Porter disclosed, as is obligatory for all Politian's in Federal Parliament, that he received a sizable anonymous donation to help cover his personal legal fees in his failed litigation with the ABC and reporter Louise Milligan. The purpose of the donation is irrelevant, it could be for a new car, or an overseas holiday, even to cover gambling debts, anything and everything might be acceptable to some. What is relevant is this bloke, a Cabinet Minister, has taken a large amount of money from someone we don't know, and is not being revealed to the public, and thinks its okay. Labor was asked if it passed the pub test, they said it didn't even pass the laugh test. This is the last straw, this bloke who thinks he was born to rule and is above the rest, should be booted from Parliament and a by-election held to find a replacement.

In theory, a parliamentarian is supposed to represent his/her/its voters, thus should owe nothing to anyone else.

So long as the parliamentarian did not promise their voters that they will not accept anonymous donations, then secretly broke that promise, no wrong was committed. On the other hand, voters should not need to have an excuse to boot a "representative" that no longer represents them.

All I can say is good riddance - the country's far better off without him in charge of anything!

However, expelling him from parliament before the next election should be ruled out. Though he's contravened ministerial standards, he hasn't broken the law at all, let alone committed a sufficiently serious offence to warrant that penalty.

Like Bridget McKenzie and Barnaby Joyce Porter will sit quietly for a few months and eventually find his way back into the cabinet, especially if there's an early election.
However his dream of eventually becoming PM may have disappeared and so he may decide not to bother with politics at all.

I suppose, according to the new standard, if Sam Dastyari had been paid via a blind trust he's still be there now.

So this is a new angle for corrupt politicians, a so called "blind trust" where unspecified amounts of dosh are paid into a secret fund by unidentified persons for the finical benefit of the said politician. The amounts and the persons involved possibly only known to the politician themselves. Poor Eddie Obeid, Eddie didn't known where the money was coming from, he thought it was from grateful admirers.

This with Porter stinks like prawn heads in the hot sun! The grub should resign.

Unless you can do something about Porter get over it. You have no say in what he does, and you will all make comments from a purely politically biased point of view. The man is a politician. Don’t kid yourselves or try to kid others that you are shocked or personally affronted. You get the politicians you deserve. Suck it up.

Where to for Christian Porter?

Well for now it's the back bench.
For how long? Who knows?

It seems that the Prime Minister does not like
sacking his people and sees nothing wrong in
this man's behaviour. Which is sad.

This man has suppressed all information about his
case, information which, according to his own
tearful denials, would presumably have exonerated
him, and yet he still remains in Parliament.

Media organizations, including News Corp and Nine
newspapers were blocked from publishing any of the
ABC's defence in its battle with Christian Porter.
Porter lodged a suppression order and only a small
part of the defence was ever made public. Porter
settled with the ABC (no damages paid) before any
of the case could be heard in the Federal Court.

Porter now claims he's accepted enormous sums of money
from people he doesn't know.

For a man with nothing to hide, Porter certainly goes
to great lengths to keep things hidden.

The only people with any say on Porter are the voters of Pearce, WA. At the last election he had a swing to him of 3.36%; but there was a swing of 5.2% away from Labor. I believe that Porter's margin is now only a touch over 1%. And, this is WA, remember. So, all but Pearce voters, unknot your knickers and leave it to the people of Pearce. It doesn't matter damn what you think.

You keep telling us that it doesn't matter a
damn what we think yet you consistently keep
coming back telling us what you think.
Does that mean - what you think doesn't matter
a damn?

Hi Foxy,

ttbn sees himself as a member of the "born to rule class", he's a would be if he could be, telling others what they say is unimportant, then pontificates on the subject himself. Tells others what they have put up for discussion is stupid, then puts up some stupid topic himself. The bloke should contact GY and demand he be made sole arbitrator for what's acceptable on this forum. Better still he can piss off and start his own forum.

