Clive and Jacqui,
as a CONSTITUTIONALIST my concern is always first of all the true 20
meaning and application of the constitution.
HANSARD 17-3-1898 Constitution Convention Debates (Official Record of the Debates of the National
Australasian Convention)
QUOTE Mr. DEAKIN.-
What a charter of liberty is embraced within this Bill-of political liberty and religious liberty-the 25
liberty and the means to achieve all to which men in these days can reasonably aspire. A charter of
liberty is enshrined in this Constitution, which is also a charter of peace-of peace, order, and good
government for the whole of the peoples whom it will embrace and unite.

Mr. SYMON (South Australia).- We who are assembled in this Convention are about to commit to the
people of Australia a new charter of union and liberty; we are about to commit this new Magna Charta
for their acceptance and confirmation, and I can conceive of nothing of greater magnitude in the whole 35
history of the peoples of the world than this question upon which we are about to invite the peoples of
Australia to vote. The Great Charter was wrung by the barons of England from a reluctant king. This new
charter is to be given by the people of Australia to themselves.

As such, I have no issue with anyone to use his political rights to criticise any country. Indeed I

However, I do view that exercising once freedom of speech one must not make inappropriate or

Much has been argued ab out what is seem to be the back peddling by Mr Tony Abbott about
amending Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act, but there are 2 issues with this. Firstly
Mr Tony Abbott might be Prime Minister but he cannot overrule a responsible Minister in
relevant portfolio. Also, quitter frankly I couldnt care less about what the Racial Discrimination
Act purports to stand for because it cannot override my constitutional rights. The Framers of the 50

Constitution specifically prohibited the Commonwealth of Australia to have any race legislation
that is against the general community and clearly by this the purported Racial Discrimination Act
Is a backdoor attempt to legislate that specifically is prohibited by Subsection 5t1(xxvi).

Hansard 31-3-1891 Constitution Convention Debates 5
QUOTE Sir SAMUEL GRIFFITH:
The exercise within the commonwealth, at the request or with the concurrence of the parliaments of all the
states concerned, of any legislative powers with respect to the affairs of the territory of the
commonwealth, or any part of it, which can at the date of the establishment of this constitution be exercised
only by the Parliament of the United Kingdom or by the Federal Council of Australasia, but always subject 10
to the provisions of this constitution.
We are aware, sir, that there are many things now upon which the legislatures and governments of the
several Australian colonies may agree, and upon which they may desire to see a law established; but we are
obliged, if we want that law made, to go to the Parliament of the United Kingdom, and ask them to be good
enough to make the law for us; and when it is made we will obey it. I contend, for myself, as I have had an 15
opportunity of saying before, that after the federal parliament is established anything which the legislatures of
Australia want done in the way of legislation should be done within Australia, and then parliament of the
commonwealth should have that power. It is not proposed by this provision to enable the parliament of
the commonwealth to interfere with the state legislatures; but only, when the state legislatures agree in
requesting such legislation, to pass it, so that there shall be no longer any necessity to have recourse to a 20
parliament beyond our own shores when once this constitution has been passed by the Parliament of
the United Kingdom. With respect to these subjects, it is not proposed to give the parliament of the
commonwealth exclusive jurisdiction; they will have paramount jurisdiction; but it is proposed that, until they
exercise those powers, the existing laws shall remain [start page 525] in force, and that, until they choose to
make laws to the contrary, the state legislatures may go on exercising their existing powers. It is only when 25
the federal parliament comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to make laws on those matters that
the powers of the states will be excluded, and then only to the extent to which the federal legislature
chooses to exercise its functions. In addition to the powers to be exercised in that way, not interfering with
the existing rights of states until the federal legislature thinks it necessary to do so, it is proposed to give some
exclusive powers to the legislature of the commonwealth. One of them is to deal with the affairs of people 30
of any race with respect to whom it is deemed necessary to make special laws not applicable to the
general community; but so that this power shall not extend to authorise legislation with respect to the
aboriginal native race in Australia and the Maori race in New Zealand.

Mr. BARTON.-We are going to suggest that it should read as follows:-
the people of any race for whom it is deemed necessary to make any laws not applicable to the general
community; but so that this power shall not extend to authorize legislation with respect to the affairs of 40
the aboriginal race in any state.
Mr. ISAACS.-My observations were extended much further than that. The term general community" I
understand to mean the general community of the whole Commonwealth. If it means the general
community of the whole Commonwealth, I do not see the meaning of saying that the Parliament of the
Commonwealth shall have the exclusive authority to do that, because any single state would have the right to 45
do it under any circumstances. If it means less than that-if it means the general community of a state-I do not
see why it should not be left to the state. We should be placed in a very awkward position indeed if any
particular state is forbidden to pass any distinctive legislation in certain well-known instances. For instance, if
Victoria should choose to enact that Afghans shall only get hawkers' licences under certain conditions which
are not [start page 228] applicable to Europeans she may be debarred by this sub-section from doing so. I do 50
not know how it will affect our factory law in regard to the Chinese which does not operate beyond the
confines of Victoria at all.
Sir EDWARD BRADDON.-Why single out the Afghans?
Mr. ISAACS.-If any other race possess the same characteristic as the Afghans I will put them in the same
class. At all events, the expression general community" means the whole community of the Commonwealth. I 55

do not think that this has any application. If it is to have any application at all, it seems to me to be intended to
debar the state from passing legislation-necessary legislation, but purely confined to that state. I do not think
that that sub-section ought to be there at all if that is the meaning of it.
Mr. BARTON (New South Wales).-I think the original intention of this sub-section was to deal with
the affairs of such persons of other races-what are generally called inferior races, though I do not know 5
with how much warrant sometimes-who may be in the Commonwealth at the time it is brought into
existence, or who may under the laws of the Commonwealth regulating aliens come into it. We have
made the dealing with aliens, which includes a certain degree of coloured immigration, a power of the
Commonwealth, and we have made the dealing with immigration a power of the Commonwealth, so
that all those of the races who come into the community after the establishment of the Commonwealth 10
will not only enter subject to laws made in respect to their immigration, but will remain subject to any
laws which the Commonwealth may specially devise for them. There is no reason why the Commonwealth
should not have power to devise such laws.
Sir GEORGE TURNER.-An exclusive power?
Mr. BARTON.-It ought to have an exclusive power to devise such laws. 15
Sir GEORGE TURNER.-If it does not exercise it can the state exercise it?
Mr. BARTON.-Once the Commonwealth legislates with reference to the question of aliens and
immigration, its legislation displaces the state law.

