Can't see how it could hurt and could help.

It is a principle of Westminster government that the minister carries the responsibility, and resigns in such situations. That happened in Japan and/or China after a major collision.

these days it is a principle more honoured in the breach than the observance.

Not sure what the minister had to do with it, like the rest of us he was under the impression that QR management were competent and doing their jobs.

The RBTU have kicked a huge own goal as well, they have been milking the overtime cash cow for a long time now and it's finally come to light how they restricted recruitment of drivers to ensure there would always be extra overtime available. Well that has come back to haunt the org and now the whole of Brisbane knows/thinks it's because of the union that their trains have been cancelled for the next two years.
