Hockey Lied

[redandblack]

Joe Hockey clearly stated that the coalition's election costings were definitely properly audited.

The accountants involved have just been reprimanded b the Institute of Chartered Accountants for their work, which the ICA said wasn't an audit.

A straight out lie.

I stand by for the outrage at this lie by those who have attacked the PM for doing the same.

[gadj1976]

Thread should be called "<insert name of politician, used car salesman, CEO, someone in a high standing position in a private industry> lied"

Here's a newsflash, ALL POLLIES LIE!

"There will be no carbon tax under the government I lead...."

End of thread.

THERE'S more chance of me becoming the full-forward for the Dogs than there is any chance of a change in the Labor Party.

Blatant LIE!

[redandblack]

Raise you:

"These costings have been thoroughly audited"

[The Sleeping Giant]

Ground breaking stuff. All politicians lie. The sad thing is people still vote for them like sheep.

[redandblack]

Pseudo doesn't.

He draws genitals on the ballot paper

[The Sleeping Giant]

I can't decide between a Giant Douche or Turd Sandwich.

Self analysis at last, TSG ?

So you believe governments or shadow ministers are responsible for the actions of companies they contract to carry out work on their behalf.

You then of course have changed your tune regarding the Rudd Government's responsibility for the actions of companies who they hired to install insulation in 2009.

Right?

[redandblack]

WRong.

That's a non-sequitur.

There's a great difference between blaming Rudd for deaths caused by bad work practices by private contractors on the one hand and Hockey assuring us that his own figures were audited when he knew that wasn't true.

Turning it over to you, if you think Rudd was culpable, then surely you have to condemn Hockey?

I'm neither. I'm an arsehole.

Hang on, how did he know that wasn't true? The investigations findings have only just come out. Where is the evidence he was aware that the audit wasn't carried out as he requested when he made the statement?

Yes, I believe Hockey can be held responsible by his party for not choosing a better firm, and the voters should they wish.

Of course, he didn't implement a system which made errors more likely

And no one got killed or harmed, or lost money. He only damaged himself and his own party

[redandblack]

Of course he knew it wasn't true.

He repeatedly denied what every one else knew: ie, it hadn't been properly audited.

[Q.]

It's only news when a woman lies.

Well, what can I possibly say against that mountain of evidence

[redandblack]

I made the mistake of presuming you had read and knew the facts at the time. My apologies that you obviously didn't

[Jimmy_041]

They are all frickin liars

Facts you are still as of yet unable to produce in this discussion.

[The Sleeping Giant]

They are all frickin liars

And the best liars get elected.