Mr. BARTON: That is a slip which was made at the last moment, and it should read "States Assembly." I 20
will propose in Committee that that should be altered. Now, I will pass over such formal matters as the
election of the President and the Speaker of either House, the disqualification clauses, and so on, and come to
a matter which may be as important as to some it will be interesting, of course, in this Chamber. That is a
provision relating to both Houses, which is that, until the Parliament otherwise provides, each member
of either House of the Federal Parliament shall receive an allowance for his services of 400 a year, to 25
be reckoned from the day on which he takes his seat. This is a matter which does not require much
discussion at my hands. There will be here, as elsewhere, two opinions upon the question of payment of
members. While I myself may have seen some events which have caused me not to be so fond of the
operation of that principle as I once was-thinking that that which is apparently logical in reason will always
work out with success in legislation-still, I think there are circumstances which will be taken into 30
consideration by hon. members which make this a different question from the question of payment of
members in the provincial Parliaments. There are difficulties which have to be considered. There is the
difficulty of there being only the one Parliament and seat of Government to govern the whole of the three
million square miles of territory, and the difficulty of attending that Parliament will be infinitely greater than
that involved in members attending the Parliaments of their own colonies. Inasmuch as the members of the 35
Federal Parliament will, without intermission, have to be in attendance for three or four months each
Session, I think the question whether they should be entitled to receive some allowance becomes a
much more serious question than it is in regard to the provincial Legislatures. Many of those who are
not much enamoured of the subject in regard to the provincial Parliaments may have a very different opinion
in regard to the Federal Parliament. As for me, I may say I am prepared to accept the principle as it applies to 40
the Federal Parliament. One of [start page 439] the most important clauses of the Bill, as it is one of the
longest, will be found on page 11. It is clause 50, and it relates to the powers of the Parliament. Hon.
members will have a fairly good recollection of what was in the Bill of 1891 under this heading. The
legislative powers of the Parliament-all these sub-sections must be read as being powers not to be exercised
by the Parliament at once unless in some other part of the Bill power for their immediate exercise is given-are 45
only to be exercised by the passage of federal laws. The alterations made in that clause are not very
numerous, but still they ought to be stated.

Mr. BARTON (New South Wales).-No, there would be no prohibition in that respect. The offices of
Speaker and Chairman of Committees are not offices of profit under the Crown. They are parliamentary
offices, and Parliament has always retained a power over its own Estimates to the extent that really the 55
Speaker and President of the local Chambers have always exercised a right to submit their own Estimates, and
those Estimates, as a rule, as far as I know in practice in my own colony, are altogether untouched by the
Government of the day. Now, these are political offices, but not offices of profit under the Crown. I think that
that is the principle that Parliament has always asserted in England and elsewhere. As to the word "person,"

word "corporation" shall be included.
Mr. HIGGINS (Victoria).-If a man agrees to get paid for services done in Parliament, or for the
Commonwealth, and if he does the work, and, having done the work, he resigns, is there no penalty? Is there
no punishment in such a case for a man who guarantees that he will use his position in Parliament in order to 5
make money, and, having made it, resigns!
Mr. BARTON (New South Wales).-No; and there is a reason for that. If I recollect correctly there was
some provision in the Bill in Adelaide in that respect, but that provision was omitted in the sitting of the
Convention at Sydney as a matter [start page 2449] of policy. Mr. O'Connor suggests that it is quite probable
that in such a case an action would lie at common law. However that may be, the policy of inserting such a 10
provision was reversed in Sydney, and therefore the Drafting Committee could not frame any proposal to that
effect.

For example where it relates to Mr Joe Hockey to claim overnight accommodation while staying 15
overnight as a property reportedly owned by himself, his wife and his father ought to be
considered theft from Consolidated Revenue Funds. After all when he travels abroad on official
business he has as I understand it his wife traveling with him at cost of Consolidated Revenue
Funds and then clearly it would be absolute absurd that for some his wife is relevant while for
other issues she is not. Indeed, I question the reported involvement of his real estate agent father 20
to obtain the sale with allegedly concealing he was a real estate agent and his involvement as a
real estate agent which may be deemed INSIDER TRADING. In my view this should have been
investigated and if the involvement of Mr Joe Hockey as a member of parliament can be deemed
to have been inappropriate conduct that the House of Representatives should consider his ability
to remain a Member of Parliament. The Framers of the constitution held that a minister of the 25
Crown couldnt claim both a salary as a minister and also an allowance as a Member of
Parliament and as such the question is then if Mr Joe Hockey as a Minister has nevertheless
been claiming allowances for staying overnight in Canberra while already receiving a salary as
a Minister. The same applies to other former and current Members of Parliament!

Mr. A. FORREST: I am sure that the colony which I have the honor to represent will object most
strongly to pay its members anything like 500 a year. At the present time we have no payment of
members, nor are we likely to have it in Western Australia, and if we allow this amount to stand in the
clause we shall find that the local parliament will move in that direction. The colony is not in a position
to pay any large sum as an allowance to its members, and I protest most strongly against this Convention in 5
any way pledging the local parliaments to the payment-of 500 per annum to members [start page 655] to
attend the senate sitting in Sydney or Melbourne. I am certain that in our colony we can get men to come
for a far less sum than that; in fact, I believe we can get men to come without payment at all. It has
been a principle of our Parliament for many years, and will be, I hope, for years to come, that members
shall have that amount of good feeling towards their country that they will not ask the country to pay 10
their expenses. I trust, therefore, that the Committee will leave it to the different state, legislatures to arrange
for the payment of their members.

QUOTE Captain RUSSELL:
It is not necessary that I should now go into details as to what the business of the senate may or may not be;
but so soon as Australasia develops into a nation, so soon as it becomes a power having dealings with foreign 20
nations, I maintain that the system of turning out governments upon some small question I will not say
of public policy, but some very small question, the continual shuffling of the cards, the ejectment of
men from office owing to no failure of duty on their part, will become a very great inconvenience.
When we begin to have ambassadors, or something similar to ambassadors, negotiating with foreign
countries, when we have an agent-general representing us in England, I venture to [start page 66] say 25
that the ejectment of ministers from office continually and perpetually without any good reason at all
will interfere very materially indeed with what I may term the foreign policy of Australasia; and,
therefore, we ought by some means or other to endeavour to put a check upon the system of the
ejectment of ministers from office without reason, thereby curtailing the benefits which they could
confer on the united colonies, and also interfering materially with the foreign policy of Australasia. 30

suggest to the hon. member in charge of the bill that the wording is not, I think, the best that could be 40

If hon. members will take the opportunity of looking at the laws in the several colonies, with reference to the
payment of members, they will find that a series of provisions ought to be inserted in the bill which are not
inserted. If they look at the New South Wales act, they will find provisions which take into consideration the
salaries that are paid to ministers, to officials, and so on. Some provision is required in order to guard against
officials being paid double. When a member of parliament becomes a minister of the [start page 654] 5
Crown, the amount he was previously paid as member of parliament lapses. There is no provision of that
kind in the clauses of this bill. It is not at present contemplated in this bill to make any other provision than
the bald provision already made. Surely it is not contemplated that in the event of a member of
parliament who was being paid 500 a year accepting office, he is to receive his salary as a minister of
the Crown plus his salary as a member of parliament. We have to consider these questions in a rational 10
manner; and to settle a matter of this kind without consideration is not likely to commend it to our own
judgment, and certainly not to the judgment of the public.
Sir SAMUEL GRIFFITH: I certainly think that we have done as much work as we are likely to do well
to-day, and I doubt very much whether the Committee is prepared to give proper attention to further work to-
night. I should like to say a word or two in reference to what the hon. member, Mr. Gillies, has stated in 15
regard to the absence of provision on matters of detail. The omission was intentional so far as the drafting
committee was concerned, because we thought it was not our business to encumber the constitution
with matters of detail. One of the first things to be done by the parliament of the commonwealth in its first
session would be to settle the salaries of ministers, and a great number of other matters of that kind. We have,
therefore, given them power to deal with this subject. We did not think it necessary to make this in an sense a 20
payment of members bill. We lay down, however, the principle that they, are to receive an annual allowance
for their services, and we thought that it should start in the first instance at 500.
Motion agreed to; progress reported.

