Goodbye Bronnie

Resigned as speaker in the last hour. Looking for a helicopter as we speak.

She should have thought how it turned out for Brian Peake.

With Little heading over to the Grand Prix we might just have a position for her.

So what now is she going to the back bench earnings $190k a year?

That wouldn’t pay her hair spray bill

So what now is she going to the back bench earnings $190k a year?

Yeah, bit bewildering that.

She resigns as a supposedly independent speaker, becomes a mere Lib MP, and that’s somehow supposed to make it all better?

She was a lib MP when she actually made some of these claims, wasn’t she?

Yes.

The thing is though, legally she has not committed a crime, just abused the priviledge she has. So not sure how she can be forced out fully over this, which is what really should happen. The Libs did make a point today to say that this will open all sorts of issues for all sidfes of politics as they each go looking for all the dodgy stuff they all get up to.

She was a pathetic Speaker. Good riddance, apart from this dodginess outside of that role.

Incorrect apparently. Tony Burke this morning calling for fed cop investigation, as claim for wedding was deliberately falsified as to read political business for the claim. Which means conscious fraud.

Well then, that is not good and if proven true will cause he to resign from politics.

Ruddock seems to be the pick everyone in politics wants and he has declared he would be interested.

'Cause he’s old?

'Cause he's old?

72 and if you read the thread about Cilla Black you will come to realise that 72 is too young.

Farking great. The man is not much better than Bishop. Was Howard’s Scott Morrison.

Yeah, on first glance it seems this is a Liberal nomination to stop a Labor “victory”, given they have suggested Deputy Speaker Scott, and to keep the Nationals in their subservient position.

Meh they should just stick a chook there.
