A discredited government

September 5th, 2009

How did this article make it past the ABC editorial censorship board? Although one has to go looking for it. John Della Bosca and his acts of adultery are just symbolic of a political party and a government devoid of all integrity. From Quentin Dempster:

While everyone seemed to say they were not making moral judgements about the minister’s infidelity, the hubris, audacity and deceit involved in the affair added to an already formed public perception that personalities within the Cabinet and Government cared more for their puffed-up status, privileges and power-plays than they did for the welfare of the taxpaying public.

That, coupled with a campaign of white-anting of Mr Rees’ leadership by enemies within the 72-member parliamentary Labor Party, has effectively discredited Labor in government.
