When the oppositions response to the arse kicking they got last time was to install the person who got their arse kicked last time then I have little faith they could do a good job.

And anyone who makes the likes of Tim Smith shadow AG obviously has NFI LOL

Yes of course, but, DAN??? You really want to see him on your TV again?

LOL


made me think of that

 PT, wrong there he turns 50, however he should have a party , who should he invite ?

A. All his new front bench as they would not be plotting to overthrow him and due to their inexperience they can be placed on the kid's table wearing name tags and be limited to one red cordial each.

B. All those cross bench nobodys in the Victorian Upper House who rubberstamped his lockdown laws and restrictions imposed supposedly to combat COVID.

C. Elbow of course due to his recent elevation to PM. Let's hope he makes it back in time from his overseas jaunts

D. "Karen from Brighton" to repay her for the wrath she received from Dan for having the hide to walk around Brighton to defy Dan's COVID restrictions.

E. Shane Patton, Police Chief Commissioner, who dutifully provided the law enforcement muscle for Dan over the pandemic ,rubber bullets and all. Shane could double up as Master of ceremonies.

Maybe he could invite dim Tim, on the proviso that dim Tim bring the wine.  Dan, being the responsible leader that he is, would ensure dim Tim got a lift home safely to avoid another "incident".

Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has apologised for what he has described as "absolutely disgraceful behaviour" by Labor MPs detailed in a report by the state's anti-corruption watchdog.

Key points:

  • Operation Watts was a joint probe between the Victorian Ombudsman and the state's anti-corruption watchdog
  • The investigation was prompted by 2020 reports detailing allegations of branch stacking — a process used to recruit party members by paying for their membership
  • Today's report has handed down 21 recommendations to address ongoing corruption risks

The report, released by Victoria's anti-corruption watchdog on Wednesday, uncovered "egregious" and "extensive misconduct" by Victorian Labor MPs, including rampant nepotism, widespread misuse of public resources and a culture of branch stacking dating back decades.

Almost as bad as Andrews (the Liberal dinosaur) along with ex-Minister Michael Sukkar and others stacking Liberal Party memberships with Right Wing allegedly out of zone members.  A defamation case launched by another senior Liberal Party against Sukkar and company has not yet been heard.

Sorry Sunshine, don't really care to provide updates unless there's a accusation that one major party alone is in the cross-hairs.

Simply because branch stacking has been historically practiced with extreme fervor by both Liberal and Labor at both Federal and State level.

I have been out and about all day, so earlier today Dan had the hide to say he is sorry ? What a joke, he was up to his ears in the rort and expects the public to believe he knew nothing about the Red Shirts. I have lost count of the number of colleagues he has pushed under buses yet he still manages to keep a straight face at any press conference.

Just how fortunate are Dan and his cronies as the IBAC commissioners have determined that although the acted  'egregiously ' ( rampant nepotism, forging of signatures, attempts to give government grants to factionally aligned community organisations  etc ) they would not be charged by the police because existing laws are so weak they could not stop MPs abusing 'grey' areas.

Danny Boy has insisted he is the right person to lead the cultural clean-up in the ALP and has slammed his colleagues' behaviour.Wink

I seem to remember, only recently, another ALP  premier, north of the Tweed River, not accepting any guilt, but similarly coming out and apologising for a toxic culture within her party .

Just what is it about these ALP premiers ?
