Cleaning the stables : Comments

By Mark Buckley, published 28/1/2020

Recently Senator Bridget McKenzie, a National Party member, and Deputy Leader of the party, was found by the Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) to have acted outside the spirit of a $100 million sports grant program.

THE LIBERALS ARE CURSED WITH THE NATIONALS - THE MOST CORRUPT PARTY IN AUSTRALIA!

At SteeleRedux's comment above the Wikipedia paragraph quoted comes from

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_rorts_affair

Just above the quoted paragraph is:

"The "sports rorts" affair was the name by which Australian media and political commentators came to refer to events during the second Keating ministry in late 1993 and early 1994, where the then Sports Minister, Ros Kelly, was unable to appropriately explain the distribution of federal sporting grants to marginal electorates held by the governing Australian Labor Party. It led to a textbook demonstration of individual ministerial responsibility where, on 28 February 1994, Kelly resigned from her position under consistent pressure from the Australian Democrats and the Liberal opposition about the matter. Ultimately, the controversy also led to her resignation from Parliament..."

Everyone knows the Liberals are cursed by their political dependence on the Nationals. The Nationals, at Federal and State level, are the most corrupt party in Australia.

eg. ignoring water stealing in NSW by the National's rich farmer mates. Also Barnaby Joyce's large sum For-Cash interview about his love life.

Soon Morrison will be forced to sack Senator McKenzie from Cabinet.

But one wouldn't expect McKenzie would follow Ros Kelly's principled move by resigning from Parliament!

Graham Richardsons name pops up above.
Here is a drug running scandalous crook, who has not served time in jail.
What was in those containers smuggled from the wharves into the back streets of Balmain in the dead of night, in the early seventies?
Ask the man in a shiny limo, dressed in immaculate suit and tie.

Bazz,

That’s right; they are all at it.

The Australian lunatic left class doesn’t have a president to impeach, so they get over-excited at any piddling little thing done by the government or one of its members. Last week the media was sure that McKenzie’s resignation was imminent. Her lack of compliance with their forecast has taken the wind out of their sails.

Perhaps McKenzie can bung them a sub for therapists to treat their nervous exhaustion and deep depression since their outlandish policies were rejected at the last election.

Liberal or Labor, Sport & Art should not be subsidised at all. State-sanctioned Poverty would be a far more worthy recipient of funding from State coffers !

"The Australian lunatic left class doesn’t have a president to impeach"
What ttbn said is exactly right!
Just goin' full Pelosi on a soft target.
Still butthurt over the election.

Newsflash leftards. The coalition didn't win because they're what the majority want. Your side are just too damn bat dirt crazy so it was anything other than you.

Anyway, so McKenzie was out there on the ground seeing for herself instances of where assistance could be beneficial. Isn't the usual criticism that ministers should get out and see for themselves. That they're usually too far removed from constituents. I think so.
McKenzie's out there doing what's good and right. The crazy leftards hate that. Shows 'em up too much.

It appears that the work was required because sewage was leaking out
of the building.
