[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 285399, member: 1991"] The fun thing here - they tried to claim "corruption!" but the party screaming the loudest are the ones now with egg on their faces. And the only possible corrupotion seems to be the public servant who was trying to provide some salacious material which he was SURE would exist, if only tey looked hard enough - but when they looked hard enough, all that existed was the faked one, primed to expose what had to be there (but wasn't). It's sort of like saying, "Let's accuse these guys of playing around - after all, everybody does it." Only they hadn't. For once. Perhaps because the guys making the accusations (who until recently had a very long time in power) have been in the habit of doing exactly these sort of favours? At least, that is what some people have been saying. At least parliament has risen for a few weeks (school holidays coming up) so before they all come back and start throwing more public mud at each other under parliamentary privilege, the Federal POlice will have hopefully completed their investigation and the fight will be short and sweet.