What therefore must be clear is that a Member of parliament is to receive an allowance to
compensate towards ,loss of income and cost to attend to the parliament, which I view cannot be
deemed to have applied to such extend if Mr Joe Hockey was with his wife owners to a property 50
in Canberra. And, when the election was called all Members of Parliament, who belonged to the
House of Representatives from that moment no longer were Members of Parliament and as such
would have continued unlawfully using their parliamentarian email addresses.

Ministers of the Crown who are to be political non-active as they are not commissioned to 5
conduct department for their party members but for the whole of the Commonwealth of
Australia. Prior to Mr John Howard losing the seat in the 2007 federal election reportedly
Ministers were gathering in a hotel as cost of Consolidated Revenue funds seeking to oust Mr
John Howard as Prime Minister. Again, in my view this was an unconstitutional expense.
10
Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act (The Constitution)
QUOTE
66 Salaries of Ministers
There shall be payable to the Queen, out of the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Commonwealth, for the
salaries of the Ministers of State, an annual sum which, until the Parliament otherwise provides, shall not 15
exceed twelve thousand pounds a year.
END QUOTE

As such, other than actual department related cost to be covered by the department it cannot be
deemed appropriate that a Minister can also charge to a department his/her political related cost, 20
being it mobile charges, travelling to support some political candidate, overnight related cost, etc.
We find however that both in federal and State level Ministers often are promoting political
candidates, such as Premier Denis Napthine did regarding a purported Frankston by-election
which never eventuated. Likewise Mr Daniel Andrews did this with his purported candidate
again without any by-election having been called. Likewise one find that Prime ministers and 25
other ministers often attend to political rallies for members of their political parties and charge
this to departments (Consolidated Revenue Funds) this even so it is unconstitutionally doing so.

QUOTE 30
Ethics Orientation for State Officials
Misuse of Public Funds
Public Funds may not be Used for Personal Purposes
The starting point for any analysis concerning the misuse of public funds begins with the
principle that public funds must be expended for an authorized public purpose. An 35
expenditure is made for a public purpose when its purpose is to benefit the public interest
rather than private individuals or private purposes.
Once a public purpose is established, the expenditure must still be authorized. A public
official possesses only those powers that are conferred by law, either expressly or
impliedly. 40
The California Constitution and a variety of state statutes make it clear that public funds
may not be expended for purposes that are primarily personal. Such expenditures are
neither for a public purpose nor are they authorized.
The prohibition against using public funds for personal purposes does not mean that no
personal benefit may result from an expenditure of public funds. 45
For example, the payment of a public employees salary confers a personal benefit on the
employee, but it is an appropriate expenditure of public funds because it is procuring the
services of the employee for public purposes.
The misuse of public funds occurs when the personal benefit conferred by a public
expenditure is not merely incidental. The term public funds is not limited to money, but 50
includes anything of value belonging to a public agency such as equipment, supplies,
compensated staff time, and use of telephones, computers, and fax machines and other
equipment and resources.

Examples of Misuse of Public Funds
1. In People v. Dillon, a city commissioner used official government discounts to
purchase items for himself and others. This was a misuse of public funds, even though
those receiving the discount paid for the items with personal funds. 5
2. In People v. Sperl, a county marshal furnished a deputy marshal and a county vehicle
to transport a political candidate, his staff and family.
3. In People v. Battin, a county supervisor used his county compensated staff to work on
his political campaign for Lieutenant Governor.
4. In People v. Harby, a city official used a city car, entrusted to him for use in 10
connection with official business, to take a pleasure trip from Los Angeles to Great
Falls, Montana and back.
Violations of the laws prohibiting misuse of public funds may subject the violator to criminal and
civil sanctions.
These penalties may include imprisonment for up to four years and a bar from holding office. 15
END QUOTE

As such, even using the government issued mobile, office staff, etc, would be unlawful. It could
be deemed to constitute than Office of Profit not being a Ministerial office of profit and as
such a disqualification for a Member of Parliament/Minister of the Crown to hold a seat in the 20
Parliament.

In my view the conduct of a Member of Parliament, so past Members of Parliament must not be
ignored and they should be charged if they actually defrauded the Commonwealth of Australia.
As shown in the constitution the Ministers salary is payable to the Queen, not from
Consolidated Revenue Funds directly into the bank account of a minister, and as such all and any
cost of Ministers, apart of direct departmental expenses, must be borne by the Minister from this 5
salary. If a Minister desires to have any other person not belonging to the department to travel
along on departmental business then that is for the ministers own cost. Also when it comes to
members of parliament they clearly can only claim reimbursement of cost for themselves holding
a seat in the Parliament and not for their entourage of family members or others strangers to the
Parliament. 10

Lex,

Before you tell others to pull their heads in and stop being naive, try reading the actual
Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900 and show me exactly within it where it
states that politicians can arbitrarily grant themselves various types of salaries, allowances, 30
benefits and public revenue funded superannuation, including a travel allowance.

In Section 48 of the federal constitution it states:

"48 Allowance to members 35
Until the Parliament otherwise provides, each senator and each member of the
House of Representatives shall receive an allowance of four hundred pounds a
year, to be reckoned from the day on which he takes his seat."

The Hansard Debates provide more detail on the subject of parliamentary 40
allowances yet the fact remains that there is no constitutional provision for yearly
salaries, superannuation and the many different allowances that politicians have
been generously granting themselves for decades. In effect politicians have been
stealing from and defrauding consolidated revenue. They are criminals.
45
It may be logical to provide politicians with certain allowances, but it would need to
be submitted to the Australian people for approval at referendum. If the federal
constitution does not grant the federal parliament power to expressly legislate on
particular subjects and issues, then it is prohibited from doing so. This is explained
in he commentary to Clause 5 which states: 50

Subject: Re: FW: Taxpayers footing bill on Treasurer Joe Hockey's $1.5 million Canberra house

Dear Brian (I think your surname is McDermott) and Jim 20
I too am upset at politicians' waste and rorts, but there are many far bigger stories than this
one.

