There are many who would doubtless agree with the underlying sentiment. I think politicians should be held directly responsible for the idiot policies they implement. They'll need personal indemnity insurance up to say $1B, funded by themselves from their overinflated salaries. Once out of office they will continue to be held to account for 15 yrs. Capital punishment for acting treacherously (treasonously) against the populace or operating under the aegis of an undeclared manifesto would probably also help focus their attention.
There are another couple of inputs that may have made Masky Mark decide to quite:
1 - Upcoming change to the Aboriginal Heritage Act, that means all Freehold land above 1100m2 now is subject to Heritage Considerations.
2 - Was there another extra marital indiscretion?
3 - Recent trip to china where he was recorded bagging out a Federal Pollie. That was a <1minute clip. He was there for a lot longer time, and was not sober, not drunk, but unusually chatty. Did he blabber about something he should not have (ie did the spooks get involved?)
4 - Upcoming Referendum, did he see a strong no vote and decide to bail before the feds force through a yes vote result, regardless of the vote itself?
Great points, thank you. Doubtless he is juggling any number of political hot potatoes, some of which he'd rather hope cool down before he stops juggling. Still he acknowledges that the COVID charade took its toll, and he has gazed into that abyss deeply. I'm hoping it may have frightened him, or at least gave him pause for thought.
Too optimistic? Maybe.
Perhaps I should have place a question mark after the title.
Deep analysis there. The answer is quite simple (for me at least).
Future wannabee despots require their ingrained psychopathic tendencies to be reined in by capital punishment & seizure of personal assets.

Evil, premeditated intentional malevolent acts, mortal sin, must eventually hollow out the person and likely, their soul?
