somebody has been sending thomson emails telling him to cut his wrists. The police are investigating it. I wonder if it was someone here? There are ppl here who seem to hate him enough. Weird cause its a political scandal. Not like he has done anything hateworthy. Not even sure hes done anything @ all.

SOB

From DRAH's link in the OP.

Quote:

"Tony Abbott himself recognised (in that speech) the toxic nature of the place has to change," Mr Fitzgibbon told ABC TV.

"Yet now here he is making it more toxic than ever before."

Mr Fitzgibbon said hypothetically if Mr Thomson were guilty of all the allegations against him, "the punishment he has received both in the parliament and the media is greater than that he deserves."

While I agree with the start of that quote, and sincerely wish that Mr Abbott would behave more decently, the last paragraph is something I cannot support.

If Mr Thomson is guilty of everything alleged against him, then his personal suffering over the matter would then have to be construed as primarily self inflicted, by falsely declaring innocence, which he knew was untrue.
If that were the case, then he should receive the maximum penalty for all offenses alleged.

However, we do not as yet know his guilt or innocence, and as such, everyone should back off, and reflect upon their own behaviour.
If Mr Abbott truly wished to represent the principles of Christianity, which he has often asserted as being so important to respect, both individually, and as a society, then he has failed terribly in displaying any such principles in this imbroglio of shame.

This sort of harassment would not be accepted anywhere in the workforce so despite what Thomson has been accused of, driving him to the point of self harm is not acceptable.
Now it is obvious that Thomson is in the middle of a breakdown anyone pushing him further will have blood on their hands..it is now time to let justice take its course.