On this one, I have to disagree with the attack on Joe Hockey.
WHY have journalists suddenly decided to attack Joe H? 25
-- these same things have been going on for years! - WHY didn't they make the same
criticism of Julia Gillard, Kevin Rudd etc?!
-- ALL of the 148 lower house MPs and ALL of the 74 Senators are claiming $270 per
night allowance for being away from home!!
and have been doing so for years, so why pick on Joe HOckey? 30
(there are 150 MPs and 76 Senators but two of each represent Canberra, so cannot claim
living-away-from-home allowance when attending Parliament House in Canberra)

I was 23 years in the Public Service and this is the way things go -- it is not corrupt, it is
commonsense. 35
When your job requires that you stay overnight away from home, then there are two ways
to pay somebody for the inconvenience and the expense:
(a) have them fill in a Form and attach all the receipts for hotel, meal, taxi etc for actual
expenses; just imagine how many clerks you would need to check all that paperwork.
OR 40
(b) just pay a daily rate for each overnight stay;
- therefore, if you are legitimately required to be away from home base for 2 nights, you
are entitled to be paid 2 times the standard daily allowance.
What you do with it is YOUR business!
45
- the standard daily allowance is reviewed each year and covers the cost of a good (not
luxury) motel, and the cost of a good (though not lavish) evening meal, and breakfast, and
a few dollars tossed in extra for taxi and telephone.
And so as a public servant, for 23 years, I was often required to go interstate, and I would
get the travel approved in advance - and then I could choose to stay in a hotel or overnight 50
with a friend or relative, thus making a small tax-free profit; there is no problem with that;
what are the other options?

Dont be silly - it is not unconstitutional
-- do you really mean to say that workers are NOT entitled to compensation for the
expense and inconvenience of being required to work a long distance from their homes??
I say, yes. 5
You say it is unconstitutional fraud.

So on this particular issue, 'pull your head in' and stop merely being a naive trumpet for
biassed journalists beating up a story they should have covered years ago.

JOE Hockey has defended his practice of claiming a $270-a-night taxpayer-funded
travelling allowance to stay in a Canberra house majority-owned by his wife on the
grounds that it is an entirely legitimate practice embraced by scores of Labor MPs.
The Treasurer has legitimately claimed $108,000 in travel allowance for 368 nights over
the past four years including many nights for parliamentary sitting weeks where he has 45

relevant national and territory laws.

The Treasurer has endured a storm of controversy over his comments that poor people did
not drive their cars very far this week. On Friday, he issued a grovelling apology for his
choice of words. 5

The Hockey familys astute purchase of the property in one of Canberras premier suburbs
is a well-known story in political circles. The home is worth an estimated $1.5 million
according to local real estate agents. But the Hockey clan picked up the property for a
song, purchasing it for just $320,000 in 1997. 10

In his recently published biography Not Your Average Joe, a former Liberal MP Ross
Cameron boasts that Mr Hockey struck a golden deal, spotting the house when driving in
Canberra.
15
The house was a piece of Hockey mercantile genius, Mr Cameron said.

Biographer Madonna King writes that the seller, who according to ACT lands title records
was called Robert Hamilton wanted no part in lawyers or agents.
20
So Joe, the lawyer, called his father, the real estate agent, who took the owner out for a
beer, Ms King writes.

The Hockeys scored the house for land value. Joes father didnt mention he was a real
estate agent, buying the property on behalf of his lawyer son. 25


Treasurer Joe Hockey and his wife Melissa Babbage

When it was purchased in 1997, Mr Hockey was listed on sales documents as owning 5 per 30
cent, his wife Melissa Babbage 61 per cent and his father Richard Hockey 34 per cent.

A group of Liberal MPs including Mr Cameron, Bob Baldwin and Defence Minister
Brendan Nelson then moved and paid rent to stay at the property. Dr Nelson famously
lived in the shed after his marriage broke up in return for paying half rent. Now employed 35
by the Australian War Memorial Dr Nelson sometimes still stays at the property.

The double dipping of MPs who claim travel allowance to stay in properties owned by
themselves or their wives and in some cases reduce their tax by negatively gearing
property is well-known in Canberra. In 2007, it was revealed Malcolm Turnbull, then 40
regarded as Australias richest MP, rented a house from his wife Lucy when in
Canberra. It was reported Mr Turnbull paid $10,000 a year to his wife under the
arrangement and claimed another $10 a night when she stayed in Canberra. In
response, Mr Turnbull said the story was a beat up.
45
Where I stay, whether I stay in expensive accommodation or cheap accommodation, in
my own apartment or an apartment belonging to my wife, a hotel or a serviced flat, is
immaterial, he told ABC television.

You get the same amount and where you stay is of no concern to the government.
Thats the way the system works.

In Canberra, MPs are not required to show a receipt to prove they stayed in a hotel 5
because the blanket $270 rate applies whether you stay in a hotel or a house owned by
yourself or another person.

Because of the rules, many MPs purchase property in Canberra to provide a base
during parliamentary sittings and use their travel allowance to pay off their 10
mortgage.

After the Sunday Telegraph inquired about Mr Hockeys house it was pointed out by the
government that more than a dozen Labor MPs own property in Canberra where they stay
during parliamentary sitting weeks and also claim travel allowance. 15

These MPs include Anthony Albanese, Warren Snowden, Tanya Plibersek has an
apartment in

Joel Fitzgibbon, Jim Chalmers, Mark Butler, Tony Burke and Doug Cameron. 20

Mark Butler has an apartment in Kingston.

Julia Gillard and Kevin Rudd also owned property in Canberra before they retired from
politics. 25

There must be some method, and we suggest that as a reasonable one. With respect to amendments of
the constitution, it is proposed that a law to amend the constitution must be passed by an absolute
majority of both the senate and the house of representatives; that, if that is done, the proposed
amendment must be submitted for the opinion of the people of the states to be expressed in conventions 30
elected for the purpose, and that then if the amendment is approved by a majority of the conventions
in the states it shall become law, subject of course to the Queen's power of disallowance. Otherwise the
constitution might be amended, and by a few words the commonwealth turned into a republic, which is
no part of the scheme proposed by this bill.
END QUOTE 35

In my view it would be appropriate for the Commonwealth of Australia to have the
Administrative Services set up an accommodation centre near the Parliament where one
wing is set aside for Ministers of the Crown, where they have for the time they are
Ministers a permanent overnight accommodation room as well as where official visitors 40
such as foreign Ministers and other dignitaries can stay overnight, all under protection of
the Australian federal Police with a underground tunnel connecting the wing to the
Parliament, for security reasons. Another wing to be providing overnight accommodation
for Members of Parliament when they are attending to Parliament for parliamentarian
business, and at other times the rooms can be hired out to people who may visit the 45
Parliament, such as groups of school students, at a nominal cost. This would make the
Parliament more accessible for students of faraway schools, who cannot afford the huge
cost of hotels, etc. This wing also be provided with secure underground tunnel to access the
Parliament but not connected to the other wings underground access. Avoid the need for
government vehicles or Members of Parliament having to go through the rain, etc, for the 50
short distance to the Parliament. The same could be done by state Parliaments! Avoiding
people like Mr Geoff Shaw being heckled to enter the (State) Parliament.

