Personally I would have rather seed a few people who say words like “seed” when they mean ’saw’, “aksed” when they mean ‘asked’, “free’ when they mean ‘three’, and ones who use both this ‘ and this ” interchangeably, lol.

But seriously, I do think of that summit as more of a bow to the cult of personality, in that if you were famous, and a little bit vociferous about your own desire to ‘change the world’ then you got a guernsey, because obviously celebrities are smarter than the rest of us.

I would have liked to have seen a few random selections of nurses, plumbers, schoolteachers, taxi drivers, small business owners (grudgingly), and even a Collingwood supporter just to actually get some viewpoints of people who don’t already have a somewhat privileged way through life.

Even a few unemployed people wouldn’t have hurt - they do have opinions and are Australian too - surely the only criteria which should have been necessary.
