Peter Slipper is a politician, barrister, christian, a priest, is married and has two children.

A man of such moral upstanding that we could not ask for more in our political representatives.

Massaging it, perhaps?:D :D :D

He was a very good Speaker, on the floor of parliament.

Eager, are you saying that it would also be quite acceptable for a known pedophile to be Speaker of the House provided he does his speaker's job well?

I'm not insinuating that Slipper is as such, however, have used that as an illustration.

Looking forward to your reply...:D

Are you a chicken or what? GG didn't answer my question.

On the one hand you may be claiming that Slipper is a known pedophile, but your signature states that your posts are just your opinion and my own research is required...

No.

Put up or shut up. :rolleyes:

Eager - now you are getting stupid. Utterly stupid. Are you not able to comprehend?

I specifically said that I used that as an illustration and that I was not insinuating anything of the sort. You are an utter idiot and entirely rude to twist my words in that way. Shame on you.

However, let me ask you that simple question again and see if you can answer it:

"Eager, are you saying that it would also be quite acceptable for a known pedophile to be Speaker of the House provided he does his speaker's job well?

What a twat you are...:eek::eek::eek:
 
A statement tonight from Andrew Wilkie who I believe is an independent MHR representing Orbost or Tasmania, somewhere south of Townsville anyway.

A Statement on Peter Slipper

I am of the strong view that Peter Slipper should not resume the Speaker’s Chair until all of the allegations against him are dealt with, including the allegation of sexual harassment.

My take on the whole affair:
(a) If Slipper is found guilty of fraud, so be it; it will be dealt with in a legal sense. If he goes a row, again, so be it.
(b) If Slipper is found guilty of sexual harrassment, so be it; it will be dealt with in a legal sense. If he goes a row, again, so be it.
(c) The media is fixated. It is not really 'news.'

I disagree here. It is genuinely news.

He holds the most important position in the parliament.

His background is dubious at best. He only avoided charges of fraud over past expenses by quickly paying back the 'misclaimed' amount.

If he's proven to be guilty of a criminal offence that goes to more than just his own character. It also reflects on the government's machiavellian move of getting rid of a perfectly OK Speaker in Harry Jenkins and replacing him with Slipper for purely political purposes.

The Coalition are not in any position to be too self righteous here either, considering they endorsed him 9 times. Mr Abbott should just shut up on this and let matters take their course.

Even if Mr Slipper is able to return to the Speaker's position, he will for ever after be a laughing stock as everyone titters behind his back about his sexual activities.
Hardly what any parliament can sustain in The Speaker imo.

I challenge any rusted-on coalition voter to convince me that Slipper has not been a good Speaker of the House.

Yes, he has been much better than anyone anticipated. I've not heard a single complaint about his actual performance in the role, despite the silly fancy dress.

lol!

I once called someone an idiot and was reprimanded, and the comment removed. You call me an utter idiot besides the anatomical reference and all is well....hmmm....

But I digress. Ms sails, I will repeat the comment that you misunderstood which caused your anger management issue to come to the fore, as well as your near-potty mouth.

Get well soon, luv. xx

Pedophile could be seen as a provocative illustration, but Sails made it clear that that it was only that.