State Agency Participation in Ballot Measure Elections 10
There is another issue involving the misuse of public funds that does not concern the personal use of
public funds. This issue concerns the use of public funds in connection with ballot measure campaigns.
Following is a list of what well cover in this section.
Stanson v. Mott
Endorsements and Informational Materials 15
Improperly Using Public Funds may Trigger Fines
Using Public Funds and Ballot Measure Campaigns
The California Supreme Court case of Stanson v. Mott is the cornerstone case concerning the
expenditure of public funds in election campaigns.
In Stanson v. Mott, a private citizen sued the Director of the California Department of Parks and 20
Recreation, challenging the directors expenditure of Department funds to support passage of a bond act
appearing on a statewide ballot. The Supreme Court unanimously found that the director had acted
unlawfully, concluding that in the absence of clear and explicit legislative authorization, a public agency
may not expend public funds to promote a partisan position in an election campaign.
Stanson v. Mott 25
The Supreme Court wrote in Stanson: A fundamental precept of this nations democratic electoral
process is that the government may not take sides in election contests or bestow an unfair advantage on
one of several competing factions. A principal danger feared by our countrys founders lay in the
possibility that the holders of governmental authority would use official power improperly to perpetuate
themselves, or their allies, in office.... 30
The Supreme Court further wrote in Stanson ...The selective use of public funds in election campaigns,
of course, raises the specter of just such an improper distortion of the democratic electoral process.
Endorsements and Informational Materials: Subsequently, court cases have said that a
government agency may endorse a measure that is related to its expertise so long as it does not
expend funds to promote its passage. 35
Similarly, a government agency may draft legislation or a ballot measure related to its expertise,
but may not promote the passage of the measure in an election campaign.
Here is Jose Lopez discussing the findings in the Stanson case in regard to the agency participation in
ballot measure elections.
1. The Stanson Court also noted that if a state agency or department has authority to disseminate 40
information relating to its activities, it may spend funds to provide the public with a fair
presentation of relevant information.

2. The Court found that it would be contrary to the public interest to bar knowledgeable public
agencies from disclosing relevant information to the public, so long as such disclosure is full 45
and impartial and does not amount to improper campaign activity.

3. To be fair, a presentation must consider all important points and provide equal treatment to both
sides of the issue.
Improperly Using Public Funds may Trigger Fines: Improper use of public funds also may trigger fines 50
from the Fair Political Practices Commission for failing to report campaign contributions. In 1996,
Sacramento County paid a $10,000 fine to the Commission in connection with a utility bill insert explaining
the effect on the county of several ballot measures. The Commission ruled that the insert advocated a
position on the ballot measures and was not a neutral and fair presentation of the facts.

Let's Review
TRUE or FALSE: Expenditures made to benefit the public are permissible.
Answer: False. The expenditure must also be authorized to be permissible.
Evelyn is an agency secretary. She has just completed a long day and she wishes to make a few
telephone calls before she leaves her office to invite potential contributors to the incumbent 5
Governors campaign fundraising dinner. Since the people she will be calling frequently have
dealings with the state government on a variety of issues, may she charge these calls to the
state? Yes or No.
Answer: No. Evelyn may not charge the calls to the state as they are for personal
political purposes rather than for a public purpose. 10
Let's Review
Ramon is the director of a state department. He wishes to produce informational materials to answer
questions about the impact of a ballot measure. Select the situation in which it is permissible to expend
funds for this purpose.
a. The materials stop short of advocating a vote for or against the measure. 15

b. The materials do not make false statements.

c. The materials present a balanced description of the favorable and unfavorable impacts of the
measure. 20
Answer: c. The materials must present a balanced description of the favorable and unfavorable
impacts of the measure.
Remember These Points
Expenditures must be for a public purpose
Expenditures must be authorized 25
Public funds may not be expended for personal use
Information must be fairly presented
Violations bring criminal, civil and administrative sanction
END QUOTE
30
It must be clear that a speaker of the House charging people to attend a political function is
unlawful as it is using a public space of the parliament for political contributions. Likewise a
Minister being so to say a rent-a-Minister as to charge monies (for his political party or
otherwise) is an offence because the Minister is misusing/abusing his/her status as a Minister for
political purposes rather than for the general community while being paid for from the public 35
purse (through the Queen).

Joe Hockey sues Fairfax for defamation. Whos his legal adviser, Craig Thomson?
Treasure Joe Hockey is suing Fairfax Media for defamation and initiated proceedings today
in the Federal Court of Australia. To me it is clear political suicide but that is up to Joe
Hockey. It relates to front-page articles headlined Treasurer For Sale on May the 5th in
the The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, The Canberra Times and their online services. 10
The first part of the May 5th article in the SMH starts off:
Treasurer for sale: Joe Hockey offers privileged access
Treasurer Joe Hockey is offering privileged access to a select group including business
people and industry lobbyists in return for tens of thousands of dollars in donations to the
Liberal Party via a secretive fund-raising body whose activities are not fully disclosed to 15
election funding authorities.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption is probing Liberal fund-raising bodies
such as the Millennium Forum and questioning their influence on political favours in
NSW.
Mr Hockey offers access to one of the countrys highest political offices in return for 20
annual payments.
The donors are members of the North Sydney Forum, a campaign fundraising body run
by Mr Hockeys North Sydney Federal Electoral Conference (FEC). In return for annual
fees of up to $22,000, members are rewarded with VIP meetings with Mr Hockey, often
in private boardrooms. (Click here to read more) 25
Didnt the Liberals learn anything from the Craig Thomson defamation proceedings. If
Fairfax Media do not settle and I suspect they will not, then a lot of media attention is
going to be on Hockey and his financial dealings for a long time and most likely right up to
the next election. A lot of people see the dealings as being dodgy even if they are not
illegal. I cant and most people cannot afford a lazy $22,000 to get a meeting with Hockey 30
or most politicians for that matter.
Joe Hockey should have just forgot about it and moved on.
Maybe Hockey has had a rush of blood watching how well Australias number one perjurer
Kerry Stokes is doing in his lawsuit against me. If that is the case then it is a major mistake
because in a few weeks or so it will become obvious that perjury boy Stokes is not doing 35
well at all.
I checked the Federal Court website and Hockey is using the law firm Johnson Winter and
Slattery Lawyers and most likely Top Gun defamation lawyer Mark OBrien who is a
partner at the firm although it could be another lawyer there. I wonder if either party will
use the compulsive liar and Pop Gun defamation barrister Sandy Dawson. 40
It is interesting that Joe Hockey has chosen the Federal Court instead of the NSW Supreme
Court. It is possible that Fairfax Media will challenge on jurisdiction grounds as

defamation is not something that the Federal Court normally deals with and whether or not
they have jurisdiction has never been fully tested to my knowledge. I think the
choice might have something to do with Joe Hockey trying to avoid a jury trial, which
is fairly standard in the Supreme Court unlike the Federal Court which has never had a jury
trial. 5
I hope it does go to trail as it will give this site plenty of material. It is set down for a
directions hearing at 9.30am the 12th June in court room 21B before Justice Peter
Jacobson. Is Jacobson honest? No hes a grub and I know because Ive had dealings with
him but more on that next time.

