handing out the grades for educators. Although nice try....
Quote comes from where?
In any event, this refers to the makeup of the parliamentary government, not the judiciary and it's investigative arms. The government also funds the judicial system, yet the populace would be rightly outraged if the government interfered directly with the workings of these bodies.
The government, regardless of its political flavour, is not ASADA. The separation of powers implicitly suggests that the investigative bodies need to be separated from, and free of government influence (again, regardless of the political nuances of the government involved). Otherwise the system is flawed from the start.
