The role Angus Campbell is playing in this government's refusal to supply basic information as to its conduct is a disgrace:
Asked where the 153 asylum seekers were, Campbell said: “In regard to
that issue and the venture that you speak of, that is a matter under
consideration by the high court so it would be inappropriate for me to
comment further.”...
Campbell was later questioned about the capabilities of vessels
involved in asylum-seeker operations. Asked by the Greens senator Sarah
Hanson-Young what the capacity of the Ocean Protector was, he said:
“Again I don’t have the answer to that at hand and if you wish me to
take it on notice I will refer that to the Australian Customs and Border
Protection Service.”
Hanson-Young then asked: “And how many people would the Triton hold?”
Campbell: “I’ll have to refer that to the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service.”

totally agree. He comes across as a pretentious prat.
