Labor are Corrupt
Feb 18^th, 2014 at 5:20pm

Little billy boy and the mess Gillard are next.

UPDATE: THE former union official accused of setting Craig Thomson up “with a bunch of hookers” says he feels vindicated after the disgraced former MP was today found guilty of using members’ funds to pay for sex.

Thomson accused Marco Balano, former deputy general secretary of Health Services Union East, of setting him up after threatening to destroy his career before allegations of misusing his union credit cards surfaced.

A defiant Thomson publicly denied the allegations as untrue for several years before his arrest by police at his parliamentary office in January last year.

He even made an impassioned plea to parliament in 2012 during which he claimed Mr Bolano “threatened to set me up with hookers”.

“There was a particular threat made ... by Marco Bolano ... to the effect that he would seek to ruin any political career that I might have sought by setting me up with a ‘bunch of hookers’,” Thomson claimed.

dont forget he also used the name Jeff Thomson.. Roll Eyes

not a good look..but I dont think he particularly cared who he took down with him to be honest..he was very lucky to have gillards support for more than 12 months..so he could sit on the back bench..and pick up a very good wage..
personally I dont think it does Australian politics any favours...at all... i n the past 12 months an awful lot has come out what they get up too.. and more to come with the royal into the unions....

its nothing to be proud of thats for sure.

we are after all supposed to be able to trust these people..

Whilst I don't disagree with the basic idea that Laborarecorrupt, I would suggest you haven't gone far enough.

What you should have said, is Politiciansarecorrupt!

Which of course includes -
Laborarecorrupt
Liberalsarecorrupt
Nationalsarecorrupt
Greensarecorrupt
Andanyotherpolliesivemissedarealsocorrupt

And then, of course, there are -
Unionsarecorrupt
Businessesarecorrupt
AndofcourseBIGbusinessesarecorruptBIGtime

Finally, my apologies, if I've missed anyone, who should rightly be included?
