The liberal corruption is just a frequent as someone else getting a paycut



Nearly as frequent is labor incompetence and mismanagement.  Smiley Smiley Smiley

But neither are as frequent as the green's blundering cretinism, that is a fkk up to behold..


It is a brave new world we live in, for sure.

More libs having dinner with Mafia figures


Matthew Guy: IBAC won't investigate lobster dinner with alleged mafia boss

Victoria's anti-corruption watchdog has decided it will not investigate Opposition Leader Matthew Guy over his controversial lobster dinner with an alleged mafia boss.

Mr Guy referred himself to the Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission (IBAC) after it was revealed he attended a dinner with alleged mafia boss Tony Madafferi.

But IBAC said it did not have the power to investigate the dinner.

"After carefully assessing the information provided to IBAC in a letter from Mr Guy, as well as other information in the public domain, IBAC has determined the information does not fall within our jurisdiction," an IBAC statement said.

"Accordingly IBAC will not be investigating this matter on the basis of the information provided to date."

IBAC 'should be allowed' to investigate

It had been flagged that IBAC would struggle to launch any investigation as the agency requires evidence that a serious criminal offence has been committed before it can use its powers.

This constraint was introduced by the former Coalition government and some legal experts said it was designed to prevent inquiries into suspect political activity.


Many MPs and political observers did not expect IBAC to investigate Mr Guy, but warned that did not mean he was not guilty of poor political judgement.

The highlighted line is most concerning , sounds like they don't want to be held to account and are using their status as politicians to do as they please to grease their own palms , sounds like a libtards dream



it should be easier for authorities to investigate the actions of politicians, not made harder. WHy would anyone introduce a rule like that unless they had something to hide?


Very concerning  Huh

Alleged corruption in this case


The incompetence is given as is the corruption for both parties generally speaking.

Victoria’s corruption watchdog has been urged to investigate links between State Liberal leader Matthew Guy and an alleged mafia boss. The two were revealed to have shared a long evening together with others over an expensive meal.

Geoffrey Watson SC, counsel for the New South Wales anti-corruption commission, ICAC, wants Victoria's IBAC to investigate.

A quiz question has bounced around the social media this month. Readers are invited to have a shot:

Over the last 30 months, since May 2013, 17 state or federal parliamentarians have been forced to resign from the executive or their party following allegations of illegal conduct. How many were Labor Party MPs?

(a) All 17.
(b) Eight, fewer than half.
(c) Only five.
(d) One.

Answers seem to vary with exposure to mainstream news reports, particularly on the trade union royal commission. Answers (a) and (b) are most popular among consumers of newspapers, and commercial radio and TV. But sometimes (c).

The correct answer is, in fact, (d) one. Of the last 17 state or federal MPs sinbinned, 15 are Liberal Party members. One is a National and one is Labor. More on these delinquents shortly.

This is just one pointer to the reality that the party of corruption, incompetence and criminality in Australia today is the Liberal Party. At least seven other issues have emerged just this month. Each demands a full inquiry.

According to the Financial Review, transaction fees for this week’s sale of the NSW power grid were a 'massive’ $134 million:

‘Banking sources place the fees for their advisers JP Morgan and Royal Bank of Canada at about $20 million. Each. Plus a cut of the debt and equity fees. Sweet Mary! As for the government's advisers UBS and Deutsche Bank, disclosure on the NSW tender website "estimated" they would each earn $17.5 million for their work ...’

Three of these recipients – JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank and UBS – have been generous donors to the NSW Liberal Party. An inquiry must determine why so many beneficiaries reaped such huge ‘rewards’ from the public purse.

And that's just the sixth instalment in IA's regular series about Coalition corruption.

This topic has juliar shaking in its boots so hard that it resorted to spamming an entire page of threads just to knock this thread off the first page of the forum. Bad luck, we're onto you. Not long now before the ban hammer hits.

Hidden in May’s federal budget was a handout of $30 million to Rupert Murdoch’s Foxtel. Exposés of this rort by the ABC and the Guardian, and the non-response from the Turnbull Government, make this appear as straight payment for favourable coverage – or non-coverage – of the Coalition’s dismal performance.

Had the Turnbull Government genuinely wanted to boost marginal sports – the stated excuse for the transfer – it has its own TV networks with much greater reach, which would have kept all the funds in Australia.

This payment to the Murdoch empire is additional to the $882 million gifted to it in 2014, when the Abbott Government decided not to pursue an outstanding tax debt.

Since that first transfer, the Murdoch organisation has steadfastly refused to report the dramatic decline in Australia’s economy, the multiple failures in foreign affairs and, of course, the burgeoning corruption.

The second top bureaucrat in the NSW Coalition Government’s primary industries department, Gavin Hanlon, secretly offered confidential inside information to irrigation lobbyists to undermine the critical national Murray-Darling basin plan.

This was revealed in Monday’s ABC Four Corners program. Labor and the Greens from South Australia, NSW and federally have called for an urgent inquiry. The Turnbull Government has taken no action.

Victoria’s supreme court ordered three Federal Coalition ministers to appear before it last month to make submissions as to 'why they should not be referred for prosecution for contempt’. This follows public condemnation of court decisions by the three: Health Minister Greg Hunt, Assistant Treasurer Michael Sukkar and Human Services Minister Alan Tudge.

These serious violations of the Westminster principle of separating government from the judiciary went unpunished by the court after the three issued grovelling apologies. No action was taken by PM Turnbull.
The court also required The Australian's editor and a journalist to attend and explain their apparent contempt of court. This detail was barely noted by the nation's mendacious mainstream media
