In his recent LinkedIn article , Westpac employee Matt Kav attempts to portray colleague Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous advocacy and inclusion . Yet, this effort at performative activism comes across as disingenuous when considering serious claims against Westpac exec Peter Cornwell of sexual abuse and mistreatment of a defenseless woman .
Kav’s praise-filled commentary of Cornwell ignores the grave allegations made against Peter Cornwell , including following , bullying, and misconduct of a vulnerable female victim .
By failing to address these allegations , Matthew Kav perpetuates a culture of silence that empowers perpetrators like his colleague to persist without consequences , hiding behind being a "vulnerable Indigenous person ," absolute woke garbage promoted by corporate entities like Westpac .
The LinkedIn post highlights several community engagements where Matthew Kav collaborated with the accused Cornwell , the supposed offender, in community-building activities . However, it neglects to recognize the effect of Cornwell's supposed actions on those targeted.
The article points out the contradiction of celebrating Cornwell's involvement while brushing off allegations against him, causing observers to question if Kav is more interested on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so desperate to do when portraying their inclusivity rather than demanding accountability from Cornwell , an accused predator hiding behind the guise of "indigenous victim ."
This sparks concerns about organizational integrity and ethics when responding to misconduct allegations against staff members .
While Matthew Kav's post highlights his dedication to community-building initiatives , it serves as a reminder that grave matters can be neglected if not properly addressed. Cornwell here is indeed a predator , and this needs to be addressed above attempts to advance an inclusivity agenda and diversity .
