"...a letter was produced from new Attorney General George Brandis, which seems to have had the same effect as a “Get out of jail free” card......"

Judgement by Magistrate Maria Doogan in a Canberra court is even more outrageous. Tony Abbott’s Chief of Staff, Peta Credlin, who pleaded guilty to drink driving, got off scot free — no suspension, no fine, no conviction.

Can you believe this?
How can this not be front page news !!!

"Justice doesn't have to be done, it just has to be seen to be done," said Peta Credlin outside the Canberra Magistrates Court, explaining the Liberal Party attitude towards the law when it is applied to them.

Because  I suspect you blindly read an article,  from the self styled "Independent Australia" red rag,   which is a year old, and actually was covered in detail back then.

However, I appreciate your interest in history and also your desire to understand basic aviation principles, so you might find this of interest ?

Just one small example of the coruption at the top, so much more we never hear about

A day old story or a year old story... it is still WRONG.

I know someone who was a microdot over the limit. Lost their licence for 3 months and a $1200 fine. They accepted that.

Here's another one worth remarking on, that has just passed it's 1 year anniversary

Liberals squirm as Abbott refers to 'the suppository of wisdom'

“No one,” Tony Abbott told a Melbourne gathering of Liberal Party faithful, “however smart, however well-educated, however experienced … is the suppository of all wisdom”.
