I didn't much care for the comments of Mark Dreyfus, Federal Atorney-General about the allegations being of concern and that he hopes the victims will come forward and tell the Royal Commission about the threats. He's the Attorney-General for Gawd's sake, who's just been informed of a conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. He should be directing the police to conduct an investigation, not waiting for terrified victims to do all the work.
In view of this I think it now likely that the Royal Commission is an exercise in whitewashing.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