Paul,

That's the closest that you've ever come to being funny. To be fair, it's just what you and your two mates and Nathan put up that I find "stupid". Very stupid. But what any of us think is not worth a hill of beans in real life. Sorry to disappoint you and Mother Russia, but nobody who matters cares what you think. When I have anything serious to say to politicians, I contact them directly. Have been doing so all my adult life.

Good ttbn, do you have any private numbers for MP's? They are handy if you want to talk to someone at times. Rather than those emails, read and replied to by a staffer more often than not.

What about that reprobate of an acting PM, Bonking Barney, who has solid form himself, claims Porter has been nothing more than a larrikin, and after a short spell in the naughty boys corner should be brought back in all his glory.

ttbn, all opinions matter, as does yours.

I actually like reading your views, as I do like reading Paul, CM and most others.

I think most of us have some merit within our views, but unfortunately in a complex world we end up gravitating to certain biases as imperfect policy choices have to be made. Hence, the many disagreements.

I do miss Joe Loudmouth's comments.

Pauliar,

Sarah Hansen Young's defamation suit was funded by a slush fund in which many donors remained anonymous by giving fictitious names

shonkysinister,

Making up lies again, got evidence

BTW, Sarah Hansen Young won her case, not like your grubby little TURD!

Pauliar,

Considering that you lie continuously:

Your grubby little turd might have won her case, but the question is what favours will she have to do for her anonymous donors?

"Hanson-Young’s entry shows the senator has allowed a handful of financial backers to hide their identities behind obviously fake names such as “Phoenix The whippet girl” and “Poopy Head”.

Some of the names that appear on Hanson-Young’s register of financial backers are either blatantly fake or too obscure to provide any guide as to the donors’ true identities.

They include: A Non, John51884010, Mary W, Anna B, Buzz Rainbow wolf, Geoff CB, Anne5597418226387985, Xander B, M G, stef stef, Dave C, Bin H, Nikki, E T and Leanne W.

For the senator to view this as somehow superior to Porter’s blind trust is ludicrous."

shonkysinister,

Maybe, 'Cry Baby' Porter's backers were the Melbourne Crime Gang, we don't know. As chief law office maybe he could change a few laws to suit his benefactors, we don't know. As for your deflection to SHY, you are making it up on the run. Why don't you start your own discussion, not that anyone would be interested in your lies and deception, except the forums 'Usual Suspects' of course they love it.

Crybaby Pauliar,

Maybe Syph Hansen young's supporters were gangsters or paedophiles who knows?

Shadow,
ISTM the really big difference was that SHY's donors were genuinely anonymous, not known even to her, while CP's donors were known to him but unwilling to make their identities public.
Can you see why the latter situation is far more serious?

Sarah Hanson-Young won her case including costs, unlike 'Cry Baby' Porter who got sweet FA, didn't want the facts about the rape of a 16 year old girl made public, understandable. According to the forums Wally Rumpole, Cry Baby was in for $10+ million, a grovelling apology, and having 100 ABC employees sacked to pay for it all. This is the same clown who clamed years back that an arrest was "imminent" in the 'Beat Up' Bolt case. The clown also has a fetish with paedophiles.

P/s If I was the Chief Law Officer of the land and my debts were being paid by Al Capone I wouldn't want the world to know about it either.

Shonky,

The conga line of on the take Liberals in South Australia grows by the hour. Any comment?

Pauliar,

You are a filthy liar and a troll.

Your only ability is to lie through your teeth, yet you cry like a baby whenever the various senior greens that were convicted as paedophiles are mentioned. I will concede that not all greens are paedophiles.

The facts are that there was most probably any rape of the 16yr old girl which is why it was never reported to the police.

The ABC made a grovelling apology admitting that nothing they printed supported any case that CP raped this mentally retarded girl and you lied about my claims.

Shadow,
A grovelling apology admitting nothing they printed defamed Porter?

Anyway, please answer my question about donor anonymity!

