Oh fuck, this is too funny. My wife and I watched the 4 Corners piece last night, and I said that the dumb cunt will probably be made to fall on his sword for being such an inept tool in the interview.

For context, the journo was presenting some observations from Rod Sims, the former head of the ACCC. This dickhead's response was to state that Sims was retired. Which he did... in 2022. Journo's response was on point, about how that didn't invalidate Sims' understanding of consumer law and rights. At which point, Mr Dumbfuck Fuckface got up and walked away.

Funniest shit I've seen in a while!

The sad thing? Because he "voluntarily" retired, I'm fairly certain this incapable moron will still get all his fucking shares and other benefits, as part of his contract.

Fuck Colesworth.

He got paid $7mil last year, his shares etc are irrelevant unfortunately.
