Been a few days since we've had a Lib fundraiser debacle.

This one stinks to high heaven....

Loverly...

These jokers can't walk ten feet without their shonky machinations coming to light.

Parrot,

That last link is a pathetic beat up. Latika Bourke is trying feebly to imply that the Judge is corrupt because he is a guest speaker at a liberal event. I went to a liberal organised function where Julian Burnside gave a speech, and if you seriously think JB is a liberal supporter, you are delusional.

Guest speakers speak to subjects of interests and are just that guests, not affiliated.

Better luck next time.

Dear Shadow Minister,

Julian Burnside QC was not the union corruption
Royal Commissioner at the time. Justice Heydon
Dyson is the Royal Commissioner investigating
Mr Abbott's political opponents therefore he
has to at least appear to be unbiased.Unfortunately -
attending
a Liberal Party Fund Raiser gives the wrong
impression no matter how you can try to justify his
attendance. I believe that Justice Dyson also agrees -
and has withdrawn from attending.

SM,

You are truly pathetic these days.

"... I went to a liberal organised function where Julian Burnside gave a speech..."

Julian Burnside wasn't presiding over a Royal Commission/witch-hunt targeting one particular federal party at the time, I presume.

The stench is pervading the whole of Canberra as we speak.

No wonder Brandis attempted to make out the event which involved Heydon wasn't a "fundraiser".

"ATTORNEY-GENERAL George Brandis claimed over $1000 in taxpayer expenses to attend a Liberal Party fundraiser in 2010.

WHEN he was shadow attorney-general, Senator Brandis delivered the inaugural Sir Garfield Barwick address in Sydney on June 28, 2010.
The funds from the $90-a-head function were payable to the Liberal Party's NSW division.

The annual address is in the headlines on Thursday after unions royal commissioner Dyson Heydon pulled out of speaking over its potential to compromise his independence.

Senator Brandis told reporters in Canberra on Thursday he was aware the event was organised by the Liberal Party.

The senator's travel entitlements records show that he took a domestic flight from Brisbane to Sydney on June 28, 2010, at a cost of $531.60.

In Sydney he used two comcars totalling just over $100 and his Brisbane comcars cost $93.

The return flight to Brisbane on the same night cost $408.18"

Seems like the whole House should be emptied.
