FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Even health conditions. What political mileage can you get out of that?
At first I thought the $3075 paid to the Labor turncoat was pretty cheap as far as political consultancies go.
But actually, the LNP got ripped off.
Give me a few drinks and I would have told them most of it for free.
I’m joking!
Some legally dangerous and distasteful accusations were left out of the media reporting but there was not much more than the silly gossip that circulates in most schools.
They could have got the same information just by sitting in the Parliament’s canteen at lunch time or speaking to some of their own MPs who have been around long enough to have heard the scuttlebutt.
What was disturbing, however, was the information on the schools the Labor MPs’ children attended.
But this sort of political behaviour has been going on since the Borgias (yes, I have been watching the series) and both sides have got their hands dirty at various times.
No doubt somewhere there is some very interesting information about some of the folks in the LNP, given it is a party mostly made up of humans, a species with a tendency to make mistakes.
LNP leader Campbell Newman, who probably had no idea it was going on in his party, copped the most fallout from the dirt file scandal seeing he had been on his high horse recently, accusing Premier Anna Bligh of being a “sleazebucket” and the ALP of being “drunks, punks and desperadoes” because of the increased scrutiny on his financial interests.
Not exactly the same, though, is it?
LNP MPs also used Parliamentary Privilege to launch an extraordinary attack on a new staffer in Ms Bligh’s office, calling him a grub and an “agent of infection”, breaking all tradition on leaving staff members out of the nastier political argy bargy.
Mr Newman has refused to sack the offending campaign officers and that caused a minor rift with his parliamentary leader Jeff Seeney who thought anyone involved should be shunted.
Government MPs refused to believe Mr Newman didn’t know about the files, considering he had used the term “drunk, punks and desperadoes” the previous week.
How did he know to use those words if he didn’t see the files, they asked.
Southport MP Peter Lawlor reminded Parliament of an embarrassing LNP dinner party which went horribly wrong in Cairns a couple of years ago.
“Can I remind Mr Newman that it was not government members who had to be chased down the main street of Cairns in the middle of the night to pay a restaurant bill; it was LNP members,” he said.
“Can I remind Mr Newman that it was not government members who could not get themselves to this chamber to vote in a division because they were too drunk? It was LNP members.”
On Thursday the LNP, trying to reclaim the high road, revealed it was calling in their spy catchers for a six-monthly sweep of their offices for bugs even though they had never found anything in the past.
Were they looking for bugs or grubs?
