I think it is suggesting that Carlton continues, as always, to be run as a private networking opportunity for leeches from the big end of town.

yes and more broadly questionable business practices.

That's where I get my money!

Why they're continuing to remind people about Brittany Higgins is beyond me. It's going to hurt them much more than it is any of their opponents.

there's something odd going on here. the reactionaries have all fallen in line behind lehrmann. and who's funding all his litigation?

as distinct from van who they walked away from as quick as they could.

How good is the private sector

Businesses paying cash to another organization to escape community responsibility including taxes? Isn’t that Mafia?

on a [somewhat] unrelated matter, fed govt should release details of the rachelle miller payout .... in the interests of full transparency of course

Lehman's lawyer is representing a high profile person who has been accused of two historical sexual assaults in Queensland.

Wonder who that might be, since the media aren't yet allowed to print his name?

no josh, you were so far up scummo and everyone knows it. even to the point of mirroring him by kicking your state when it was down. you were an incompetent self-seeking m.p


as for your belittling term of ‘teal witch’, monique is the best local member we’ve had. does heaps of work in the electorate. is effective in canberra. embraces and informs. is super intelligent. i hope you the anti-victorian self-seeking, awful economic manager, and s**t local member stand cos you’ll get done like a dinner again.

All Fry and no Berg.

He will never run again; ScoMos Canberra lapdog sinking his slipper into Victoria from afar when our State was struggling under Covid.
The other Victorian traitor, Health Minister Hunt, had the sense to read the room and declined to run again.

Yes you are correct, the public are already well aware that he was a shithouse treasurer. He thoroughly proved that already.

Brother, I am no Chalmers fan, he is a boilerplate neoliberal.

But he is streets ahead of old Fredos viciousness, incompetence and 3rd rate Thatcher worship.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers has been caught out misrepresenting the latest wages data to claim the average worker is better off under Labor. Treasury analysis claiming Australian workers were better off under Labor fails to account for the impacts of inflation, collapsing labour productivity and the fact that GDP per capita fell by -0.3% in Labor’s first year in office.


Asked in Senate Question Time whether Treasury analysis promoted by the Treasurer accounted for inflation, Finance Minister Katy Gallagher couldn’t name the real wages outcome for the last financial year. Shadow Treasurer Angus Taylor said this is further proof that the Treasurer is a Doctor of Spin not a Doctor of Economics. “The conga line of Labor Ministers claiming this analysis as a victory shows the Treasurer and the government are completely out of touch with the very real and painful cost of living pressures facing Australian families,” Mr Taylor said.

“Data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) shows working households are in fact paying 9.6 per cent more under this government. “Mortgage bills have doubled, power bills are up more than 15 per cent, productivity has fallen off a cliff and last week’s National Accounts revealed we’re now in a per capita recession. This means the only thing left propping up our economy is record population growth. “Australians need a Treasurer laser-focused on fighting inflation but instead they have a tricky Treasurer who is more interested in spinning numbers then solving the cost of living crisis. “A Treasurer focused on reinventing capitalism, wasting money, raising taxes, reshaping the productivity commission to suit Labor’s big Australia agenda and prioritising airlines to drive up the cost of airfares then take its competition policy seriously.”

Angus Taylor!!!! How desperate are the Libs when this failed dud can still get a gig.

How anyone take him seriously; Watergate, Grassgate, the $15m doctored document question.
Not to metion his climate chane believes an attitudes to women

Frydenburg and Costello were both capable politicians but the way they were talked up as potential Liberal saviours, Costello in 06/07 and Frydenburg lately was a bit ott considering both ultimately lacked the spine to even challenge the leader at the time.

The entirety of Fredos reign was one bumbling cluster **** after another. Chalmers has a long way to go, to match one of the worst treasurers since Howard's run.

Not even close. Fredo is as bad as I've seen in my lifetime.

Not a fact he couldn't fumble, a pork barrel he couldn't back and a Victorian he couldn't alienate.

Turns out the idea of Fredo, was much greater than angry little bald man himself.
