The question the NSW government must ask themselves is why do they protect a thief and allow us , the taxpayer to pay not only her 400k wage put her outrageous superannuation?

Is it a “Glady “ thing?

Female politicians in the NSW government feel “ empowered “ to thieving because “Glady “ did it and nothing happened to her?

Jo Heylen do you and you alone may believe you can charge taxpayers the best part of a thousand dollars to get drunk at a three hour lunch with friends but it’s not ok.

Chris Minns will not sack you as you should be because?

His already scraped the bottom of the minuscule talent barrel labor has put him in charge of.

P.s your haircut is stupid

She STOLE $750 bucks from the NSW taxpayer to pay for her transportation to a private drunken 3 hour lunch.

I dare any other public servants to do the same and not be dismissed and or face court for larceny.

She’s protected ( as Glady is) because she’s just another thieving politician!

She’s “admitted “ her mistake and ( if you can believe a word she says) going repay the $750 she STOLE.

If she has done absolutely nothing wrong as you suggest why is she putting her hand up and saying “ I’m sorry I got caught and will repay it , maybe, if my mates don’t forget to invoice me”?

“ NSW opposition leader Mark Speakman said Ms Haylen showed "utter contempt" for the taxpayer and called on her to resign.

"They forced a government driver into a gruelling 13-hour shift," Mr Speakman said.

"It's an insult to the taxpayer. It's an abuse of taxpayers money."

“ Abc

She’s entitled and female, Glady was corrupt but never faced court.

They are empowered to be corrupt and only be sorry if they are caught!

If labor had any integrity they would not say personal use is a grey area they would ban it.

She used taxpayers money for a piss up in the Hunter valley

You made a bet with Bias that you would leave this forum if Trump won against Hillary.

Why are you still here when are you going to be a man and honour your bet with Bias?

Don't bet with lefties in this forum they never pay up when they lose bets

libs had twelve years, and countless failures of the pub test to do something about it, and did nothing.

labor is looking at reviewing the rules .. we'll wait and see what happens with it

No, it wasn't illegal. It was within the rules for Ministers. But it was a breathtaking display of poor judgement to use a taxpayer funded car and driver for a personal trip to get pissed. Just because she can do it within the rules, doesn't mean she should. This is also what gets me - Minns has refused to sack either of them after being given assurances they won't do it again. Yeah, right.

I definitely agree - it was poor judgement.

However, there's no reason for anyone to be sacked - they've done nothing wrong/illegal/outside the rules.

Daves2017 wrote on Feb 3^rd, 2025 at 11:10am:


Indeed.

I agree with you 100% - it doesn't pass the pub test.

It showed poor judgement.

However, she broke no laws or codes of conduct. 

She did not "steal" anything, as you have claimed.

If you spent private company money on a Hunter valley piss up for friends you would be fired.

For Jo to say this is a grey area for politicians is bullshit

Baronvonrort wrote on Feb 3^rd, 2025 at 4:24pm:


Depends on who you work for and their policies.

I agree this doesn't pass the pub test.

It showed poor judgement.

However, she broke no laws or codes of conduct.

She did not "steal" anything, as is the claimed.

Reports of Jo using taxpayers credit card for another piss up in the Blue mountains.

We need to audit log books to see how much rorting is going on.

Daves2017 wrote on Feb 3^rd, 2025 at 5:37pm:


That usage is perfectly legal.

Nothing has been stolen.

No laws have been broken.

No policies have been breached.

But yeah, it doesn't pass the pub test.

Corrected text: "Using it to transport your children to Saturday sports because you're too hungover to drive them yourself is a breach."

Really?

Show us where it says that in the Ministerial Handbook.

Leroy wrote on Feb 3^rd, 2025 at 6:54pm:


You do know she's a politician, yeah?

Leroy wrote on Feb 3^rd, 2025 at 7:31pm:


She didn't tell any lies, and she didn't steal anything.

All she did was make a poor judgement call that didn't pass the pub test.

Daves2017 wrote on Feb 3^rd, 2025 at 10:22pm:


Those are crimes.

She's committed no crime.

Leroy wrote on Feb 3^rd, 2025 at 11:39pm:


No.

She stole nothing.

She's living rent-free in your head though.

Get To Dar Choppah!!

It's not like they haven't had plenty of warning about those things... sheilas these days are brought up to not remotely understand responsibility and consequences .... had it too easy...

Is the labor premier going to act or is this another broken promise from labor?

I think she just resigned.

But only as Transport Minister, unfortunately.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02-05/nsw-premier-chris-minns-jo-haylen-politic...

I must say I was incorrect in calling her corrupt.

I was corrected by people in this thread on this point and they are proven correct.

I stand by my comments that she’s a horrible woman who disrespected all who pay for her pathetic entitlement to spend our money on drunken wine tours and limousine taxpayer paid lift’s for her children to Saturday sports.

She’s on record of being trained by team “Albo “ so no doubt she’s completely out of touch and looks down on all who may only afford public transport.

I believe Her short time in the role as transport minister for Nsw has been the worse performance of those duties in Nsw history.

I wouldn’t be surprised if she was to drive past the lines of commuters delayed by the tens of thousands in Sydney  recently during union action yelling out her taxpayer funded limousine with the windows down screaming “ you should all eat cake while you wait!”

Labor for the workers, they say it but there actions speak louder.
She’s destroyed the labor “ brand “ in a close election lead up.

Maybe she’s been paid to do this by the lnp?

P.s
It’s a really stupid haircut she has too