Aidan,

Firstly they claimed that they never intended to defame him as opposed to their position in the legal suit that what they posted was the truth.

Secondly,

Porter does not know the identity of the donors. If you know otherwise please show this.

Shonky,

"Porter does not know the identity of the donors", of course he does, its just that the voters don't know. Is 'Cry Baby' hiding the identity of these cashed up "anonymous" donors because they might receive some political favour from him in the future, or could it be they are the Melbourne Mafia and not a good look. We don't know, anyway the turd is out on his ear.

Crybaby Pauliar,

Lying again I see and making statements with absolutely no evidence whatsoever just because SHY was caught out. As Porter is from WA SHY is more likely to be connected to the Melbourne Mafia.

Shonky,

I see you are avoiding making another one of your Wally Rumpole retarded legal predictions, this time concerning 'Big Nose' Gladys and her accused corruption. Make another prediction, like the one you made about 'Cry Baby' Porter, $10+ million compensation, a grovelling apology and 100 sacked to pay for it all. Although when Gladys fronted the ICAC 12 months ago you said she had nothing to worry about, now she has been forced to resign. Are you her lawyer?

Pauliar,

I see that you are lying again about what I said.

How are your two mates i.e. the two Green Paedophiles you keep promoting?

Shonky,

After being laughed out of town with your ridiculous claims about the 'Beat Up' Bolt and 'Cry Baby' Porter cases, you will not make a prediction in the 'Big Nose' Gladys case. A wise move on your part, given how stupid you made yourself look previously.

If you change your mind, I have started a discussion on the very subject of alleged Berejiklian corruption. Your input is always welcome.

Pauliar,

After you were humiliated by your false claims being exposed about Porter, Bolt and your own Green Paedophiles, you are now making up lies about Berejiklian.

As far I have read there are no allegations against her only an inquiry.

Maybe you could enlighten us on prison conditions?

Shonky,

How can you be so thick. The ICAC is not the Independent Commission Against Clowns, otherwise it would be investigating YOU, no, its the Independent Commission Against Corruption. CORRUPTION being the operative word, its not interested in Big Nose and her love life with 'Loverboy' Daryl, and what was going on between the sheets. No, its looking into CORRUPTION allegations against your pin up gal, millions for pigeon clubs and tutti-frutti music halls in Wagga Wagga where bad boy Daryl hangs out.

ScumO' wouldn't want a Federal ICAC, not with 'Bonking' Barney, 'Cry Baby' Porter and 'Badarse' Bridget to name but three on the payroll.

Pauliar,

You never fail to display your stupidity. Firstly, while ICAC is supposed to investigate corruption, it has frequently gone on unrelated fishing expeditions finally getting its arse kicked by Margret Cuneen. BoF having to resign over an undeclared bottle of wine is hardly corruption.

Secondly, an investigation does not imply culpability. For example, investigating a couple of green paedophiles does not imply that all greens are paedophiles.

Shonky,

Investigating one dodgy Premier for corruption doesn't mean all Premiers are dodgy, although Marshmallow Marshall in SA, corruption down there with a conga line of Liberals fronting the ICAC. then there's that Liberal bloke in Tassie Gutless Pete, both very sus.

Your hero BOF, was shown to be CORRUPT. End of story.

Wally Rumpole; In your opinion what will be the outcome of the Gladys case?

Dan Andrews is probably the most corrupt premier along with Anna P and possible MG in WA that all spend taxpayer's money for their own purposes.

As for BOF, not declaring a bottle of wine is not a crime and by definition, not corruption - idiot.

PS crybaby Pauliar,

There is no case against GB - idiot.

Shonky,

there is wine and there is wine. In the case of the corrupt Fatty O'Barrel it concerned a bottle of 'Grange Hermitage' worth 10 grand. CORRUPTION.

"There is no case against GB - idiot." wait and see, she has already fallen on her sward, with a couple of other Coalition reprobates. A year ago you said Gladys was in the clear, seems not.

