May I suggest a moratorium on Shadow Minister's threads until he is capable of presenting a more balanced perspective?

Har! Har! Har! As if!

I agree, Belly, while I have my misgivings over many recent Labor decisions, the constant casting of Labor as the font of all evil by Shadow Minister is ridiculous, tiresome and outmoded.

My concerns about Labor is they have not offered a viable alternative to the Libs, if anything they are a "shadow" of the Libs (pun intended)

Labor is also the biggest recipient of gambling donations, and takes heavily from liquor as well, and so are far from having clean hands.

Labor's biggest donor is John Curtin house ltd, which is a front company that raises money and gives it to the labor party under one disclosed amount. The source of that amount is not required to be disclosed and is effectively "laundered".

Even if drug dealers donated money via this "front" it would be hidden from the public.

SM,

Give it a rest. Look to your own party's secret dealings. One-sided
finger-pointing is becoming a bit predictable and boring. Come up with something new and constructive for a change - please.

OUG have a feeling it may be found on ABC web site will look .
Thanks again for you know what.
It is a truism Shadow Minister that your threads are fly paper.
Seemingly intent on getting so silly they bring big numbers of posts.
Your avoidance, at any cost, of truth is amusing.
I honestly in you see any one of 5 or six conservatives but nonmore than Christopher Pyne and July Bishop, both would pinch there mums milk money and say anything.
For that matter Browyn Bishop too.
Enjoy your flights of fantasy I am.

Lexi,

I have been perfectly up front about the coalition accepting money from all and sundry. My point is exactly that as far as accepting donations, the labor party and coalition are no different. The coalition hasn't got a million union members pockets that they can dip into either on polling day.

It is the Labor party that is pretending to be different and is sanctimonious about it.
