Shadow,

Your personal opinion of The Greens is of no consequence in this matter. The reality is members of The Liberal Party, or more accurately The Corruption Party, were found to have acted corruptly in relation to the laws of New South Wales. End of story. Say what you like, but these Liberals had to resign, or be sacked, because of their behavior. Not one or two, but ten or more, and that makes the corruption systemic in the view of a reasonable person. Possibly these bods could engage you as their 'Legal Council' should they wish to challenge such findings in a higher court.
The people of New South Wales are satisfied with the performance of the ICAC, and what it has achieved, despite the failure of both the Labor and Liberal Parties to fully support the Commission, and I wonder why? Let the people be the judge!

Fortunately, it is a long time since anyone in the Corruption party, led by Crusty Minge, has been considered reasonable. I would suggest that you look up the definition of systemic. That Crusty and her cohort of minions managed to launder its bribes, does not mean that it is any less corrupt. The election result giving the Labor/green coalition a hiding showed that the left whingers are considered more corrupt than the conservative side of politics.

I gather from your silence with respect to the expansion of ICAC's powers, that you have finally grasped how nonsensical your previous comments were.

Shadow,

Systemic, that's the word that best describes corruption in the NSW Liberal Party. It was not isolated to a couple of individuals but to ten or more. These people believe they are born to rule and therefore are above the law. No wonder that the corruption party approves 98% of developments, given the amount of illegal donations coming their way from developers!

I had a bit of a chuckle with this "the corruption of Obeid, Macdonald etc was pretty much open knowledge at the time which any decent police investigation would have rooted out." It made me think of a former Liberal Primer Robin Askin, one of the most corrupt politicians this state has ever seen, Askin was never investigated by police as so many of them were part of that very corruption which existed in this state.. No rooting out there my friend, none at all. LOL.

Paul,

It is a pity for you that most people don't care what you think. By your definition, the corruption in the Greens is systemic. PS, it is still illegal to take large sums from the unions or $1.5m bribes.

Good to see that you have given up the desire to re write the constitution.

Shadow, can I take it that by definition "most people" care about your cackling and crowing on this issue, or any issue for that matter. Unlike you I do not crave, or have that desire for acceptance by "most people". To give you an illusionary feeling of comfort, and to satisfy your need and desire to belong, I'll make the following statement;

"I Paul1405 want it to be known that MOST PEOPLE on this forum, and in the wider universe, from Alabama to Zanzibar agree with everything Shadow Minister has to say on everything! AND never agree or care about what I have to say even my kids and the family dog!

Shadow I hope that makes you feel better. As I advised before. a Bex, a cup of tea, and a good lie down. It will work wonders for you.

Back on the subject. Even though up to 50 findings of corruption against individuals dating back to 2005 could be overturned by the recent High Court decision, none of those 50 relate to Liberal and Labor politicians, the corruption findings against them are rock solid!
'Bugsy' Baird from the Liberal mob is to meet with ICAC Commissioner Meagan Latham this week. With public opinion on this matter the way it is, not wanting to see the corrupt get off, the introduction of retrospective legislation cannot be ruled out.

Paul,

You really did get a bug up your Rs.

I take it that you really do care what people think of you and the systemically corrupt greens. Don't worry, I'm sure that someone in Mongolia will hear your desperate cries for attention.

Unfortunately, once they see that you and most greens chirp loudest about the things they are clueless about, they will probably give up caring too.
