Shadow, for one who claims to be so learned at the law. Didn't you get some sort of law degree out of the Cornflakes packet or something, you can't tell the difference between criminal and corrupt behaviour.

What the named Liberals did by setting up a slush fund for illegal money to come their way from developers was corrupt. What these others did was criminal. The payback to developers has been a 98% approval of their development applications by the Coalition State Government.

"I can believe that you are defending a convicted Pedophile" you can believe what you like, I asked did he use the "Jones" defence. It worked for Jones in England, maybe it worked for this fool in Australia. You tell me what was the outcome. You can't because you don't know.

Paul,

For someone that is pig ignorant of the law, a person is only given a date for sentencing once found guilty, and given that others caught in the sting got 8 months jail time for less, the chances are the greens member got a slap on the wrist is bugger all. I am calling you a liar unless you can show otherwise.

Secondly corruption is a serious criminal offense of which none of the individuals you have named have been implicated by ICAC or as far as I can see even charged with a misdemeanor.

Shadow, I see you are more befuddled than usual on this matter. What the topic is about is how politicians are corrupted in public office. Matters which concern the ICAC that second "C" stands for "CORRUPTION". Something your conga line of Liberals would be well familiar with, having being exposed as they were by that vary useful body.
A Federal ICAC is something that the Greens very much favour, but surprise, surprise, both Liberal and Labor are not supportive of, I wonder why.

p/s Where is that list of Liberal skunks theses days, not in the parliament I see. Admittedly your boys and girls are not in the same league as Eddie and Ian from Labor, but give them time.

Paul, I see that your delusion has deepened.

It is worth noting that ICAC did not declare any of these Libs as corrupt, and as far as I can see no charges have been pressed against them, unlike a Greens member Karel Solomon, Who was charged and convicted for a range of pedophilia related charges, and sitting greens MP Tammy Franks was convicted for tax crimes.

Not to mention the acceptance of proceeds of crime by the greens to buy their votes.

The Greens MPs are getting close to Eddie Obeid and his mates.

Shadow if you want to throw in red herrings try these LIBERAL criminals:

"A former West Australian federal LIBERAL PARTY MP has been sentenced to 14 months jail for fraud.
The former member for Tangney, Peter Shack, was found guilty of stealing $100,000 from his former wife's family trust."

Its catching; they even steal from their own.

Disgraced former Victorian LIBERAL PARTY director Damien Mantach has been sentenced to five years' jail for stealing more than $1.5 million from state party coffers.

Other LIBERAL PARTY luminaries to cop criminal charges in recent times;

Tony Packard
Barry Morris
Ray O;Connor
Wayde Smith

I wont even bother to list Liberal cronies from the National Party and their criminal acts.

Shadow, when it comes to the law, and criminality, Liberal and Labor out do the Greens any day.

Shadow, your attempt to smear The Greens is PATHETIC.
Again its game, set and match, for me with this debate. You couldn't back a winner in a one horse race.

The Score; Paul1405 100 v Shadow Minister zilch!

Paul,

So far you have been caught lying several times, and in spite of all your efforts to prove that green farts don't stink including going back nearly 3 decades have failed miserably, and with respect to the size of the greens vs Libs, the level of dishonesty is no better.

You have also completely failed to show any charges for corruption against any liberal. If you call this a win, you can never lose.