I hope Joe is successful with his action. Despite what some people might think, the
majority of pollies of the Liberal persuasion have to fundraise continually via a local
committee to fund election campaigns. They do not have the luxury of skimming off union
funds to pay the high cost of running campaigns like I believe the Labor Party do. It is
usually left to enthusiastic local Liberal committees to organise raffles, auctions, dinners 15
and social events which trickle in the funds.
Maybe it is time for some proper rules to be drawn up whereby a recognised and legal fund
is established and monies dished out by that body as required and it may have to be
taxpayers money!

Mr G. H. Sc horel-Hlav ka O.W.B. May 20, 2014 at 8:31 pm #
As a CONSTITUTIONALIST I have addressed the issue of Ministers of the Crown to
charge for access to them and view this is an abuse of power/position. Ministers are not
appointed because they are members of a particular political party (albeit the convention is
they generally are drawn from the political party with the most Members of Parliament in 25
the House of Representatives, Ministers are commissioned to be advisors to the Governor-
General and on his behalf manage a Department for and on behalf of all Australians, not
just their own party members. they may have their political views but that must take second
place as the general community must be their primary focus even if this means to abandon
certain political views. 30

The donors are members of the North Sydney Forum, a campaign fundraising body run by Mr Hockey's North
Sydney Federal Electoral Conference (FEC). In return for annual fees of up to $22,000, members are
rewarded with "VIP" meetings with Mr Hockey, often in private boardrooms.
Advertisement 5
The North Sydney FEC officials who run the forum which is an incorporated entity of the Liberal Party say
its membership lists and therefore the identities of its donors are "confidential". Mr Hockey also says details of
who he is meeting and what is discussed are confidential.
What little public information is available reveals members of the forum include National Australia Bank as well
as the influential Financial Services Council, whose chief executive is former NSW Liberal leader John 10
Brogden.

The FSC's members, including financial advice and funds management firms, stand to benefit from the 15
changes to the Future of Financial Advice (FOFA) laws being considered by the federal government, which
would involve a winding back of consumer protections introduced by Labor.
The National Australia Bank would also benefit from the changes.
The chairman of the North Sydney Forum is John Hart, who is also the chief executive of Restaurant and
Catering Australia a hospitality industry lobby group whose members stand to benefit from a government- 20
ordered Productivity Commission review of the Fair Work Act that is expected to examine the issue of penalty
rates.
Mr Hart also sits on Prime Minister Tony Abbott's Business Advisory Council.
On Monday, Mr Abbott was asked if he was comfortable with Mr Hockey's fundraising activities during an
interview with Channel Nine. 25

Mr Abbott responded by saying while he had not read the article, "all political parties have to raise money".
"Typically, you raise money by having events where senior members of the party go and obviously they meet
people at these events," he said.
"The alternative to fund-raising in this time-honoured way, is taxpayer funding."
Mr Abbott said that in the context of a "very tough" budget, the idea that taxpayers should fund political parties 5
was "very, very odd".
When asked if there should be a federal ICAC, Mr Abbott said that he thought that Canberra had a "pretty
clean polity".
"The thing is that were going to keep the lobbyists out [of politics]. And the problem that ICAC is exposing is a
problem of lobbying, essentially its influence peddling . . . and were going to make sure that that has no place 10
whatsoever federally."
Australian Water Holdings
In March, it was revealed a former member of the North Sydney Forum was controversial infrastructure
company Australian Water Holdings (AWH), which has been linked to the family of corrupt former Labor
powerbroker Eddie Obeid and is under investigation by the ICAC over its attempts to win lucrative government 15
contracts.
When AWH's links to the Obeid family were revealed last year, the North Sydney FEC returned an $11,000
forum membership fee and AWH's membership of the forum was ended. In March, the North Sydney FEC
revealed it had returned another $22,000 in membership fees from AWH, whose former chairman is Liberal
Party senator and former assistant treasurer Arthur Sinodinos. 20
Senator Sinodinos stood aside as assistant treasurer in March, after giving evidence at the ICAC about AWH's
attempts to win a billion-dollar contract with the NSW government. Before that, he was responsible for
implementing the government's FOFA reforms.
During the three years AWH was a member of the forum, the company's chief executive was Liberal fund-
raiser and former lobbyist Nick Di Girolamo, whose gift of a $3000 bottle of Penfolds Grange Hermitage to 25
Barry O'Farrell shortly after his March 2011 election win led to his resignation as premier last month, after he
gave false evidence to the ICAC.
North Sydney Forum deputy chairman Robert Orrell said he was "sure" Mr Di Girolamo a close friend of
Eddie Obeid jnr, who was employed by AWH had attended private boardroom meetings with Mr Hockey.
However he was adamant Mr Obeid jnr did not attend any meetings. 30
The North Sydney Forum was established in May 2009, shortly after Mr Hockey became shadow treasurer in
February, by Joseph Carrozzi, managing partner at professional services firm PriceWaterhouseCoopers.
Mr Carrozzi is also chairman of the Italian Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Australia and was a board
member of the organisation when Mr Di Girolamo was its chairman.
He said he could not recall how AWH became a member of the North Sydney Forum but denied it was through 35
this link. He said the chamber was not a forum member.
Mr Carrozzi, who said he had known Mr Hockey for 20 years, said he was "honoured to be asked" to establish
the forum, which was "essentially there to provide a network and insight for small businesses".
"Members get an opportunity to sit down and chat with Joe. We've had other ministers, state and federal,
participate as well." 40
Mr Carrozzi said NSW Transport Minister Gladys Berejiklian and Premier Mike Baird until recently treasurer
had participated in the forum's functions for members.
Past forum members include wholesale distribution and marketing firm Metcash and business services group
Servcorp, founded by long-time Liberal Party supporter Alf Moufarrige.
In 2008, it emerged Mr Moufarrige had given former treasurer Peter Costello six bottles of Penfolds Grange 45
reportedly worth about $3000 in total as a thank you gift for opening a Melbourne building.

