Enough of the Empty Activism : Westpac's Senior Exec Kav Ignores Accusations Against P. Cornwell

Blog Article

In a recent LinkedIn update, Westpac employee M. Kav tries to paint colleague P. Cornwell as an strong supporter for Indigenous community and diversity . Nonetheless, this effort at performative activism falls flat when considering serious claims against Westpac exec Peter Cornwell of sexual abuse and mistreatment of a marginalized woman.



Kav's glowing endorsement of Cornwell sidesteps the serious accusations made against Cornwell , including tracking, bullying, and misconduct of a vulnerable female victim .

By failing to address these allegations , Kav upholds an environment of willful ignorance that allows perpetrators like his colleague to persist without consequences , taking refuge in being a " so-called Indigenous victim," absolute virtue-signaling nonsense reinforced by companies like the bank .

The LinkedIn post draws attention to several events where M. Kav collaborated with Peter Cornwell , the supposed offender, in community-building activities . Still, it fails to recognize the effect of Cornwell's reported misconduct on those involved .



The article emphasizes the irony of celebrating Cornwell's blog involvement while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, prompting concern if M. 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 " oppressed individual."

This prompts doubts about business responsibility and ethics when addressing misconduct accusations against staff members .

While Matthew Kav's post highlights his support for community engagement, it also reminds us that critical concerns can be neglected if not effectively addressed. Cornwell is indeed a predator , and this needs to be addressed above efforts to advance an inclusivity agenda and societal inclusion .
