Investigation launched into bullying allegations against Federal Labor MP

Federal Labor backbencher Emma Husar says she is “horrified” to learn the New South Wales ALP is investigating allegations of bullying and misconduct levelled at her by former staff.

Buzzfeed News reported the allegations late on Thursday, suggesting former staff had accused the Member for Lindsay in Sydney’s western suburbs had been responsible for verbal abuse, harassment, intimidation and demanding staff carry out personal duties for her.

Ms Husar has been a member of Federal Parliament since 2016, and she denied staff had raised issues with her before the investigation was launched in March.

“I love my job and I am incredibly passionate about representing the Lindsay community I have lived in my whole life. My community doesn’t get the air time it deserves and I am working hard to change that,” Ms Husar said in a statement.

“The assertions that have been made do not reflect who I am or how my office operates.

“My office is a professional and respectful workplace. It should not be perceived in any other way, and of course I am sorry if any person has been given reason to think otherwise.

“I am a single mum with three children, working hard and doing my best. If I have let anyone down, I apologise.”

NSW Labor said it had an independent process for assessing complaints, which would provide advice on how to respond to the allegations.

“The process is mindful to provide protection to the complainant and also procedural fairness to the subject of the complaint,” a party spokesman said.

“As such, no public comment is made during the course of any independent assessments.

“Where appropriate, public comment may be made at the conclusion of the independent process.”

Opposition Leader Bill Shorten’s office did not comment on Thursday.

Shocking disgraceful Labor conduct!!!!



Labor MP: Bullying, misconduct?
20/07/2018

...

Under investigation with no conclusion Federal Labor backbencher Emma Husar has been accused by former staff of bullying and workplace misconduct. As might be expected in today’s politics the victimhood is the first card off the deck:

“My office is a professional and respectful workplace. It should not be perceived in any other way, and of course I am sorry if any person has been given reason to think otherwise. “I am a single mum with three children, working hard and doing my best. If I have let anyone down, I apologise.”

In June 2016 Fairfax reported one of her social media posts, she wrote that,  “politicians, I want to be one, you can lie, steal, cheat and use other people’s money to go on holidays – the best job in the world”.

Nah, ya don’t say! A member of the privileged class admitting to what pollies really do? And yet she got voted in. Shows how dumb some of the electorate is. As a member of the bullying class she admits to bullying. That’s what politics is all about, honey. Now, get down on your knees in front of your chink and google masters.

The most useless bunch of politicians ever – and they have some pretty hot competition.

A single mum of 3 ?? how come I wonder, but don’t worry he’ll be right now she has her snout in the trough.

Emma Husar (born 20 April 1980) is an Australian politician. She has been the Australian Labor Party (ALP) member for the Australian House of Representatives seat of Lindsay since the 2016 federal election.
Husar ran as the ALP candidate for the seat of Penrith at the 2015 NSW election but was unsuccessful.
On 23 November 2016, in her second speech to Parliament, Husar revealed her family history of domestic violence.

In 2016 it was revealed that the Communications Electrical and Plumbing Union (CEPU) donated to Husar’s federal election campaign. The State Secretary of that union, Jim Metcher, had been charged in 2007 with 6 counts of assault against his wife and children but the charges were dismissed on medical grounds.  In her maiden speech Husar named Metcher among those people who assisted her political career. She stated “Without your support I would not be here”.

In 2016 it was also reported that Husar deleted a series of embarrassing Facebook posts dating back to 2010 including a photo of her hugging a giant condom. Among these posts Husar stated “politicians, I want to be one, you can lie, steal, cheat and use other people’s money to go on holidays – the best job in the world”.

Husar has 3 children.

Sounds like Ms Husar is living her dream and like most politicians, especially Labor ones her philosophy is ‘whatever it takes’ and in her case if she has to trample a few plebs then so be it.
I can never remember a time when politicians were EVER considered ‘pillars of the community’

Clarion Call 20/07/2018, 11:48 am
OMG. If ever you wanted to see a typical Laborite in thought, word and deed…look no further than this self-serving rat. What a shrill, nasty POS. And the horror of it all is that idiots actually vote for these cretins.

