Incredible that he still stands up there and tries to play the victim and his lawyer is doing a good job of assisting him.
Do they think the police do this out of spite ? 150 charges of fraud is no traffic ticket.

I thought Garret was the minister for education, oh hang on didn't they try to sack him:rolleyes:

Maybe now he will just pick up the slack, it will help the budget bottom line.:D
Just maybe Evans has some pride and has had enough of this circus, talk about disfunctional government. :D
It would be funny if it was a t.v show.
Days of our lives, starring Jullia Gillard, Wayne Swan, Bill Shorten and Greg Combet with supporting actors Nicola Roxon and others that can't be remembered. Background lyrics by Peter Garret ( who would like a starring role).
Well its not that far fetched, it has been going on for five years.:eek:

Listening to the ABC's PM show, one has to wonder what Labor and Craig Thomson's so-called lawyer are on.

Next up on the ABC's PM show was this,

One also has to wonder what will result in the bigger crash in the Labor house of cards. Labor pulling one from under Craig Thomson or the other way around.

Perhaps Senator Chris Evans has come to the realisation that not even Jesus Christ can save them now.

It may be a bit far fetched, but could the plan be to make it look like the police are anti-Labor, so that when they come (hopefully) knocking on Julia's door, she can claim its a political conspiracy to get her.

Labor itself would have to throw in the towel on her leadership before it comes to that, surely.

I don't think I've ever heard anything like the hysterical performance by Mr McArdle, Thomson's lawyer. Just weird, almost obscene.

Will he, perhaps, be the first of quite a few sensing disaster ahead, who don't want to be associated with it all?
I don't know anything about Mr Evans' performance in his current portfolio, but in Immigration he was less than useful.
 
The election is 8 months away, let's not think the government is going to implode this week.
As nice as it sounds, they have riden bad criticism previously and will do so again.
There is nothing stronger, than the feeling the ship is going down, to make them bond together.:D

The only ones who will feel bad are the ones that don't qualify for a full pension. Don't worry Labor voters Jullia does.:xyxthumbs

I wonder how the pensions will go if Abbott wins and has a royal commission into unions ?
Would past politicians be dissadvantaged if a criminal prosecution was prosecuted?

This will be reality t.v to the MAX. yeh :xyxthumbs
 
I'm looking forward to the end of the Gilard Government... Raising Super atm is just great for all of us small business owners.. wonder who really put the wheels in to get that through :rolleyes: amazing how many industry super ads you see on atm as well.
 
Interesting Tweet from Peter van Onselen (Sky/The Australian):

No one should think that Chris Evans will be the only resignation from cabinet in the next 24 hours...I assure you.
