One of the more singularly bizarre political episodes I can remember - lies upon lies upon lies. Amazing how he thought he could get away with it.

The report found Mr Urban lied to the public and Parliament for years about his police and military service and his education history.

Among his background details rubbished by the committee was Mr Urban's claim he served as a war crimes investigator in the Balkans.

"The Legislative Assembly finds that the Member for Darling Range, in committing the contempts above, has committed a sustained and gross contempt of Parliament, and has abused the privilege of freedom of speech," the report found.

Pretty much guarantees Darling Range will slide back to the Libs as well.
 
I lived and voted in that electorate at the last election. You expect politicians to lie, but not like that. Really you only just vote according what party the candidate represents.
