One Hour Between Words and Deed Hypocrisy

 

Karen Williams is the mayor of Redland City, on the southeast coast of Queensland, Australia.

On June 23, 2022 she held a video meeting calling for harsher penalties for drunk driving. The meeting included families of victims of drunk driving accidents.

About a hour later, she crashed her car and the police investigating the accident determined that she was intoxicated. Williams admitted to drinking several glasses of wine before driving.

Actually, this isn't pure hypocrisy because she didn't say, "don't drink and drive" but merely said that the country suffers from it. Still the time between the words and the deed is so close that it makes a spectacular example.
