Well done LIBs
You did the right and honourable thing

Rudd went whoring at SCORES

Thommo went whoring and sat in parliament for years

Turnbull's got untaxed money parked in the Cayman Islands, so what's your point?

If this money is taxable under Australian laws then it should be taxed

Facts are the ATO deem he's done everything above board therefore case closed

You're mighty quick to shut down the discussion. Case closed? Rubbish.

If the money is not being taxed in Australia, then Australian tax laws are deficient. The parade of tax-dodging multinationals in this year's Senate inquiry into tax avoidance is a case in point. Money should be taxed where it is earned, and not shifted off into a low-tax jurisdiction for no other reason than tax avoidance and personal or corporate greed.

What happened to the "budget emergency"? It suddenly disappeared when the spotlight of scrutiny was shone onto the greedy rich.

Ive never heard of him... and neither have most of you...

shock horror...he very much sounds s if he shouldnt have been on the front bench in the first place.... a bit like... he who must remain nameless.

You've never heard of the bloke who tried to crash tackle Abbott at the Party on the Night of the Big Piss Up (paid for by us) of the day Turnbull, Bishop and Morrison knifed Abbott? Never heard of the marble table destroyed. Never seen this image taken after the Party?

http://www.smh.com.au/content/dam/images/g/j/m/r/1/x/image.related.articleLeadwi...

Is it known for sure that the taxpayer payed for the party?

Yes.

And the word is 'paid'.

I have had this debate before. Paid is the more common spelling for the past tense and past participle of pay, but payed is a legitimate and grammatical, albeit less common, alternative.

It's obsolete, unless we are talking about the nautical use, technically.

What did Wyatt Roy do, Matty?

he rejected Matty's advances.

Excuse me, I’ll have you know Matty is waiting for Miss Right.

If there are any interested specialists on 180 grand or more, please send me a private message.

I thought Mirrabella was his Miss Right?

She was, JS, but she's married. Matty didn't want to live in sin.

Principles are important, you know.

Unless you're a leftard.

So Briggs has released a photo of the woman to other MPs and possibly to The Australian.

He is a real scumbag in my opinion.

he is not a Labor member is he cods?

Trying to crack on to a public servant and cheat on his wife while out drinking in HK

Scumbag through and through

THIS DOPE OBVIOUSLY CANT HANDLE HIS GROG AS HE WAS ALSO INVOLVED IN THE BROKEN TABLE INCIDENT WHILE DRUNK!

MALCOLM, MARK HIS FILE "DO NOT PROMOTE FROM BACK BENCH!"

Here is a:

Link.

This bloke is a turd. Irredeemable. There are other links in which he boasts about how he was anxious to protect the victim's privacy.....yet......images taken by his camera (and I say by him) have somehow managed to get to others including the schmedia.

Arsehole!

yes he is definitely LABOR material...how did they miss him?..

hilarious...

numpty even calls him a scumbag..

hes never called Gerard Baden-Clay that...... Roll Eyes

I guess we have different ideas of what makes a scumbag........thank goodness for some mercies.

when we read tripe like this about Briggs... it makes me wonder where on earth they find these people in the first place....

dont forget if he worked in the private sector he couldnt be "fired" without some long drawn out process..after which he can sue....
