Since using union members' money to pay for prostitutes Craig Thomson has lost his reputation, his Labor Party membership and his seat in federal parliament.
On Tuesday he will learn whether it will cost him his freedom when he appears before the Melbourne Magistrates Court for sentencing. CAN'T WAIT ... !!! :) |

if he doesnt get time... it will set a terrible precedent...
Adler did time and so did Bond..they both thought they could get away with it.. to me the amount doesnt change the deed.. if you are in a position of trust then that makes it all the more despicable. |

It's quite common. It could happen to any of us. Mr Thomson has always proclaimed his innocence in this matter, and I think we should do the honourable thing and give him the benefit of the doubt. Anything else is just a witch hunt against a man who selflessly served workers and his community for most of his adult life. Until Mr Thomson is proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, I think we should take him at his word. He is a good man, a kind and helpful man who has devoted his life to helping those most in need. Unlike that awful Arthur Sinodinos. That man has corruption written all over him. It's as plain as the nose on his face. |

Mr Thomson has declared his innocence, and without further evidence, I think we should all put the matter to rest.

Marc Bolano and Kathy Jackson on ABC news again, seemingly for hours. Kathy has stolen much more than what Thomson got convicted for—add a ‘0’ to the amount. Jackson’s ex–husband visited brothels frequently—on the HUS credit card. I doubt the HSU will launch any further action—they have made an example of Thomson and they certainly don’t want anymore investigation into the HSU.
This has been a political investigation—a FWA investigation supposedly into the HSU that somehow became an investigation into just Thomson, a report so bad they only released it under Parliamentary privilege for fear of being sued if they just published it. None of the MSM have done any digging of their own in this case. Today the salivating by the Lib apologists here was obscene. |

For a $25,000 theft - 3 months sounds reasonable especially when you compare it to Peter Reith's theft of $52,000 from a government issued phone card. Yes he paid it back when he was caught, but he wasn't even suspended thanks to Howard protecting him.
Why is robbing from the taxpayer any different to robbing from union members? Whatever happened to the charges laid against Howard's mates for the AWB scandal? Once the inquiry was finished the matter was hidden under the carpet. I expect the RW's here who are so full of rage against a thieving LW politician will expect the same standards of justice next time a thieving RW politician is caught with his hands in the till. Harsher laws should be created so a politician of any persuasion who is caught stealing should be charged and convicted then lose his parliamentary pension after a lengthy stay in gaol. Maybe it would be a deterrant if the book was thrown at them instead of just a little slap on the wrist - that's if they even get that. |

Then to have some utter smug pr1ck then spend it on business class flights for he and his wife and fritter their money away on women in brothels?
