Paul,

You showed a link to the green's policy on donation, yet they are the ones that first broke it in the most spectacular fashion, accepting a donation from Wotif of nearly $1m. Did they respectfully decline the donation? not a chance, as the greens are the biggest hypocrites.

As for donations for developmental projects, the greens are unlikely to receive donations because:
1 They oppose everything except sunshine and fluffy kittens,
2 They have never been in any position to do anything useful,
3 They are supremely incompetent.

As for the increase in approvals since the libs got in, the Labor green alliance approved very few projects, even after consultation, EPA tick off, local approval, etc. All that was missing was final approval, and for years the labor green alliance simply did nothing and wasted $billions. All the libs are doing is clearing the backlog of labor/green incompetence.

Shadow, your feeble attempt to some how implicate the Greens in corruption is pathetic in the extreme. So the new slant on Liberal Party developer corruption is as you put it "clearing the backlog" yeah and lining their own pockets at the same time.

As for donations for developmental projects, the greens are unlikely to receive donations because: (they don't line their own pockets like some in the Liberal Labor Parties)
1 They oppose everything except sunshine and fluffy kittens, (The Liberal would approve a Plutonium Plant in Pitt Street if the money was right)
2 They have never been in any position to do anything useful, (except expose Liberal Labor corruption)
3 They are supremely incompetent. (Unlike O'Farrell, Obeid, Hartcher etc etc)

Shadow you said you "donate" to the Liberal Party?
Are you a developer, does your "donation" go into a 'slush fund', or directly into a Liberal MP's pocket? Is your "donation" big enough to let you talk to Joe Cockey?

And just to finish, What about Ficarra, claimed she was "busy" on the day evidence pointed to her soliciting a "donation" from a property developer, busy with her pet poodle Fefe, getting its hair done, and a manicure down at the saloon. or some such nonsense. The lawyer at the tribunal at one point had to tell her to shut up about her dog and stop telling porkies!

Shadow I will understand if you do not reply, this is rather a no contest!

Shadow, I need a favour of you, if I may, as I believe you are in a spelinded position to grant such.

As you may be aware, every year I award the 'Rex Jackson Memory Trophy' to the most corrupt poly in the Labor Party, Eddie Obeid has taken out the award for the past 3 years running, despite a bumper field of worthy candidates. We hold the presentation in D Division at Long Bay Penitentiary. Always well attended by Labor luminaries and would be's if they could be's. Until his departure i was ably assisted with this herculean task by x-formumite Belly, who would supply the names of a couple of dozen Labor lags, and along with no small input from the lawyers down at the ICAC, I would determine a winner.
Now, this is where you come in, I was thinking many in the Liberal Party would be jealous with Labor getting all that attention. So I propose, with your assistance to instigate the 'Robin Askin Memorial Shield' for the most corrupt Liberal for the proceeding year. If you could supply the list of worthy nominees, please limit it to no more than 50. Along with the assistance of the ICAC we'll come up with a well deserved winner! I was thinking we should hold the presentation in A Block at Silver Water Correctional Facility, there will be plenty to drink, as Barry has an abundant supply of 59' Grange for us to slurp on, free, sorry at $3k a bottle, we'll take it out of the slush fund. I was going to get Joe Cockey as guest speaker, but Joe wan't $22K for the gig, not worth it, besides who would want to listen to Joe's dribble, even if it was free, could you find out what Tax 'Em Tony would charge for his dribble, please?

Looking forward to your assistance with this.
p/s Ppossibly you could pen a Liberal Party song for the occasion. Maybe a variation on the following.

Didn't The Age report that Graeme Wood, worth $372 million and a director of Wotif allegedly gave $1.6 million to the Greens for election advertising? He was also reported as saying that he wasn't the only rich person giving big $$ to the Greens.

Maybe Paul1405 could check with his 'Watermelon' Greens faction including Lee Rhiannon (Brown) and the serially whining featherweight Shoebridge and confirm.

While Paul1405 is at it he might confirm if there is truth in the persistent rumour of NSW Greens links with a certain overseas billionaire currency speculator who nearly sent the Bank of England broke with his currency deals.

The Greens are shameless in putting their begging bowl out to young lowly paid students where Greens' 'environment' policies are just fronts for the pink social agenda of trendy urban professionals and there are large donations rolling in from wealthy benefactors. A thin green skin to conceal the red mass within.

Australians rightly get very concerned where any direct or indirect links with wealthy overseas interests may not always be divulged. That applies to all political parties and certainly to the 'one world government' Greens who may not always have the best interests of young Aussie couples at heart.

OTB,

Isn't it amusing that the more you remind Paul of the Green's corruption, the more strident he gets accusing everyone else.

Paul,

Perhaps you could put forward the 20 most corrupt Green MPs, or 50 if you include councillors. I was going to suggest you put forward competent MPs, but then I realised that it would be a no show.

Just when I've kicked the walking stick. out from under Shadow on this, who should come charging in, mounter on his 'Zimmer' frame, none other that me olde sparing (the very lightweight) partner Beach!
A few ground rules Beach, before we start.

1 No you can't invoke the demented wisdom of that silly old Miss Marple character of yours and her stupid references to the Hibernian society, or the blind society, or what ever society she and you prattle on about.

2 NO, no, no, I'm not going to contribute to any slush fund run by the 'Poodle Paperer', Liberal Marie Ficarra. I'll leave that to Shadow.

3 I'm not going to chip in to your "Elect Jim Saleam Campaign' no matter how many developers you have already signed up.

Anyway Beach, all is not lost for you and Shadow! You two are in for a real treat! I do believe they are serving 'tapioca pudding' tonight at the nursing home, yum! You and Shadow are in for a real yummy treat there, and you wont even have to take your teeth out for that one. Remember as Nursey says, "Always take your medication", and "lights out, 7 o'clock SHARP!"
Good night, and god bless.
