royal commission into the NSW liberal party ?
Not to worry LL. Wait until a royal commission into Unions turns up more corruption in the LNP.

Meanwhile that very much defended (here) union loving union funds spending upon "union matters" convicted criminal Thomson, is about to be sentenced. I do not think he will receive hard time, he would probably enjoy that.

he's a minor offender by comparison , regardless of that you seem obsessed with him. a lot of the defense of thomson (here , me) had that in mind when the claims that he stole half a million or so when it was $6200 dollars. his election campaign was funded by the hsu you say ? yes i know that. sinodinis and co donated how much to the LNP to acquire a senate spot ?

That will do as a resolution for the moment and for the record monman I have referred to Thompson as a grub on more than a handful of occasions.

"he's a minor offender by comparison , regardless of that you seem obsessed with him." (Thomson)
Actually LL he is a convicted felon who was much defended by some here, and in law a minor offence is called a misdemeanor or summary offence, Thomson was prosecuted and found guilty of criminal offences.
LL" .... a lot of the defense of thomson (here , me) had that in mind when the claims that he stole half a million or so when it was $6200 dollars."
Strange that LL,($6200), as Thompson's lawyer Greg James, QC, recently stated:
March 19, 2014
Mr James said Thomson had agreed to repay the HSU the $24,538.42 he embezzled with union-issued credit cards
Anybody allegedly guilty of corruption or fraud should certainly be held accountable within the law, so far Sinodinos is "guilty" of "that he would have ''enjoyed a $10 or $20 million payday if Australian Water had won a lucrative government contract." Note the "would have" and "if" and that the contract did not eventuate. Reminds me a little of: "if ifs and ands were pots and pans, there'd be no work for tinkers' hands"
The ICAC will examine all aspects of the events free from the baying of a (biased?) lynch mob, and eventually produce results based upon facts. Meanwhile remember Thompson is a convicted criminal, Sinodinos only "would have been, if".
grist for the pink millers.

i know he took out a mortgage to pay that amount back, but he was convicted on $6200 worth in terms of his case. why the difference i'm unsure.. it certainly looks petty when viewed in light of Str Sinodinos likely payday of $10-20 million though doesn't it ?

"he was convicted on $6200 worth in terms of his case."
I do wonder at your "sources " LL
SBS
Magistrate Charlie Rozencwajg last month found " The former Dobell MP guilty of 65 charges of obtaining property by deception and theft, after he spent more than $5500 on escorts and made cash withdrawals worth $6250 between 2002 and 2008.
He also found Thomson had spent $1981 of union money after he had taken his seat in parliament.
"it certainly looks petty when viewed in light of Str Sinodinos likely payday of $10-20 million though doesn't it"
Likely payday???? he allegedly stood to gain then, but is no longer associated with AWH so how can he have a "likely payday"
Petty? a guilty finding against Thoms on criminal charges.
