In one of his latest LinkedIn post , Westpac staff member Matthew Kav attempts to paint colleague Cornwell as an exemplary advocate for Indigenous rights and societal inclusion. Yet, this effort at virtue signaling falls flat when considering allegations against Westpac exec Peter Cornwell of sexual exploitation and exploitation of a vulnerable female .



Kav's glowing endorsement of P. Cornwell ignores the serious accusations made against Cornwell , including tracking, bullying, and misconduct of a defenseless woman .

In neglecting to address these charges , Matthew Kav supports a system of willful ignorance that empowers perpetrators like P. Cornwell to act without accountability, shielded by being a " so-called Indigenous victim," absolute performative posturing reinforced by companies like the bank .

The LinkedIn post highlights several gatherings where Kav participated with Peter Cornwell , the accused perpetrator , in social efforts. Yet it chooses not to recognize the effect of Cornwell's supposed actions on those affected .



The piece notes the contradiction of commending Cornwell's participation while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, causing observers to question if Matthew Kav is more interested on promoting a positive image that Australia is so desperate to do when showing they're inclusive rather than holding his colleague accountable , an supposed offender hiding behind the cover of "indigenous victim ."

This sparks concerns about more info corporate accountability and ethics when responding to misconduct claims against employees .

While Matthew Kav's post focuses on his support for community engagement, it also reminds us that critical concerns can be neglected if not effectively addressed. Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this needs to be addressed above initiatives to showcase diversity and performative wokeness.