Senior state and federal Labor figures have been aware of the allegations against the Western Sydney MP for over a year but did not launch an investigation until a former staff member put pressure on NSW's head office and threatened to go public.

BuzzFeed News understands Labor leader Bill Shorten was made aware of the allegations about Husar’s behavior last year. Shorten's office denies this.

Over 200,000 words of evidence have been given by at least 20 witnesses in the Whelan investigation so far.




the silence is deafening  Grin Grin  maybe they are worn out after all the barking about the guy who  claimed he had  the wrong medal

they really got themselves worked up over that????

I can tell you what she has been accused of... by about 20 people..

being made to mind her kids.
being made to wash dishes.


One complainant said: “Working for any MP can be high pressure, and you get asked to do things that are not in your job ­description.

“But there is a certain point that crosses the line.

“To be told to do the dishes is one thing. The way you’re told, and the way it’s presented, is a different thing. Everyone had a turn at being her slave.”

Ms Husar allegedly would favour certain staff over and above others, but often fall out with them when they did not meet her expectations of “loyalty”.

“She would question their work ethic, run them down, make them rewrite a letter six or seven times beyond just correcting grammatical errors.

“She would make you correct her corrections.”


the inquiry will take 3 months.... Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

the people involved  do not wish to be named  they fear reprisals.... Sad Sad Sad Sad Sad Sad Sad


where is crook on this one?>...

read the op if you want to know more....

Meanwhile, the Libs' record is far worse. They pass laws to oppress and bully unemployed people and they incarcerate political prisoners indefinitely in offshore detention facilities away from scrutiny. They are using the law to bully the vulnerable because the Libs are immoral psychopaths.

Oh isn't it nice. Bammy maintaining a bedside vigil holding the hand of the dying Labor body.

But, when you think about it, this thuggery is not all that surprising.

The unions are known for brutality and thuggery as they monster industry with their sabotage and extortion and excessive wage demands until they force the industry to close just like Ford and Holden.

And these brutal union thugs are the very same brutal union thugs who CONTROL EVERY ASPECT of the Labor Party.

So all this Labor feminazi has done is copied the brutal thuggish tactics of her beloved union masters.

A sign of the times - once it was weak timid women who complained about male dominance - now it is the brutal thuggery of the feminazis that weak timid men are complaining about.


...
This is the REAL union controlled Labor Party that you would get if you were silly enough to vote for Labor

Labor's economic policies are being exposed to the grim scrutiny of daylight at last on their
Energy Policies

Labor are backing in renewables but when you examine the stats renewables provide f.... all on the energy grid

In reality Labor's energy policy is a fiasco. Should they gain power (pardon the pun) Electricity and Gas prices would go ballistic

Renewables don't cut it, they cannot produce the amount of energy required to run this Country. Too bad if you have a month or two when the wind doesn't blow  or dark  skies when solar gives you Jack

It is all airy fairy bulldust. Only coal and hydro can produce regular reliable energy

If Shorten wins we will literally be back in the dark ages

RB you speak such alarming TRUTH - the sort of stuff Tony Abbott says on 2GB every day.

Renewables achieve really only one thing - higher electricity prices.

And Labor's insane 50% renewable rubbish would roughly quadruple current high electricity prices and introduce blackouts and brownouts as a normal weekly occurrence whenever the wind stopped blowing - you know just like Sth Australia now.

But the Libs are cunningly playing the field here and using Tony Abbott to advertise "policy" unofficially until it is safe to formally introduce it as the Libs are now doing by supporting essential CHEAP coal power generation.

The Libs have carefully spread the word amongst the voters about how useless renewables are and how they greatly increase power prices so that supporting cheap coal is now a BIG ELECTION WINNER for the power starved voters and businesses.

Most of the power prices are being caused by the power suppliers gaming the system and only offering power when the price is high which is when the wind stops blowing.

The renewables rubbish has made the formerly rock steady totally stable coal and hydro power generation UNSTABLE so that there are wild peaks and troughs in demand and supply and now the private operators carefully sell when the price is high - just like shares and this causes wild fluctuations in the price of electricity that is making pensioners freeze to death during the globally cooled winter.

SHAME LABOR SHAME.

