Does Barnaby Joyce who bought 'heartbreak' land in NSW and attended the OS wedding of the Granddaughter of Gina's business partner at a time Gina was in the process of doing a big business deal ?

Barnaby Joyce yet to sell land next to coal seam gas exploration site

Wed 8th January

'Santos has told me they are not exploring for gas on my place – they are on the place next door,' says agriculture minist

The agriculture minister, Barnaby Joyce, is yet to sell a property near Narrabri in New South Wales over which Santos holds coal seam gas exploration leases, but says the company has told him it intends to drill on the farm next door and not on his place.

Joyce bought his first property at Gwabegar in 2006 for $230,000 and added an adjoining parcel of land in 2008 for $342,000.

As Santos stepped up coal seam gas exploration he conceded the holdings raised conflict of interest concerns and last August he put the properties on the market.

But in his latest statement of pecuniary interests, the member for New England reveals he still holds the properties and adds a footnote “if exploration for gas proceeds on our place Yarranbindi it is on neighbouring PEL [petroleum exploration lease]”.

NW: "MM12 would you like to borrow my brick wall"

I steer clear of walls  NW, because according to DY some 30 years ago Abbott mistreated one,  and he maybe a recidivist  wall puncher!

LL: "the Abbott govt has relaxed the rules for ministers anyway, the pecuiary register hasn't been updated since july last year so he could be in possesion of more share holdings now, you just don't know. being one of the ministers in cabinet who lobbied for the change he's almost certain to have taken advantage of it. so, there is almost certainly a conflict in his portfolio by now."

That is breathtaking,  for you anyway LL.

"so he could be in possesion of more share holdings now,"

"you just don't know"

"he's almost certain to have taken advantage of it."

"there is almost certainly a conflict in his portfolio by now"

I think the term Kangaroo Court applies above.

LL, how on earth can you  debate using "points"  that have no basis in fact?

PS

The Howard government was the first to introduce a code of ministerial standards in 1996,

how ? i debate with people who make baseless claims all the time. 'when in rome etc'   this is abbotts australia, until he's gone there is no room for facts. besides , on that general criteria you would be here all day correcting people. and yet you act selectively . take the 'is tania shielding shorten' thread , where are the criticisms of that little tale from you ? i cannot find them .

LL"........how ? i debate with people who make baseless claims all the time. 'when in rome etc'............"

Making a claim without research  like DY does in this thread (sometime others),  and expressing  baseless personal myopic  thoughts is not debate, it is partisan waffle.

LL  : "I guess we will find out when Abbott gives him (Bernadi) a ministry position John."

"When in Rome"  translated means being one of these,  in a flock.:
