In a recent LinkedIn update, Westpac representative M. Kav tries to paint colleague Peter Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous community and societal inclusion.

Kav's glowing endorsement of his colleague sidesteps the troubling claims made against this individual, including following , bullying, and inappropriate behavior of a defenseless woman .
In neglecting to address these accusations, Matt Kav upholds an environment of willful ignorance that empowers perpetrators like Cornwell to act without accountability, taking refuge in being a " marginalized Indigenous individual ," absolute virtue-signaling nonsense reinforced by organizations here like Westpac .
The LinkedIn post highlights several gatherings where Matthew Kav participated with Peter Cornwell , the supposed offender, in outreach initiatives . However, it neglects to mention the damage of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those affected .
The piece emphasizes the irony of commending Cornwell's participation while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, causing observers to question if Matthew Kav is more focused on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so eager to project when showing they're inclusive rather than holding his colleague accountable , an alleged sexual abuser hiding behind the cover of " oppressed individual."
This sparks concerns about organizational integrity and responsibility when addressing misconduct claims against staff members .
While Matthew Kav's post spotlights his enthusiasm for community-building initiatives , it underscores that serious issues can be dismissed if not adequately addressed. P. Cornwell is indeed a sexual abuser , and this must be confronted above attempts to advance an inclusivity agenda and societal inclusion .