Oh if I could only afford to turn that heater on!!!!



The Australian cold is a bigger killer than Sweden's freeze – here's why
ADRIAN BARNETTBusiness Spectator7:22PM June 23, 2015

Most people are acutely aware of the toll the heat can take on human life, particularly since the extreme heat of Black Saturday in 2009 and the European heatwave of 2003. So it may come as a surprise that more Australians die from the cold than the heat.

A new study published in The Lancet shows 6.5% of deaths in this country are attributed to cold weather, compared with 0.5% from hot weather. Most deaths will be from cardiovascular and respiratory disease, as it’s the heart and lungs that struggle when we are outside our comfort zone.

When cold weather deaths were first noticed the theory was that it was due to people shovelling snow. Then when deaths were shown in warm countries such as Australia, the finger of blame moved onto the flu. While the winter flu does kill a lot of people, the majority of winter deaths are due to cold exposure via an increase in blood pressure.

The increase in blood pressure due to cold is relatively small for individuals, but almost everybody is exposed to the temperature and hence it becomes a large public health issue.

This is actually not a new finding. A seminal study also in the Lancet in 1997 demonstrated that cold was a major killer across Europe, and other studies have used historical records to show that cold has been a serious problem for centuries.

The new study is the first to show the size of the problem. It examined 13 countries, including the United Kingdom and Australia, and estimated that 7.3% of deaths from 1985 to 2012 were due to cold, with just 0.4% due to heat.

Of course, cold is often just the final trigger, and some deaths would have been in people with pre-existing illnesses such as heart failure or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who may not have had long to live. But these are deaths that are easily avoidable and many people would have had years to live.

Also, the study only examined deaths, but for every death there’ll be many more hospital admissions for things such as strokes and heart attacks.

Avoidable deaths

A big clue that these deaths are avoidable comes from comparing the size of the problem between countries. In Sweden, cold caused an estimated 3.9% of deaths, whereas in Australia it caused 6.5% (that’s one in 15 deaths).

How can it be that the often-freezing Sweden has fewer cold-related deaths than the mostly balmy Australia?

The answer is that the Swedes are far more prepared for cold temperatures. They have better clothes and keep their homes warm.

Temperatures inside a flimsy wooden Queenslander in winter are often below 18°C whereas Swedish homes will be a comfortable 23°C whatever the weather. Many Australian homes are just glorified tents and we expose ourselves to far colder temperatures than the Scandinavians do.

People with less money are more vulnerable as they may not be able to afford to heat their home or may live somewhere that’s harder to keep warm because it’s not well insulated. Caravans or mobile homes are particularly risky.


Keeping warm keeps our blood pressure down and also lowers other important cardiovascular risk factors. This includes blood viscosity (the thickness and stickiness of the blood, which affects its ability to flow through the vessels), cholesterol (which can build up and block the walls of the arteries) and fibrinogen (a protein produced by the liver that helps the blood clot).

We have solid evidence from high quality trials that insulating and heating homes lowers blood pressure, improves self-rated health and leads to fewer days off school and work.

Go ask Peter Beattie ( now on a junket with the NRL). Or ask Anna Bligh ( now on a junket with the banks)
They signed the gas deals at a give away price for the next 25 years.

Good to see Philly still believes in the Global Warming HOAX.

Philly can't see that even with gassy thingies running on in short supply gas the COST of power will still head skywards as it is in Sth Aust now.

Philly can't see that renewable rubbish generates very little power and it does this only intermittently so the amount of generating plant is DOUBLED to provide back up doubling the cost and doubling the cost of managing this abortion.

And the cost of gas generators large enough to equal the massive output of a coal generator is hideously expensive as it would be huge and suck in short supply gas like there was no tomorrow.

Just look at the mess SA is in with diesel genes stuck up trees and little gassy thingies stacked here there and everywhere.

If the wind drops and SA loses the link to the Vic coal fields for a week or so like Tasmania did it will be STUFFED!! Tassie has lots of big hydro genes as back up. SA has *uggar all!!!

Tony Abbott has been warning all and sundry that Australia is heading for disaster with renewable rubbish and now the Libs are listening to him and backing CHEAP totally reliable coal all the way.
