The Silence of the Left?
There is no silence.
The personal attacks on Ms Credlin were made by Clive Palmer
who refused to apologise for them. He stand alone on this
issue. The Leader
of the Opposition - Bill Shorten has
described Palmer's attack on Ms Credlin as, "Unwarranted and
Wrong." And, his Deputy, Tanya Plebersek has also made it
quite clear that of course Mr Palmer can debate policy but
he should not debate staff members in doing so.
Ms Plebersek said, "The Abbott Government's Paid Parental
Leave Scheme is bad policy - (ask any Liberal or National MP),
it's extravagant and unfair, and its on that basis my
colleagues and I have made the case against it - on the policy,
not the personal."
Clive Palmer is on his own in this matter, and he has been
criticised for his remarks by all sides of politics.
Accusing the so called "Left" in this matter just doesn't
wash.
