Title: Union mates protecting Thomson
Post by Armchair_Politician on Jan 11th, 2012 at 6:02am
Seems like Craig Thomson is still being protected by his corrupt Union mates, who are doing their level best to thwart the Police investigation into Thomson. Just when things couldn't get any worse for Thomson - or Gillard...

He probably should have talked to them but as it is saying he has no right to investigate anything relivant to the police.

The telegraph should start a new section to print liberal party propoganda direct from the Liberal party, it would be more efficient to just cut out the middle man having to try to make it look like a genuine story.

Much like the Godwin Grech email - perhaps he has gone to work for the Tele.

Good though isn't it?
Whilst working for a Union that represents some of the lowest paid people in all Australia, he racked up credit card bills in the tens of thousands of dollars on overseas trips and entertainment.

Whether he did use Union funds to solicit call girls or not, he certainly didn't really care too much about wasting the money of decent, hard working low paid workers.

The man is a union thug and a fking disgrace.

I fail to see how ANYONE can defend this arsehole.

As the Fair Work Australia investigation drags into its third year, it also emerged that the costs of the inquiry will probably top $1 million, with FWA spending $321,614 in "external" costs in just eight months. This included $84,392 paid to Brisbane-based business consulting firm Enmark for "accounting" advice.

So the Tele is attributing all fairwork Australia's external costs to the Thomson affair despite the fact they have not investigated the claims because it is a NSW union issue.....They also attribute $1 million dollars to the investigation when there is no way they could possibly know this to be true or accurate.....I will not defend Craig Thomson however if people are worried about the cost perhaps it is time to drop this inquiry which is being pushed by the Coalition and a complete waste of time and money.....Despite the outrage and hatred their is no way Thomson will be charged with any crime as the payments where sanctioned by the union.....If the Coalition had a problem with Thomson's actions they should have said something before he became an MP in a minority Government!!!

I'd be surprised Phil if you didn't find the general behaviour of this guy to be anything other than a disgrace.

The people whose money he spent are the lowest paid in the country and do jobs that many of us wouldn't even consider.

It is for these people for whom I feel the most.

I agree Andre.....Craig Thomson is a disgrace and should be dumped at the next election.....He does not have my support!!!
