Oh goody, I have some posts left on this thread (as I have to wait five hours on the other one)

SM,

I'm not the one who spends hours and hours on this forum pushing the Liberal Party's agenda.

You're the one with fixated partiality.

The fact that runner is on your side is the thing that's "telling".

Belly,
Muck raking also is not new. If one looks back a bit one can find many parliamentarians that have been forced to resign for inappropriote conduct or misleading parliament. From both major parties. Not to mention muck raking on both sides.

e.g. The Loans affair, the sports rorts and travel rorts, just to mention a few. None of these went to court.

So it is hypocritical to claim we should let the courts decide, Parliament does not need a court to oust or force a member to resign.
Interesting to see who exercises 'right of reply' and what they say.

Seems to me Thomson has got himself in the poo as is blaming everyone except himself. Funny that few Labor members were in the House to hear their former colleague. They want to distance themselves.

Three years is far too long for an investigation, I had better put FWA as another Labor Lemon.

My understanding is that if another mobile phone is used to spoof a
target phone, the charges go to the account of the phone used to make
the phone call not to the target phones account.

If so, then the calls to the brothels must have been made by Thompson's phone.

Sim cards are programmable on blanks or other sim cards, sim cards can be used in another phone.
If someone steals your phone and puts another sim card in it it is lost for good.

Poirot,

I freely admit that I am biased towards the Liberals as you are to Labor, however, I would never post anything as fantastical as you have just done. While I might put my view point, I at least try to ensure I post facts not cobbled up innuendo. That runner can call you out should make you ashamed.

There is no FWA scandal, and none of the papers from either side will touch this drivel.

579, No, what I have been told is that you can reprogram a sim card
but there is more to it than that. It maybe that there is a serial
number check or an inaccessible area in the sim card.

I know someone who will know for certain, Ill ask him when I see him.
