turmoil in the Lib ranks already
Shadow Ministry for Regional
Who shall they pick

A) One of few Libs to have a swing towards them in (7%)
B) Bloke who had a 22% swing against in a safe Liberal seat

Matt Cowdrey didnt deny before the last election if he wasn't promoted within the party he wouldn't run for Colton.

Shouldn't be a by election happening.

If you win a seat and resign within twelve months - unless you have died or are suffering severe health issues - the seat should go to who ever finished 2nd in the last election...

That would stop the Vickie's of the political world giving the "up yours" to the citizens they supposedly represent.

I've never seen a more disgusting snout in trough moment than this one from Chapman.

To receive the maximum parliamentary pension ( $300,984 per year ) you have to serve 20 years and 1 month.

1 month after the election Chapman resigns, triggering a by-election that could cost upwards of $700,000.

You guessed, upon announcing her retirement she'd served 20 years and 1 month. What a pig.
PAFC. Forever.

Hate to defend a pollie, but anyone of us would have done the same in the same situation.

I totally agree that she should not have run for election again without intending to serve out her term, but she was first elected on 9 February 2002, so she would already have served the 20 years and one month prior to this year's election.

As I have said previously, she would have stayed on had they won the election.
Weatherill and Rau did the same thing but waited 9 months. It happens more oftern than not.
She's actually done the right thing - the Liberals need to get some good new people in there because they are very thin
Silly woman should have put herself up for SC like Rau did. Now that was not good!

I am surprised that Gardiner is deputy. I've never met him but he comes across as a complete doofus

It smells to high heaven should've been made to wait at least 12 months and then transition out

You're wrong Booney Bernard Finnegan staying on the public tit whilst facing kiddy p0rn charges will never be beaten as a snout in the trough moment and the nadir of South Australian politics. With Rann et al complicit in allowing him to stay as an MLC so if worst come to the worst they have get his vote even though he was kicked out of the party.

Labor even re-pre-selected his protector Don Farrell to be a Senator. FMD *oink*
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

What do you think Rann et al could have done to prevent Finnegan remaining an MLC?

He'll actually be dirty. Was running again to get the redundancy pension. Now he has to at least feign an effort to earn a pay packet.

After masterminding the gutting of ICAC Labor installs Terry Stephens as President of the House of Assembly.

Very hard to reconcile Malinauskas' position on corruption with that of federal Labor.

Here is the result as of today: https://www.abc.net.au/news/elections/s ... lc-results

I haven't worked out the numbers Labor have


ALP 27, LIB 16, IND 4 in the House of Assembly, and (likely) ALP 9, LIB 8, GRN 2, SAB 2, One Nation 1 in the Upper House.


Makes the President important then
They are going to do everything to lure one of the SAB or ON people
I know its not about their personal gain with these people but:
Nice salary (75% more) / car + driver / big swinging dick...........
Who's going to be tempted...... =P~


I had fully expected this to be the case. A member of the opposition on the other hand...
