First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.

Undecided

When he's found innocent I'll send him $20 but I reckon my money is safe

And if he's found not guilty, you'll accept that decision?

Yep..and I'll send him the $20 to help pay for his legal bills but until then why would anyone help someone who may have ripped off lowly paid union members.

G*d bless you Aussie and Mr Thomson. It's people like the brave Mr Thomson who are in there fighting for the down-trodden, the voiceless, the wretched, and others who lack the ability to articulate what it is they desire. I've even heard Mr Thomson has conducted several interviews with 'sex workers' to find out what it is they want and how he can assist them.

Don't stop fighting Mr Thomson. May G*d give you strength.

The ALP, the progressive party, the party of ideas, the workers' friend, is the only Australian political party to roast four young Australians in roof cavities. SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!

1. He's more or less admitted that he did do it.
2. What has Abbott done on the same level?

Threatening to punch a women...sexually assaulting another and having another one sent to prison all for daring to compete with him.
Thats a sad list in anyones books.

So Matty, exactly how much were you charging Thomo when you used to work at the brothel? That $200 g wasn't union money was it?

Our esteemed leader:
I hope that bitch who was running their brothels for them gets raped with a cactus.
