I for one am not interested in signing any petition..

Wise decision ...

As these sort of STUNTS are not worth the piece of cyberspace they occupy

Thomson CANNOT be forced to resign by ANYONE

The ONLY chances are ...

1. He can CHOOSE to resign - HIS decision

2. He can be removed, if found guilty, on charges YET TO BE LAID, all APPEALS are exhausted - and he is sentenced to twelve months imprisonment or more

3. He is defeated at the 2013 Federal Election

SORRY folks - that's IT

If I voted there I'd have a few concerns regarding the "smarts" ( ... or lack, thereof) of the councilors behind this NONSENSE

yes I for one know that...

I also had the very same opinion of GETUP when it organises boycotts.. and the like..

"

Your UNHEALTHY, almost PSYCHOTIC, obsession with the lobby group aside for a moment - I'm not quite sure where Get Up fits into the Craig Thomson "saga" ?

And who is the "you" in "WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ?"

?

Strange isn't it that I am most concerned about the lowest paid workers in Australia and how their money has been subject to appalling waste and embezzlement.

Yet Buzz - an alleged Socialist - seems not bothered at all about it.

can you tell us what SHONKY evidence you are referring too?

as for the juvenile behaviour

what would you have all crowed about had abbott had just sat there and taken his vote
??????????

and the juvenile behaviour of THOMO would just go on and on..but of course thats OK..

I for one do not like a lynch mob society...

but of course that does go for both sides of parliament/and voters for me.

He has no legitimate say in how anybody votes.

It does not reflect on him in any way.

THe only thing he achieved was to make a goose of himself.

Quote:

MEMBERS of Parliament's powerful privileges committee are unenthusiastic about pursuing Craig Thomson and will mount a go-slow inquiry and hand out only the minimum penalty if anything untoward is found.

The Herald understands that Labor and Coalition MPs on the committee are uncomfortable with having to pass judgment on whether one of their own has misled Parliament, the accusation the Coalition has made against Mr Thomson.

Oh dear Tony, seems FWA work practices have infected senate committees

He's MORE concerned with "rule of law" - and what you Americans call "doo process"

I think that there is probably a solid case against Thomson for something, but not sure if it will be of a criminal nature.

The FWA case has been very significantly discredited in my view by the relationship between the major whistle blowing witness and the FWA senior executive, the police investigation in my view holds the key to any legitimate progress.

In 2008 the soon to be SACKED commissioners of Howard's ( ... so called) "Fair Pay Commission" gave Australia's lowest paid workers a departing kick in the guts by refusing a 50 cents an hour pay increase - ruling, they deserved NOTHING

You openly SUPPORTED this politics, while laughing at collecting your OWN pay increase, disguised as a "bonus"

So cut the "I am most concerned about the lowest paid workers in Australia" CRAP !

Is it enough for him to be kicked out of parliament and if not should the rules be changed and the standards lifted for everyone.
There should not be one rule for Thommo and another for everyone else in the house
