Sink the Slipper

[mottrain]

Peter Slipper,James Ashby every single person involved was members of Liberal/National Party

Poor choice by Juliar.

 

[poller]

Poor choice by Juliar.

Nope

Slipper as an independent was clean , it was a poor choice by Abbott and the coalition to back slipper in 2010

 

[poller]

The text and harassment and travel rorts was while Slipper and Ashby still members of Abbott team

 

[mottrain]

Nope

So I guess you think the same about Craig Thompson then?

thomson was not a member of parliament of the times of his deeds

so its completely different

ROFL it is just as bad, if not more damning that he was even allowed to run in the first place for Labor.

The coalition knew about thomson before the 2007 election, why didn't they do anything when he ran in 2007 , why did they wait til 2010 ?

There is no defence for the coalition

Trying to blame someone who has no control over events such as Abbott or the Liberal Party pretty much shows desperate spin and lies to try and save face for the Labor Party. Labor's responsible for selecting their members and their actions just like the Liberals in NSW. No one is responsible other than the Labor party and Juliar.

Why is the coalition trying to blame labor for slipper ?

Pyne did say one truthful thing today
,If slipper stayed with the coalition , this would not have happen,

they would not have got Ashby to do this political plot

So therefore are you saying it is Labor's fault?

Nope its the coalition's fault

For keeping slipper and doing a dirty on him , reason why slipper took the speaker's seat as an LNP member then resign to be an independent

 

[JoondalupJ]

Pyne is one of the best politicians this country has ever seen. In the sense that our system rewards the most cunning tiprats for being cunning tiprats, Pyne is one of the most cunning tiprats and deserves everything coming his way.

Aah and it will.

 

[JoondalupJ]

What did they do?

Its about covering up, not actually what they did, although they did do things and said they didn't. Brough have a look at the seat he holds , whose was it?

 

[JoondalupJ]

Aside from all that, do you reckon Pyne is OK?

Ha haa. OK for booting in the backside til nose bleeds.

 

[JoondalupJ]

So no different to juliar.

Yes , she didn't actually lie to the people, she got forced to change her mind , or not get in by the minor cross benches.. Where as Abbott 3 years later lied like a dog , as does his career politicians that feed at the trough.

 

[RUNVS]

Surely this has to be investigated by ICAC. It can't possibly not be investigated.

 

[Gough]

Whose ICAC? There is no federal one.

 

[RUNVS]

Whose ICAC? There is no federal one.

So what is to stop federal politicians acting corruptly?

 

[scon]

Their integrity and respect for the taxpayer.

 

[The Coup]

So what is to stop federal politicians acting corruptly?

Well Brian Loughnane is federal and he's about to get dragged into NSW's.

Fish rots at the head and all that.

A federal one would be like the crash of '29. Good thing Parliament house doesn't have many floors

You can overdo the trivial, high horse stuff. Labour had little choice and Tone would have done exactly the same-only less skilfully, and with less charm.

 

[RUNVS]

I would genuinely love to have a commission with very strong powers go through Federal politics with a magnifying glass and bring down every single corrupt politician in both houses. It won't happen though as neither party want to be scrutinised like that.

this was Expected

Slipper is going to use Abbott's serial offences as evidence

Former federal parliamentary speaker Peter Slipper will call evidence about Prime Minister Tony Abbott's use of travel allowances in an appeal against his conviction for dishonesty, court documents have revealed.

Slipper is due to be sentenced later this month, after being found guilty in July of misusing his Cabcharge allowances to visit Canberra wineries in 2010 before he was speaker.

But he has already lodged an appeal and has signalled he will use press reports about Mr Abbott's repayment of travel costs after he attended former MP Sophie Mirabella's wedding in 2006.

Last year the Prime Minister repaid more than $1,000 in taxpayer-funded travel expenses he claimed when he attended the wedding.

 

[pjcrows]

They're all corrupt liars.
