Todays revelations are pretty paltry. Gillard is guilty of defining a body that was not a trade union as not a trade union. Yikes. Can't. See. The. Illegality.
And todays revelation, courtesy of ex Lib member Barker whose life seems to be devoted to this minor incident in Gillard's past, are such a massive come down on where the issue supposedly was going four days ago. Back then Gillard was about to tumble due to hard proof that would connect to her to nothing less than fraud. Didn't happen. Still has happened. Still tumble weed. Today was just a little freddo frog conciliation prize to the loser.
What I liked most about the week was watching Abbott hide behind Bishop, whose position caved in so badly they had to bench her today and have Pyne run with the left overs to save any face. And what a job he did!
Until there is bite and not just bark, until some real evidence can be produced that actually backs up the innuendo and connects Gillard to a real crime or wrong doing, there is just nothing here to take seriously.

I find it really, really sad that people like you can't rise above your party allegiance and realise that a prime minister (it was bad enough when it was just a minister in thomson) took action that directly resulted in fraudulent activity and money laundering.
"Real evidence" -exit interview, her reference to the letter to wa commission, her comments repeatedly being discredited by documented facts. When you and your mates repeatedly say "smoking gun" - do you know how childish that sounds?
It sounds as about as childish as a leader (Trained by a UK spin doctor McTernan) to say "sleaze and bottom of barrel" more than 50 times in question time.The question I have for you is - who is really running this country? Gillard or McTernan?
Also of importance is this:
Did you realise that your cherished leader effectively wants to eradicate free speech? unless that free speech benefits the labor party that is.
Do you agree with that comrade? soviet russia's freedom of the press works really well, eh! That is the perfect model.
I quote:re the Ficklestein inquiry
"Any regulation of the media that blights the free flow of information and opinion is a form of official state censorship."
"Given that the government is contemplating taking the unprecedented step of regulating the media - which is usually done only in autocracies and Third World oppressive regimes."
