The whole Sawaris thing has reminded me of a village I once lived in. There was a haughty "Lady...." who, when she was dissatisfied with the lack of deference would say "don't you know who I am...?"
We used to snigger behind her back.
Even Deadly wouldn't have pulled this stunt to be honest.

As a white American. Charlize Theron is the ONLY white South African I give deference to. Are there any others? I think she's the only good white result of that entire country. Now granted Fury Road is amazing... I will NEVER trust a white South African.

β€œThe whole thing is so deferential,” David Pocock tells The Saturday Paper. β€œThe way we're treating these so-called frontier labs, basically two US companies, that I don't think any Australians really trust, and yet we treat them with such deference.” https://trib.al/LY9FYgU
