God forbid if Labor ever got back in, they are finished.

If Labor got back in, they would set up a strong anti-corruption commission. There would be so many Libs and Nats going there that they would need a revolving door between LibNat HQ and the Commission. Yes, the Libs and Nats would be finished.

If you imagine labour is innocent of playing this game too your understanding of Australian political history has a huge gap.

They did. Ros Kelly and she was booted for sports rorts.

She resigned only when put under severe pressure. Not much different in any way so far to the McKenzie affair. Eventually, she will go the same way as Kelly but only if Albert Squeezy can muster enough embarrassment.

Wishful thinking, showing your triumph of hope over experience. Ros Kelly QUIT POLITICS. McKenzie is unlikely to do so. All that has happened under this government to their disgraced Ministers is they have a bit of a time-out on the back bench for a year or two and then come back in a new frontbench role. Stuart Robert is an example.

You fukking clown. She resigned from the ministry in February 1994. She didn't resign from parliament intil January 1995. Not unlike McKenzie, the Auditor General complained about the allocation of funding in December 1993. It took two months of sustained pressure before her resignation. Keep making up bullshit all you like. Nobody except for the dumb as dogshit are hoodwinked by it.

Stuart Robert is an example.

Susan Lay, the multiple property owner and traveler to mate's NY parties on public money - is back on the front bench and in full cry and full pay... serve a little time out, probably picking up a little extra committee money along the way to sustain her, and then back to the front..

That's how Gladys does it - no pay rise trumpeted from the rooftops - just allocated extra money for being on this and that committee.. and boy - how those committees grow in number...

You can keep dragging this up. Ley was busted for travel expenses. Mark Dreyfus did the same for his weekend at Perisher and didn't even get a slap on the wrist. They all do it.

We'd have nobody left.

But if it were worth establishing a Federal ICAC

it would need to be conclusively established that those who funded the Federal ICAC were demonstrably independent

otherwise, a whitewash, like NSW ICAC which is tasked with investigating those who fund it

Latest:

Bridget McKenzie is expected to resign from her role as agriculture minister as early as Friday afternoon, according to reports.

Political journalists including Sky News political editor Andrew Clennell and The Australian columnist Peter van Onselen are both reporting that Ms McKenzie is expected to leave her frontbench position.

https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/leaders/bridget-mckenzie-expected-to-resign...

Why the delay? She should have fallen on her sword immediately...

Waiting for a late press release on Friday night, common tactic used to hope all the press have gone away for the weekend!