Mr Carrozzi said Mr Hockey "sits down regularly" with members of the forum. Mr Di Girolamo "may have
attended one or two" meetings with Mr Hockey but Mr Carrozzi stressed "he was certainly not a regular
attendee".
He said Mr Obeid jnr was "certainly not at any meetings I attended with Mr Hockey".
Mr Orrell said the forum had had about 12 lunches each year, "typically in a members' boardroom". 5
"It's genuinely an exchange of information," he said. "Joe just goes around the table and talks about issues."
The North Sydney Forum membership structure offers "full membership" for an annual fee of $5500 for which
members are entitled to five boardroom events.
The fee for corporate and business members is $11,000 which offers an extra "VIP boardroom function" while
private patrons paying $22,000 enjoy the additional benefit of "10 boardroom events". 10
Mr Orrell said money raised by the forum was often distributed to Liberal Party marginal seats.
However, the forum does not lodge its own disclosures to the NSW Election Funding Authority.
In its disclosures, the NSW division of the Liberal Party declares membership fees regarded as donations for
the purposes of the election funding act but does not state they are for the North Sydney Forum. This
practice masks who is donating directly to the North Sydney Forum and the identity of its members. 15
A spokesman for the NSW Election Funding Authority said: "There is no record of the North Sydney Forum in
the EFA system."
Occasionally members name the North Sydney Forum in their disclosures to the Election Funding Authority
but there is no requirement to do so.
The structure of the North Sydney Forum is based on that of similar vehicles established by other Liberal MPs, 20
such as the Wentworth Forum which was set up for Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull in August
2007.
The Wentworth Forum was established by former federal Liberal Party treasurer Michael Yabsley to raise
funds for Mr Turnbull's re-election to the eastern suburbs seat of Wentworth following a redistribution in 2004
which made it a less safe Liberal seat. 25
It operated between August 2007 and late 2009 for six months when Mr Turnbull was environment minister
but primarily while he was shadow treasurer and then opposition leader and gave members access to
exclusive functions he attended. It also had a sliding scale of membership fees from $5500 to $55,000.
The Wentworth Forum was based on the Millennium Forum, the Liberal Party's main fund-raising body, which
was established by Mr Yabsley in the late 1990s to replicate corporate fundraising practices. 30
Millennium Forum members are regularly invited to events hosted by NSW and federal ministers.
Last week the chairman of the Millennium Forum, Paul Nicolaou, resigned after ICAC heard allegations it and
another entity, the Free Enterprise Foundation, were used to disguise payments from prohibited donors
including property donors to bankroll the Liberal Party's campaign to win the 2011 NSW election.
Detailed questions were sent to the NSW Liberal party about the North Sydney Forum, how it operates and 35
why its membership is not disclosed to authorities. A spokeswoman responded that the North Sydney Forum
was "covered by the Australian Electoral Act with donations disclosed to the AEC in accordance with the law
by the NSW division of the party and funds are used for the work of the party".
Questions were also sent to Mr Hockey inviting him to disclose details of his meetings with members. A
spokeswoman responded: "Questions about the function and administration of the North Sydney Forum 40
should be addressed to them. The Treasurer's diary is confidential."

DON'T SHOOT JOE HOCKEY 20

The poor bastard has inherited a mess of unprecedented proportions that is going to take
a long Liberal tenure to sort out and return to some normality - if at all.

The sad reality is that Australia is made up of three types of people. Workers, bludgers 25
and pensioners. And is desperately trying to claw every dollar they can back from this
hurting system... the magnifying glass has momentarily paused above the latter category.
Which is sad. We expect the pensioners to be looked after in this country. We don't want
to see elderly people homeless and destitute in Australia . And unlike Italy and Japan - we
don't have a culture of always looking after our senior citizens. 30

I have an immediate idea that could claw back quite a few millions. Means test the
freaking politicians for a start! Let's take a few luminaries who really don't deserve the
largesse we give them.
35
The wastage in this area alone is horrendous and is a massive burden on the taxpayer.
Moreover, is it justified? Do we get any value for money? The latest revelation that both
Rudd and Gillard get a $200,000 salary for the rest of their natural lives plus enormous
travel allowances, office accommodation and staffing costs is an insult given that neither
was poor to start with and both now have 'jobs'. They are young enough to work. Younger 40
than me! If I have to keep working until I am 70 plus, why don't they?

A study in 2010 by the Daily Telegraph revealed that Mr Rudd, at 52, a young ex-
prime minister, will receive well in excess of $20 million worth of allowances if he
lives to 85. This is despite the fact he had served just 2 1/2 years as P.M. at that 45
point. This of course has altered even more dramatically with his additional tenure.

As the Framers of the Constitution made clear only one person could be paid regarding holding a
seat! As such the moment a person seize to be a Member of Parliament that is the end of any
financial benefits as to allowance.
And, as for a Minister of the Crown they never were employed with the Commonwealth of
Australia but are commissioned by the Governor-General in employment of the Queen and as 25
such the moment they leave the services of Her Majesty the queen that is the end of any
provisions of salary and the constitution doesnt allow any other form of payments. Hence
under common law (as the Framers of the Constitution indicated) each and every Member of
Parliament/ Minister of the Crown should be charged for defrauding the Consolidated Revenue

A nation of lifters: Splendour in the Grass 2014 (Photograph: Jason O'Brien) Source:
News Corp Australia
JOE Hockey has vowed to end the age of entitlement, but he may need to
start a little bit closer to home. Public servants are splashing some truly 5
ridiculous cash.
According to modelling by the National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling at the
University of Canberra, Australian families will contribute an average of $3424 in net
tax this year paying $12,935 in income tax but receiving $9515 in benefits.
REVEALED: LABORS $73 BILLION NBN BUNGLE 10
But whether youre one of Mr Hockeys so-called leaners or lifters, if you pay any form
of income tax, its reasonable to expect your money is being treated with the respect it
deserves.
It probably wont surprise you that thats not always the case.
Conservative policy think-tank the Centre for Independent Studies has been crusading 15
against wasteful government spending for some time through its long-running and
highly amusing WasteWatch series.
WasteWatch was started as a lighthearted complement to the Centres more serious
research, says CIS policy analyst Helen Andrews. Its a bit more fun than your
average policy analysis, but theres a real purpose to it, too. 20
Lots of people have a habit of referring offhandedly to government waste without
specifying exactly what theyre talking about. Its hard to be persuasive when youre
being vague. WasteWatch aims to give people a clear picture of what kinds of waste
are going on all the time.
Here are some of the more eyebrow-raising examples of taxpayer-funded public 25
service largesse over the years.
SPLENDOUR IN THE GRASS: $81,000

