Teds loosing his grip ?

Victoria's Liberal Government is facing a new crisis, with controversial Frankston MP Geoff Shaw announcing he has quit the party, erasing Premier Ted Baillieu's one-seat majority.

Mr Shaw has been under fire for misusing his taxpayer-funded car to help run his hardware business.

There are reports he will run as an independent.

His move means Mr Baillieu is now presiding over a minority government.

Does this mean an early election?
Last year ABC election analyst Antony Green looked at whether Geoff Shaw could bring down the curtain on the Baillieu Government. Read his blog piece here.

Mr Baillieu is continuing to come under fire over his handling of the secret tape recordings involving his chief of staff.

Geoff Shaw is a crook and needs to be dealt with the same way as Craig Thomson and Slipper and Eddie Obeid and Ian Macdonald and the HSU crooks and and and the large list of crook Labor party members.

Ted Baillieu  needs to either resign or be sacked and real soon as he has been an unmitigated disaster for the Liberal party  and is utterly hopeless as a leader. He may be an OK or even be a good politician but as a leader he is woeful.

 teds a great help, and a pre-view of an Abbott government 🙂

slipper has been cleared under normal curcumstances, as the matter he is facing usually goes before a priveleges committee .. odd that he's in court when others have matters like cabcharge abuses handled that way. thomson has not been convicted. the others are out of office.. the only obeid crony in office is Liberal str. arthur sinodinis..
