Slippery Pete

Jump to new
Slippery is a former long term Liberal MP. What do Labor care as long as he is independant (leaning more there way as the vitriol continues).

I am amused that all his faults are appearing now. Where were they in his previous terms?

Because there were never any charges laid against slipper in his previous terms.

On this occassion he has involved himself in two serious charges since becoming the speaker.

One is a criminal charge of fraud with his cab charge and the other is a civil case with sexual harrassment of James Ashby his assistant.

It's been alleged he did these things. There has been no charges, yet.

The sexual harassment thingee is just a lover's tiff between two turncoats. No crime there. If he is charged it will be on his alleged Cabcharge voucher rort. And the main witness is James Ashby. When they kiss and make up, as they always do, Ashby's evidence will become the "I don't recollect" variety.

Gillard is safe. Slipper is safe except for the stench. :22_yikes:

I agree. If the allegation of sexual harassment is based on the published text messages, I find it pretty hard to see much harassment there. Mr Ashby could have been into a bit of entrapment judging by his remarks. He also apparently has a less than perfect record himself.

But hell, I will never understand why these high profile people lay themselves open to these allegations by indulging in such stupid and risky behaviour! Where is their common sense!

It would be nice if they'd just get on with the job the taxpayer pays them to do instead of focusing on their sexual predilections.:(

That's the problem they get on with the job and we suffer some more.
 
Sex



Pete picks up a fag in the cross



"Hey, how much you charge for the hour, ducky?" he asks.



"$100," he replies.



he says,



"Do you do immigrant style?"



"No" he says.



"I pay you $200 to do immigrant style."



"No," he says, not knowing what immigrant style is.



"I pay you $300."



"No," he says.



"I pay you $400."



"No," he says.



So finally he says,



"OK, I pay $1,000 to do immigrant style."



He thinks, "Well, I've been in the game for over 10 years now. I've had every kind of request from weirdoes from every part of the world. How bad could immigrant style be?"



So he agrees and has sex with him. Finally, after several hours, they finish.



Exhausted, the F*&kee turns to him and says, "Hey, I was expecting something perverted and disgusting. But that was good.So, what exactly is immigrant style?"



Pete replies, "You send bill to Government."



AND THAT, MY FELLOW TAXPAYERS, IS EXACTLY HOW THEY ARE SCREWING US!
 
I saw the Bolt report this morning where he had Peter Costello as a guest. In the Slipper segment Costello neglected to say that he attended Slipper's second marriage.
Inge was probably well aware she was married to a low-life, but now the whole world knows, which must be devastating for her.

The couple had a long courtship, with Inge at first reluctant to accept her older suitor's hand.

They married in 2006, in front of family and high-profile politicians like Kevin Rudd, Peter Costello and Bronwyn Bishop.

Mr Slipper's two children from his previous marriage, Nicholas and Alexandra, now in their 20s, were best man and bridesmaid at the wedding.

Mr Abbott arrived late at the wedding - a 1.5 hour nuptial mass - kissing the bride as she was about to head down the aisle.

The love of dressing up and pageantry that he brought to the speakership makes a lot more sense now.
 
Wonder how all this started?
House has been on a break.
Sort out the mess before the next election.
Job 1 get rid of slipper.
Job 2 take Swan's trophy away from him until he fixes the economy.
Job 3 be nice to the elderly.
job 4 kick s**t out of Tony Abbott.
job5 etc.etc.
...
...
job 1223 must look in to the Craig Thompson affair.

Now that he has been outed, he plans to march in the next Mardi Gras wearing a mini speaker's robe and a jock-strap.

I thought you knew everything IF...:D

No, he resigned from the libs and became independent.

Too bad about his constituents who voted for him as a liberal. I reckon pollies shouldn't be allowed to do this - if an elected MP resign from their party surely there should be a bi-election to give the electorate chance to decide if they like their chosen MP to switch camps or vote someone else in who will continue to represent the party.

Surely that would be a better representation of democracy.
