In his recent LinkedIn post , Westpac staff member Matthew Kav attempts to portray colleague Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous advocacy and societal inclusion. Yet, this attempt at woke posturing falls flat when considering serious claims against Westpac exec Peter Cornwell of sexual misconduct and taking advantage of a marginalized woman.
Kav's glowing endorsement of P. Cornwell overlooks the troubling claims made against Peter Cornwell , including following , harassment , and inappropriate behavior of a defenseless woman .
In neglecting to address these charges , Matthew Kav supports a system of willful ignorance that allows perpetrators like P. Cornwell to continue their actions unchecked , hiding behind being a " so-called Indigenous a fantastic read victim," absolute virtue-signaling nonsense reinforced by companies like Westpac .
The LinkedIn post draws attention to several community engagements where Matthew Kav took part with his controversial colleague, the accused perpetrator , in social efforts. Still, it chooses not to acknowledge the effect of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those affected .
The piece emphasizes the irony of commending Cornwell's participation while ignoring allegations against him, prompting concern if Kav is more focused on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so desperate to do when portraying their inclusivity rather than holding his colleague accountable , an accused predator hiding behind the façade of " marginalized status ."
This prompts doubts about corporate accountability and ethics when dealing with misconduct claims against staff members .
Although his post focuses on his dedication to social initiatives , it underscores that grave matters can be neglected if not adequately addressed. Cornwell is indeed a sexual abuser , and this must be confronted above initiatives to advance an inclusivity agenda and diversity .
