Oh yes -

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I'm sure there are "Rules & Exceptions", But the standard rule is tending more & more, towards those in power thinking that they are the Exceptions & they can simply do what they want, to further their short term interests and to hell with the best, long term interests of all of the OZ Public.

Well, it's time, time to deliver a message, to all incumbents, in all levels of OZ Government - SACK THE INCUMBENT!

well the libs are sacking themselves.. left right and centre..cant complain about them/./

they are not complaining they dun nuffink wrong or someone set them up....well so far..

its sad its embarrassing its very very undignified...

so far all I can say in the libs favor is none of the bribes seem to have ended up in their own pockets..... lets hope it remains that way...

it doesnt take anything away from the fact they broke the law....and should step down.and hide in shame.

Sure, there has to be a pretence of a choice between two parties

but to differentiate between the two gangs of crooks is tantamount to trying to split a hair

and not worth the bother

so do you think calling two other parties by a different name.. it will stop the rot???>....

the thing is.. what will the end result be.. will anyone go to jail???... will anyone have to give anything back??? will anyone lose their magnificent pension.?? probably not..

so why not take the risk.. this has been going on for a long time. god only knows what they have got away with in the past...

We can complain about them because they are still in the Parliament.

I think it's grossly unfair that our jails are filled with morally innocent people who simply made a mistake and were then caught by the Mistake Police.

The ordinary police had nothing to arrest them for, because they didn't commit crimes.

It was only when their mistakes were discovered that someone phoned the Mistake Police to arrest them and bring them before the Mistake Courts ~ not the normal Criminal Courts.

Next time the checkout chick at your local supermarket gets the price on something wrong ~ contact the Mistake Police.

This is why the Liberals need to drop their silly objection to lowering the disclosure threshold for political donations. They consistently increase the thresholds and block any moves to lower it to more sensible levels. As long as the Liberals demand high thresholds, they cannot be trusted. What are they hiding? ICAC is revealing what the Liberals prefer to keep hidden.
