This link is from the Australian.
Gutter press at the top end.
Unlikely to ever take sides other than with Conservatives.
Yet, even with the soft hand it shows a perfect rebuttal of SM s every word.
My campaign to bring Labor/union rats to justice, is no less strong in seeking to get an investigation in to the constructed campaign of hate.
Slippers sexuality,his foul mouth, are things he has been known for for everyone of his 9 terms in office as country party or Liberal.

Belly,

You say:"Slippers sexuality,his foul mouth, are things he has been known for for everyone of his 9 terms in office as country party or Liberal."

Then why on earth did Juliar sack Jenkins and appoint Slipper. Was she so stupid as to not see this coming?

If this judgement is appealed, then this is also not the end of the story.

Yes another link, an unwelcome one fore SOME.
See it bis balanced, it is the truth.
Such links can kill threads.
And are for the most part an unwelcome intrusion on the rights of SOME.
Without links to truth SOME are free to craft words that are not true.
A truth than can not be hidden,must not be hidden is both sides of Parliament lie.
Both sides play school yard bully games.
But much more importantly, both sides have/had men best described as? grubs.
Australia deserves far better than past NSW Labor maggots, union maggots such as those in the miss named AWU scandal near 20 years ago, it use of AWU is as wrong as blameing other than Gillard if true, for those long ago acts.
Are we, as a nation best served by hiding the crimes of any side.
I think not.

Come on SM your Born To Rule Party has been caught out on this one. I have no sympathy for Slippery Pete, look at his track record, or the Labor Party,look at their track record, but your mobs grubby attempt to bring down the government with the connivance of Murdicks fish wrappers has failed. Gillard should hold an inquiry, dig into the manure heap, and see who pops out. With a bit of luck, who knows, the Mad Monk himself might be sitting on top of the pile! A good Senate Committee is what's needed, 2 Labor, 2 Liberal, 1 Greens, we'll get a majority verdict from that one, Windsor and Oakeshott can supply the rope.

Paul,

You are laughable. Firstly the rank hypocrisy in not wanting an inquiry into the AWU fraud, and then wanting an inquiry into the Ashby case where there was no crime, or legal wrong doing, only perhaps an unethical use of the legal system.

The case is on the court records, and the news articles are open to the public, so what would an inquiry try and find? The last time I checked no inquiry, judicial, senatorial, or even royal has the ability to compel Ashby to reveal any aspects of his legal advice or who even who was paying for it. Neither can they compel any members of the coalition to testify on what they knew or when. It would be the shortest inquiry in history.

Then if Ashby appeals, then any inquiry cannot begin until the case is complete.

"Firstly the rank hypocrisy in not wanting an inquiry into the AWU fraud,"
SM fine an AWU inquiry, should catch Gillard with her pants down, good one, bring it on, all for it.How's that!
The only party you can't have a muck rake is those wonderful, wonderful Greens, Lee Rhiannon terrific person, great senator, DON'T YOU AGREE!
