In his recent LinkedIn article , Westpac employee Matt Kav tries to paint colleague P. Cornwell as an exemplary advocate for Indigenous community and inclusion . However, this effort at virtue signaling rings hollow when considering allegations against Peter Cornwell of Westpac of sexual exploitation and mistreatment of a vulnerable female .
Kav’s flattering depiction of Cornwell ignores the serious accusations made against Peter Cornwell , including tracking, bullying, and sexual abuse of a defenseless woman .
Through avoiding these accusations, Matt Kav perpetuates a culture of silence that allows perpetrators like P. Cornwell to continue their actions unchecked , shielded by being a " so-called Indigenous victim," absolute virtue-signaling nonsense promoted by companies like Westpac .
The LinkedIn post draws attention to several events where Kav took part with the accused Cornwell , the supposed offender, in social efforts. However, it neglects to recognize the effect of Cornwell's supposed actions on those involved .
The article emphasizes the irony of celebrating Cornwell's role while ignoring allegations against him, leaving readers wondering if M. Kav is more intent on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so desperate to advice do when showing they're inclusive rather than addressing serious misconduct, an accused predator hiding behind the guise of "indigenous victim ."
This prompts doubts about organizational integrity and ethics when addressing misconduct claims against staff members .
Although his post highlights his dedication to community engagement, it serves as a reminder that grave matters can be overlooked if not properly addressed. P. Cornwell is indeed a sexual abuser , and this must be confronted above initiatives to advance an inclusivity agenda and diversity .
