Nothing could be more revolting to me than this link.
AND NO it is not off topic from England, and too long past, it reminds me the hidding such as this is currently a party policy.

Any observation of the former Secretary of a serving member, now rightly serving a gaol term in the seat of Swansea tells us we still hide our faults not fix them.
Solidarity? with who if not our own members supporters who is protecting who.

Belly,

OLO is a public site. You are a prolific poster who also commences a lot of threads, including this one. Good for you!

With respect, you cannot expect though that your opinion will rule. Although that seems to be the expectation of some of the long-term posters who presume to 'own' the site. Your opinions are subject to challenge and debate, and some gentle satire too.

What prevented union delegates and Labor Party organisers from raising suspected (and it now seems blatant) corruption during the six long years of Labor+Greens government and before? If any did take action, why didn't internal dispute procedures work, that is if any existed?

There is a parallel with the mess confronting the Catholic church, where there was knowledge of wrongdoing but it was concealed. The corruption of unions and Labor was of a different sort, but it was similarly concealed and thereby abetted by Union and Labor leaders. The public realise that.

It is however a truth I see you as a troll.
It is my view you quite deliberately go out of your way to disturb those you talk to.
I have witnessed both that, and of late a feeble effort to change your style.
I think few if any here put the boot in to my party/unions more than me, but your frothing at the mouth words contain nothing I want to read.
If here or any place you are free to say what you wish.
But you deny me the right to both ask you not to use me in your posts and not tell you ,your posts leave me with nothing but contempt for you something is badly wrong.
Know my thoughts will not change ever and too consider the host of others ignoring you, is it their fault or yours?
This is the last time I address you, please consider doing the same for me.

Belly,

It would be a wonderful world if you could tag&gag everyones who disagree with you, eh?

It is a public site and my questions are fair and reasonable.

I happen to agree with those who would have the Pope and hierarchy of the Catholic church held accountable for child abuse by its clergy. Similarly the State, government, in Australia has to be held accountable for (say) the abuse of wards of the State at the hands of its servants and people/organisations it should have been monitoring.

Private companies are held accountable for many things, an example being sexual harassment by employees, which may not even be on the work site but in social activities arranged by social clubs or between employees.

Why then is it 'trolling' to ask why Union and Labor leaders are not being held responsible for the corruption that has become endemic and often brutal? It is hypocrisy isn't it to have a different rule for Union and Labor bosses? What shouldn't they be held accountable for what happened under their watch?

My first sentence should have been,

"Belly,

It would be a wonderful world if you could tag&gag everyone who disagrees with you, eh?"

There in plan sight is the problem.
You clearly just do not understand much at all.
I can forgive that.
But you increasingly challenge the truth/facts.
YOU no other are being a troll, while I have no right to silence you I have every right to ask you to stop.
You here
In this thread throw my contempt for the Child molesters back at me.
Charged me in another with ignoring the sins of my side.
Then follow me here to troll me in the very thread that gives evidence I am not guilty as you charge.
You say things pretending an exclusive group here in OLO exist.
Then charge me with ignoring its reputation! for telling you not to troll me!
What are you doing for the site?
Who gave you the right to both give me a serve and a phantom nonexistent group?
Face it we will never see eye to eye I see that, why must you try to get the last word in?
And why have other victims of your inability to see others views too ignored you.
Because it is our right!
OTB your posts, the wording,the needless but persistent insults are in fact a mirror that shows you in detail.
You wish to be seen and heard and in posting in your style show your real life persona is unable to do that and it is harming you.
You must learn to live with it, I have no need to good by.
