Fortunately, in the New South Wales Parliament we still have some honest politicians, who would not sully their name and reputation or that of their parties by succumbing to the temptations of bribery and corruption as many within both the Labor and Liberal parties have. Most here, such people as Shadow Minister and Onthebeach would instantly recognise these particular Parliamentary Members as indeed, the finest we have in New South Wales.

In alphabetical order they are;

Jan Barham MLC
Jeremy Buckingham MLC
Mehreen Faruqi MLC
John Kaye MLC
Jamie Parker MLA, Member for Balmain
David Shoebridge MLC

You can read more about these outstanding individuals, while your at it you can also read about New South Wales finest Senator.

Come March 2015 and we will be adding several new names to the list!

@Paul1405, Monday, 12 May 2014 8:06:08 AM, "I don't disrespect the elderly"

Just because you deny something it doesn't dispel what your behaviour clearly demonstrates.

What is it with the multitude of ageist insults you direct at posters when you disagree with then? What about your comments on Zimmer walking frames, nursing homes, tapioca pudding and so on? You cannot use negative stereotypes of the elderly and you are a prolific poster of them, without being prejudiced against the aged.

Yet at the same time you accuse other posters and usually unfairly and without any factual basis, of 'discrimination'.

As far as discrimination goes, your relentless negative stereotyping and abuse of the elderly makes you a superb example of the discrimination you allege against others and usually most unfairly too.

You say you stood unsuccessfully for the Greens in the recent NSW local government elections. You make a lot out of your claimed closeness with NSW Greens 'Watermelon' faction members Lee Rhiannon (Brown) and that whining lightweight Shoebridge. Your very jaundiced opinions of seniors and your hateful slurs against them must be well known by NSW Greens, yet the NSW Greens put you up for election to represent the very people you habitually dismiss, sledge and slur with your offensive ageism.

What makes you believe as you so obviously do, that such disrespect, jealousy and blaming of the elderly is acceptable and probably par for the course in NSW Greens circles? To be accepted and even chosen as a Greens candidate you must be aping jaundiced attitudes to the elderly and retired that already exist (and they do!) in the Greens.

Paul,

I do recognise your list of incompetents led by the what appears to be schizophrenic Rhiannon. This group of jabbering simians whose singular preoccupation is throwing poo at everyone and everything is quite happy to take a million dollar corporate bribe and to stop everyone from doing anything.

Another 'Liberal Porker' has rolled over and squealed at the ICAC. This time it was Ray Carter the alleged bagman for none other than top Liberal and former O'Farrell Minister Chris Hartcher. Carter was squealing loudly before the Commission, and talking big bucks, in fact he claimed to have funneled no less that $165,000 through one mob straight into Liberal coffers! More to come from that porker tomorrow, and I'm sure he wont disappoint!

On top of this bit of corruption, another Liberal high flyer in the form of Newcastle MP Tim Owen has bitten the dust. Owen announced he was quitting politics in light of allegations aired against him at the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) hearings in Sydney.

These Liberals are falling like nine pins!

Shadow, could I prevail upon you to supply a comparable list of "Honest" NSW Liberal Politicians? 'ROFFLES' TO THAT ONE!

With confessed Liberal 'bagman' Ray Carter making serious claims before the ICAC, claims such as, he was "on a roll-people were throwing money at me" and "everybody knew". Soon the duckers and weavers in the Liberal Party are going to have to come clean and tell all as to what they did know, people like Barry O'Farrell and Mike Baird can't hide forever! I say to them if you know something, and its hard to believe you don't, then now is the time to spill your guts! Fess up fellas, the people of New South Wales want the truth before March 2015.

While Tax Em' Tony, and Joe Cockey were busy kicking the crap out of the Aussie Battlers in Canberra. Here in NSW it was another day of 'shock and awe' at the Liberal Parties favorite gathering place the ICAC. the Libs didn't disappoint with Hartcher lackey and fetch it boy Tim Koelma, being warned about lying, then Koelma was shown bank statements, where thousands of dollars were regularly deposited in Liberal MP Christopher Spence account shortly after similar amounts were withdrawn from a bank account belonging to Eightbyfive, the alleged sham business at the center of the corruption inquiry. It is alledged the 2011 state election campaign of Spence was financed by money from property developers disguised as invoices to the sham business.

Can any of the 'Usual Suspects' on OLO recommend a quality establishment, preferably in easy walking distance of ICAC HQ where this bunch of Liberal shysters can get a stiff Gin & Tonic after a day's hard yabbering at the ICAC? remember a quality establishment with defiantly no riff raff. Lying is exhausting work! Shadow you'll be up for it, wont you?
