For begges vedkommende - i forbindelse med det lovgivende råd, for ikke at lade nogen gennemsigtighed komme frem og lade de nationale bureaukratier arbejde som hidtil, og i forbindelse med undergravelsen af Parlamentets rettigheder ved budgettet - kommer jeg til at tænke på en filmserie, hvis andet afsnit hed "Imperiet slår igen", nemlig imperiet af nationale ministerialbureaukratier.
In both cases – as regards the Legislative Council, which is to prevent any transparency and allow the national bureaucrats to carry on working as before, and as regards undermining Parliament's rights in relation to the budget – I am reminded of a series of films, the second of which is called "The Empire Strikes Back". The empire I am thinking of is the empire of national ministerial bureaucracies.
