With so much publicity Bronnie is getting with the 'Choppergate' scandal, she is in demand. A Melbourne ALP branch Clifton Hill, has invited Bronnie to attend their fundraiser. Taking Bronnie at her word "I speak to community groups, I'll speak to Liberal groups, I'll even speak to Labor groups". The Labor mob have invited the old gal to their next shin dig. The official invite reads as follows;

"We do not normally charge for these events but upon reading that you are available for fundraisers we thought we would make our next event a fundraiser.
"The event can take place at a time and date of your choosing but the sooner the better."

Given Bronnie is a raving monarchist, the subject for her talk will be 'What role will the Westminster system play in an Australian Republic?'"

Don't hold your breath fellas, Bronnie will be a no show for this one, even if you do supply the helicopter!

Here is an interesting article which explains
why - Mrs Bishop is truly the world's
worst Speaker:

http://independentaustralia.net/politics/politics-display/Bronwyn-bishop-the-worlds-worst-speaker,7107

Barry Everingham, senior correspondent writes:

"One of the great traditions inherited by the Australian
House of Representatives from Britain's House of Commons
has been the rule of the impartiality of the Speaker.
Indeed, in the Commons the Speaker remains "in situ" even
after the elections, where he or she may not remain a member
of the ruling party."

Everingham states that "in the main, our Speakers have been
good, a few bad, but none, with only two who broke the rule:
both ALP Members - Leo McLeay in the Whitlam years and way
back to the character Sol Rosvear, who began as Speaker
under Curtin."

Today, we're told things are different.

"The current Speaker is Bronwyn Bishop - an absolute disgrace
whose behaviour in the Chair has brough the Parliament into
disrepute."

Everingham in preparing this story tells us he interviewed
diplomats from three Commonwealth Countries whose Parliaments
work on the Westminster System - Canada, New Zealand and,
of course - the UK.

Everingham says, "I asked if the behaviour of Bishop would
be tolerated in their Parliaments and the answer was a
resounding "NO!"

He explains, "One of them told me of his experience accompanying
a visiting MP from his country to "Question Time," in Canberra.
The MP was just incredulous and said had he been told of
her behaviour he wouldn't have believed it - but seeing her in
full flight really shocked him."

Bishop as Everingham says, "is of course a disciple of Tony
Abbott's - she admires his thuggery and take no prisoners
attitude."

"Bishop today told Parliament that outside the Chamber, she
can do anything she likes, as long as it is legal..."

The website is worth a read for more of Mrs Bishop's antics.
As for whether she has broken the law, I guess we
shall have to wait and see

Fox, "As for whether she has broken the law, I guess we shall have to wait and see"

Says smug Fox, not yet satiated for blood, whose Kangaroo Court has damned, convicted and sentenced Bronwyn Bishop from the start.

runner,

Bronwyn Bishop
<Bronwyn Bishop says she never wants to see the Liberal Party embrace affirmative action as it would entrench women as ''permanent second-class citizens''.
"They didn't choose me then but I didn't go away and whinge about it either. I just worked hard so they chose me subsequently."> [SMH, 2013]

The Sisterhood is unrelentingly savage, beastly, to any woman who is not on the leftist Emily's List for preferential treatment as one of their 'networking'(sic) mates. Such arrogance that they make their mateship obvious.

Should the public take it on faith that the women Labor and Greens politicians who are Emily's Listers would declare any use of their parliamentary entitlements or other application of public funds or assets where their membership or participation as 'Listers' is concerned?
