I like that it's Al Jazeera and the old one nation goon calls them a "foreign nation" and accuses them of spying on Australian parliament. What a cooked cunt.

It is interesting that "one synapse" weren't the target of the sting, they just happened along.

I hope the AFP or whoever is the appropriate agency pursues this to the maximum extent possible and prosecute accordingly. Trying to lie their way out only shows they are the scummiest of the scum.

I don't think there is enough evidence to show wrong doing from Dutton that would result in him being axed. Lobbyists get paid all the time for setting up meetings with pollies, it's standard across the board in most countries. Dutton is also allowed ministerial discretion and he followed advice from ASIO in not allowing Huang Xiangmo citizenship.

I'm no Darth Dutton fan, but if there was anything stronger on him, they'd have showed it on 4Corners last night.

Agreed. He met with the guy. Big deal. Unlike Dastyari, he did not actively act on his behalf or lie about anything. And I dislike Dutton, as he likely handed labor the next election (he clearly learned his ropes from Rudd/Gillard).

I'd say he was an avid follower of the liberal party during the Hawke-keating era...

I hope so few people vote for Palmer's drones that he gets no funding from the AEC. Hypocritical arsehat he is.
Fuck me Palmer is spending some advertising coin in Tassie at the moment. Is this the same Aus wide or are we just lucky enough to have some marginal seats in play?
