What Thompson has come up with, has put a different slant on investigations. Presumably he will name names when he addresses parliament. His story may be incredible enough to be true. He always said it was not him.
Every one is entitled to a day in court, after being charged of course.

If you had ever had any personal dealings with this union, in the same time period, you just might find Mr Thomson's explanation more plausible.

I HAVE had dealings with this union in this time period, and I can tell you that the corruption does NOT stop at the top.

you can be sure that those defending Mr Thomsons right to remain in Parliament are the same that insisted that Peter Hollingsworth step down as GG. The hypocrisy is amazing.

579,

You are a rare find, you must be just about the last person in the country that believes that.

P.S. I have some shares in the Sydney Harbour bridge you might be interested in.

I see that Juliar wants to talk of a code of conduct, especially as so many Labor MPs are breaking Labor's first rule (you shall not be caught)

"Former state Labor MP Angela D'Amore has lost a judicial review of a finding of corruption against her by the Independent Commission Against Corruption."

Runner,

Regarding Hollingsworth, a yet-to-be-proven allegation is not the same as a demonstrable and unchallenged fact.

If and when Thompson is proven to be guilty he will get what he deserves, as he should

Thomson is guilty, the FWA report made it clear.

Hollingsworth simply didn't take strong enough action against his subordinates, while Thomson stole from low paying employees.

Hollingsworth, was forced to resign, Thomson continues to receive financial support from the ALP.
