Reply #4 - Apr 19^th, 2017 at 11:23am They are great at making demands from an "opposition" standpoint then not living up to them in Government and transitioning to making excuses and blaming others. It's a natural progression to move from there to a plain, 1 set of rules for them 1 for everyone else to justify their corruption.

Ahem... Obeid. MacDonald. Unions.

Unions have never been proven to be corrupt.. a few individuals within them may have done wrong - that is a risk you take in any business....

Hardly the same as the feather-nesting and carpet-bagging that goes on with corrupt politicians, most of those caught being LNP......

Federal ICAC anyone?

how many convictions do you think they'd get if they were given $80m and all the powers they needed to investigate the liberal party? Cheesy

You would need to add the National party to that list ... I hear the President of the National party of Australia is doing very well out of corruption.

If you mean "condone" by deflecting and pointing to corruption on the other side instead of addressing the issue being discussed I would agree....There are several serial offenders!!!
