Morning coffee ruined by this nonsense. Someone explain how $20m just goes missing and no one bats an eye?

Skeptical about this 'internal review'. Watch them sweep it under the rug and call it a day.

stuffed mate. Hard working public servants get blamed while the real dodgy stuff happens at the top.

Worked in immigration processing for 10 years. This isn't a 'variance', it's plain incompetence or worse. Bet someone got a nice bonus.

true. I'll believe it when I see someone actually held accountable.

they'll form a committee and talk about it for six months. Meanwhile we pay more taxes.

haha government money printer go brr. Where's the accountability? It's always 'we'll look into it' then nothing.

preach. It's always 'system error' til someone's mate gets caught.

Erica Stanford getting a 'no surprises' briefing? Too late for that, the surprise is already in the news.

lol cope harder. My student loan says otherwise.

Drew Parker2026-06-30T19:10:43.000Z

23 million... that's like half our roading budget for a year. What a joke.
