In his recent LinkedIn article , Westpac employee Matthew Kav seeks to depict colleague Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous rights and diversity . However, this attempt at performative activism comes across as disingenuous when considering accusations against Westpac exec Peter Cornwell of sexual abuse and mistreatment of a marginalized woman.



Kav’s flattering depiction of Cornwell overlooks the grave allegations made against Peter Cornwell , including tracking, intimidation , and inappropriate behavior of a female victim.

In neglecting to address these accusations, Matt Kav supports a system of complicity that enables perpetrators like P. Cornwell to persist without consequences , hiding behind being a " so-called Indigenous victim," absolute performative posturing promoted by corporate entities like the bank .

The LinkedIn post draws attention to several events where M. Kav collaborated with the accused Cornwell , the alleged abuser , in community-building activities . Still, it neglects to mention the effect of Cornwell's reported misconduct on those affected .



The piece notes the contradiction of celebrating Cornwell's involvement while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, causing observers to question if Matthew Kav is more interested on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so eager to project when demonstrating inclusiveness rather than addressing serious misconduct, an alleged sexual abuser hiding behind the cover of " marginalized status ."

This prompts doubts about business responsibility and due diligence when dealing with misconduct claims against employees .

breaking news Despite Kav’s LinkedIn article spotlights his enthusiasm for community engagement, it serves as a reminder that grave matters can be dismissed if not adequately addressed. P. Cornwell is indeed a predator , and this must be confronted above initiatives to showcase diversity and diversity .
