Karls Declarations and Statements
29/8/2022 v.01
I apologise for my typos, however, I submit that recipients have a responsibility to extract meaning from communications, typos and unfamiliar and poor expression not withstanding.
If they do not, they may be effectively discriminating against those from different cultural backgrounds for whom English is not their first language. And against people from different age and gender backgrounds who use the language differently.
They may also miss critical information!
Some of you may remember the Hon Tim Holding, MP, Minister for Police in one of the Bracks' Ministries.
Some of you may also remember the data leaks from the LEAP system. Holding claimed he knew nothing about it, which it would seem was true. However, he SHOULD known about it have because he had been sent a memo that he didn’t read because of typos
v.01 19/8/2022
Just to let you know that I love making submissions like these, however, I do regard them as my IP. I offer them to be used by the recipient as they see fit, however, I reserve the right to use them myself in my own personal campaigns on a wide variety of issues. Of course, I accept that should I do this, recipients may specifically criticise, reject or otherwise comment on any personal submissions I may make.
I will (and always do) make clear that my own comments are representing no-one else, and are separate from any formal roles I may hold, as I always have done over almost 50 years.
