Heydon is now seen as a captive of the Liberal Party, and should resign! He would have been well aware that his attendance at this fundraising event would assists the Liberal Party financially. There is no way any so called "findings" this bloke makes against the labour movement can be seen as anything other than biased and tainted in the extreme. Abbott wasting $80 million of taxpayers money.
No judge should ever be caught during the trial, dining with the prosecutors! Makes it a Kangaroo Court instead of a Royal Commission, which many have suspected from the start.

Parrot,

You appear more senile and pathetic every post.

I agree the stench of Labor / union corruption is overwhelming Canberra. The Union / organised crime connections and rampant extortion.

Burke's vast expenditure of nearly $1.4m on his office, using tens of $1000s to fly his mistress overseas and his use of taxpayers money to attend ALP fundraisers.

Let alone Shorten's unresolved accusation of rape, his selling of workers rights for money to sponsor his political ambitions, and his obsequious obedience to the unions.

SM,

"I agree the stench of Labor / union corruption is overwhelming Canberra. The Union / organised crime connections and rampant extortion."

Lol!

Chrissy Pyne tried that one in QT today...he had a good old rant and splutter to celebrate his 48th birthday.

And none of it made the slightest difference to the controversy.

According to Shadow, the verdict on the labour movement has already been decided. Has Abbott wrote the judgment for Heydon to deliver in his kangaroo court? What would be the topic of conversation at this Liberal Party soiree and money grab that Heydon was going to front? 'How bad are those unions' or some similar topic. Any "judgement" this bloke delivers should be taken with a grain of salt, totally compromised, totally bias.
The snouts are well and truly in the trough on this one. Counsel assisting Jeremy Stoljar, is getting paid $3.3 million for his efforts. Stoljar is not the only barrister taking home a big pay packet.An analysis of government contracts published on the AusTender website shows at least four other Sydney-based silks have been contracted.Michael Elliott is getting $1.3 million, Richard Scruby; $960,000, Sarah McNaughton $866,000 and Fiona Roughley; $831,000. The biggest winner is possibly law firm Minter Ellison, Attorney-General George Brandis' former employer. The firm was originally awarded a $2 million contract but that figure quickly grew to about $8 million. It has now ballooned to $17 million, yes 17 million dollars!. Senator Brandis has previously said he had no influence on the decision to award the contract to his mates. He says it was the choice of the former head of his department, Roger Wilkins. The decision came after a "limited tender procurement" and after the firm was judged suitable by Stoljar and Commissioner Dyson Heydon, how much is he being paid?
The royal commission began in March 2014 and is expected to conclude in December this year. All told it is expected to cost taxpayers $60 million to $80 million. All simply to satisfy an Abbott witch hunt, and try and save his failing government.

"I need to adjourn for an important problem that has just arisen."
RC Dyson Heydon.

And what was that problem that cause Heydon to call a halt to his kangaroo court? The bloke had just received the news that he had been caught out supporting the Liberal Party. Heydon has tried unsuccessfully to hose down his blatant bias, claiming he didn't know that he would be helping to raise money for the Liberals, yet an advertising flyer which has been circulating since April clearly stated that funds raised from Haydon's Sir Garfield Barwick (a former Liberal government minister and sycophant of party founder Menzies) address would support the Liberal Party.
There is only two options here, either Abbott sacks Heydon, or Heydon resigns!

Paul,

Thanks for showing yet again how beholden the Pedogreens are to the unions.

Desperate attempt to link Heydon to the libs because he offered to give a speech at a function.