Crybaby Pauliar,

Once again you are lying scumbag as the vintage BoF got that you claim is worth $10 000 last sold for $3500 and a decade ago was probably worth far less than that. Even this is not a crime unless you consider just about every Green MP that forgot to declare donations worth $1000s (SHY for one).

Once again there is no case against GB - idiot as not a jot of evidence of corruption has yet been found.

Compared to the senior Greens convicted of paedophilia she is clean as a whistle.

Shonkyminister,

As one who sees himself as a member of the snobby, highbrow, born to rule class, you will have to do better than a quick 'Google' of Grange Hermitage and come up with the fact its on sale at Dan Murphys for $3,500 a bottle. You have no idea what vintage the bottle given to Fatty O'Barrel was, and its value. Just to let you know vintage affects the value of Penfolds Grange Hermitage. Not that would concern a drinker of a $3/bottle of piss like yourself.

Poor old Fatty O' was given a very expensive bottle of plonk, says a lot for these Liberal clowns claiming to represent the battlers of the state. Then according to him, he chucked it in the broom closet and forgot about it. Fatty fronted the ICAC to give evidence concerning the party that gave him this $10k bottle of plonk, the grub then lied when asked if he had received a gift from said party, answering, NO! The next day it was shown Fatty lied and he had to resign.

Shonky for someone who can't spell like you, I don't expect you to understand LIBERAL PARTY CORRUPTION IN NEW SOUTH WALES.

Pauliar,

The more you post the more you look like a complete Fwit.

Actually, I do know the vintage and you would too if you looked it up before lying again. A little hint is that recent vintages go for well less than $100.

But then you are probably more used to the standard jailhouse brew.

I don't expect you to understand greens PARTY CORRUPTION IN AUSTRALIA including paedophilia, assault, robbery, etc.

P.S. Bubonic Dan is now under investigation for corruption.

shonkyminister, Wow more deflection.

As a rabid far right extremists, you obviously don't understand the meaning of the word CORRUPTION, its does not include paedophilia, assault, robbery, they are CRIMNAL offences, there is a difference. For one stuck up as yourself, claiming to be a man of letters, having claimed to have read the law, you are ignorant. As your posts show, you hardly have a primary school education, and never learnt to spell, let alone comprehend meanings.

If Dan Andrews is under investigation for corruption, which nothing indicates he is, he should stand aside. Big Nose seen the evidence, she decided to cut and run, her decision. You also clamed Mark McGowan and Annastacia Palaszczuk were corrupt, but that was only a childish outburst on your part, without evidence. Just look at the CORRUPTION in the Federal Coalition, its rampant. You accept such corruption as those turds are your kind of turds. End of story.

Paul, your lack of English expression is evident as you use 4th grade toilet thinkong to describe people. Do you have a bowel problem?

Pauliar,

For fwit pedogreens corruption is anything done by any other party. The purview of ICAC/IBAC is any illegal act committed by a public official.

As for evidence, you have never bothered with any before and certainly not here. You have bugger all evidence against GB which doesn't stop you from lying your face off.

SHY for one took her kid on a luxury boat trip as part of an investigation into the northern cape which is more corrupt than anything BoF ever did.

As for ignorance, I see your time in juvie failed to teach you how to spell

Proud Boy Jose'

You must have went to the same remedial school as your mate above. What is the meaning of "thinkong" YOU lost me when you condoned violent extremism, Washington, Jan 6th 2021. No doubt conducted by the 'Rednecks' who are your kinda people!

Pauliar,

Considering your abysmal spelling and juvenile grammar, I wouldn't go pointing fingers.

Shonky,

You were one of the finger pointers in the first place, when I seen you spelt the stuff to make plants grow as fetaliser, or something, I though you, being a stuck up expert on everything, maybe you had discovered a Greek cheese that's good for the garden. You Wally Rumpole.

I rest my case

Pauliar,

Your last post makes you look brain damaged. You're Ronny Retard.

Give it a rest guys!