In 2011, the Australian Bureau of Statistics gave $44,000 to the music festival. In
2013, the Australian Electoral Commission chipped in $37,000. The hugely popular
annual event makes around $5 million in profit each year, with the help of sponsorship
deals from the likes of Smirnoff, Contiki, Spotify and, apparently, the Australian
taxpayer. (Just dont mention the sniffer dogs.) 5
But in the interest of context, 2013 was an election year and the AEC was probably
trying to get those fickle youngsters to vote, so they might get a pass on that one.
FOXTEL SUBSCRIPTIONS: $123,101
According to the CIS, the Department of Infrastructure and Transport forks out
$32,000 a year for Foxtel subscriptions. Not to be outdone are the Attorney Generals 10
Department ($52,446), the Defence Materiel Organisation ($25,000) and the
Department of Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs
($13,655). To be fair, its not as if the government runs a 24-hour news channel.
DESIGNER CHAIRS: $98,000
In April this year, Geoscience Australia spent $45,000 on designer meeting room 15
chairs. Meanwhile, the Clean Energy Regulator staged a sit-in of its own with $53,000
worth of meeting room chairs. They could both perhaps have taken a leaf out of
Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moores book and opted for milk crates instead.
YOGA CLASSES: $20,000
Its fair to say MPs and public servants at Parliament House lead a pretty stressful 20
lifestyle but then again, thats why we pay them so well. So it might surprise some
to learn that in 2013, the government forked out $10,000 to provide free yoga classes
on Capital Hill, following a similar scheme the year before. Its unclear whether the
budget has stretched to yoga again this year although wed say cabinet ministers
are already contorting themselves enough as they negotiate with the crossbenchers in 25
the Senate.
PERIODIC COFFEE TABLE: $14,000
Back when it was still the Department of Industry, Innovation, Climate Change,
Science, Research and Tertiary Education, under the auspices of Labor Senator Kim
Carr, the DIICCSRTE (as it was known to its friends) spent a whopping $14,000 on a 30
coffee table. But not just any coffee table created by UK-based company RGB
Research, this coffee table has samples of every single element in the periodic table
encased in acrylic. Fancy.

COFFEE MACHINES: $135,000
Of course, a coffee table would be nothing without a cup of coffee on top. To that end,
in 2012, DIICCSRTE (then just the humble Department of Industry) spent $75,000 on
the provision of coffee machines made by ultra high-end manufacturer Jura
later signing a $45,000 contract for the maintenance of the machines. The Australian 5
Securities and Investments Commission also got in on the action, with $15,000 going
towards an espresso machine.
CONFERENCE TABLE: $60,000
The G20 meeting of global finance ministers is taking place in Brisbane later this year,
and of course all those important delegates need a place to sit and delegate. 10
Apparently Ikea was all out of tables, because the Federal Government opted to spend
$36,000 on a specially designed table. As the CIS puts it, Brisbane must be
experiencing a table shortage, because the contract went to a company based in
Canberra. That means the government is forking out an extra $26,000 to ship the
table up to the Sunshine State. 15
Now if youll excuse us, we need to sit down.
On a regular chair, at a regular table.

So far I have been absent from criticising Senator Jacqui Lambie, as I view one has to show 20
some tolerance however reportedly she started:

While the above statement as on its own may not be an issue, however where a Member of 30
Parliament associates such a statement to a particular nation as to reportedly refer to Chinese
mongrels referred to the Chinese people (of China) and that the might consider invading
Australia then I view this may be a very serious issue to if such a Senator is fit and proper to
remain a Senator.

Where Mr Clive Palmer reportedly referred to the Chinese people (of China) as Chinese
mongrels then I view his conduct as a Member of Parliament should be questioned if he is a fit
and proper person and should remain a Member of the House of Representatives. 45

In my view both Mr Clive Palmer and Senator Jacqui Lambie have placed the Parliament in
disrepute and must face consequences for this. In my view this is not a Section 18C Racial
Discrimination Act issue, as again I view it is an unconstitutional provisions, but rather that one
must expect from members of parliament that they control their expressions what may be 50
appropriate while representing their constituents. It must be clear that what could be deemed

insulting a friendly nation is unwarranted and contrary to what could be expected from a
Member of Parliament, unless they have specific prove to base their allegations upon. A Member
of Parliament may have obtained information of say a pending invasion contemplated by a
particular nation and then well entitled to warn the general community about this, however if no
such specific details are known but are so to say mere throw away lines then I view the Member 5
of Parliament may need to explain to the Parliament why he/she ought to remain a Member of
Parliament in the circumstances.
Likewise, I view those who are so to say robbing the Consolidated Revenue Funds and those
knowingly allowing this to eventuate all should be removed from the Parliament as have shown
they are in it for themselves and not at all to serve the general public interest. 10
It should be clear that Mr Joe Hockeys claim of age of entitlement being over is not
corresponding with his own conduct, at least not in my view as a CONSTITUTIONALIST. In
my view he is nothing less than a criminal! A person I view we do better to remove from office.
His insults to people who may not have a motor vehicle or cant afford it indicates how he is out
of touch with the general community and a gross insult to the general community also. If he like 15
Mr Clive Palmer and Senator Jacqui Lambie cannot hold his tong and/or cannot manage to act
appropriately in all relevant circumstances they we are better off to have them removed as
Members of Parliament. And likewise any other Member of Parliament who disregard his/her
laid up duties as such.
20
In fact I view that for example in the State Parliament of Victoria the President of the Legislative
Council and the Premier of Victoria are ignoring to act against 1 too many Member of the
Legislative Council being in an Office of Profit in violation of the Victorian Constitution Act
1975. As this act places a maximum of members of the legislative Council and they must be
Ministers. In my view ICAC (The Independent Commission Against Corruption) should 25
investigate such matters to every extent so that finally we may get some decency within our
(State/Federal) Parliaments.

I receive from various political parties, including Liberal and Labor parties, request to support
their campaigns and to provide financial contributions, but one have to ask why on earth should I 30
ever do so when they do not even bother to address the constitutional issues I have been
canvassing for so long?

Many of us suspected it, and the Budget confirmed our worst fears: having lied to win
power, the new Governments real agenda was to create an unfair Australia for the
privileged few.
Thats not the Australia I believe in. Its not the Australia Labor believes in. And I know
its not the Australia you believe in. 5
And over these past 100 days, you have proved how hard youre willing to fight
Abbotts unfair Budget: over 113,000 of you have signed petitions, from the GP tax to
education cuts to ABC funding, and thousands attended rallies against the Budget.
Volunteers have made over 38,000 phone calls to voters informing them of the damage the
Budget would wreak, and you have donated tens of thousands of dollars to air TV ads 10
doing the same.
Thank you.
We still have much to do if we are to stand in the way of Tony Abbotts backward vision
for an Australia that destroys the fair go, but thanks largely to your efforts we are already
well under way. 15
It has been a truly amazing community response. And a sorely needed one: if we do
nothing when our schools and hospitals are slashed, and our pensioners, job seekers,
students and parents are cast aside, then the whole nation suffers.
When we stand together, when we speak with one voice, we can defeat this Governments
extreme ideological agenda. 20
Our fight has only just begun. As long as Tony Abbott, Joe Hockey, Chris Pyne and their
colleagues are in power, our fundamental Australian values are under threat.
We know that together, we can stare down this Budget. Thanks for helping prove that,
and I look forward to fighting the good fight with you as we continue into the next 100
days. 25
Thanks for standing with me on this,
Bill

action he contemplates to stop the rorting, fraudulent conduct of Members of Parliament and/or
former Members of Parliament as well as that of public servants.
