There's a new name for all this type of bs.
It's mostly reserved for the ANTIFA crowd and their willful destruction of property to whoever doesn't agree with their views.

'Leftwing Terrorism.'
The media may as well be complicit in it because it more or less supports the same left wing agendas.
"Move along nothing to see here, and if there is then you must believe the story we tell you."

Tell me any coincidence other foreigners like Yassmin Abdel-Magied also were finalists in Australian of the Year?

Why can't a True Blue Aussie be recognised for anything?
Not politically correct and no agenda to serve.

Our country has been stolen from us by leftwing terrorists, and is now totally rotten down to the core.

Paul,

You also said "However the boofheads may well have known in advance what they were doing was wrong, and the possible ramifications of such action. Yet as a test of the judiciary's resolve they went ahead and acted in defiance. Now the courts must act, unlike these guys, with impartiality. " Which means that you have already decided their guilt.

Secondly your statement "Its adverse findings of corrupt behavior by politicians both Labor and Liberal is well documented." is completely false. Continuing to repeat this in spite of knowing it is a lie makes you look as dodgy as a Labor minister.

It is not very often that I agree with Paul but on this matter I do, in that all posters on this thread are 'jumping the gun' as the thread refers to an inquiry that is still underway.

It seems that allegations have been made about a person by the SMH and now by the ICAC, but the inquiry is ongoing and, as yet, no court proceedings have been instigated.

I am prepared to wait until any charges are finalized in court before commenting. It would not be the first time that allegations by a newspaper have been found to be incorrect.

My only knowledge of the accused person is that she has came out strongly against the practice of underage marriage and has publicly said she knows of many that have taken place. I acknowledge her for that and expect that alone could give cause for some in Sydney's South West to hold a grudge against her. As the person in charge of the Immigrant Womens Medical Centre, she was in a position to have knowledge of underage marriages.

Banjo,

She either has those qualifications or not.

Regarding official expenditure for example, any here who have ever had a government credit card or even the lowly fuel card would be aware of the conditions for use and the reconciliation.

Dear Armchair Critic,

I'm not as pessimistic as you are about our country.

I believe that voters do get it right in the end.
And will do so again at the next election.

And as for "True-Blue Aussies" being recognised?

Here's just a small list of Australians of The Year:

2012 - Geoffrey Rush

2013 - Ita Buttrose

2014 - Adam Goodes

2015 - Rosie Batty

2016 - Lt. Gen. David Morrison

2017 - Alan Mackay-Sim

We have a great deal to be Thankful for.

leoj,
This woman may well be guilty of fraud, but it is far too early to assume that as at this point the allegations are just that, Allegations.

It appears that most of your first post is lifted from the SMH and I can see at least one questionable statement in that. This relates to the procedure for nomination for Australian of the Year. The SMH has been known to print incorrect statements in the past.

I also have not seen any allegations relating to a government credit card as per your latest post.

It is grossly unfair to lynch someone on the basis of allegations. There may well be some people who will lie to convict a person who has strong views about underage marriage. Cultural traditions can be very hard to change.

It is best to see what the ICAC findings are and then if and when any court proceedings have taken place.

You may form your own opinions, but I will wait on the outcome of the legal procedure.
