CV and mad panic behaviour

[Mav]

If I didn’t know better, I’d have thought you were making a satirical comment, capcom 

Just have a think about what you’ve said: $3,000 isn’t chickenfeed. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have resigned. I think you’ll agree she’s a tough cookie and she wouldn’t have resigned if she’d been stopped for speeding. And of course it isn’t a simple bottle of wine: it’s linked to alleged rorting of grants. She’ll apparently be battling to escape unscathed. Let’s just back over that for emphasis: she didn’t resign on a whim, she just accepted what was unavoidable.

But you’d be right to wonder why she needs to fall on her sword while SloMo’s Ministers escape pretty much unscathed after the sports rorts affair, the car parks for marginal seats affair and Christian Porter’s tours de force. Now Angus Taylor has served a short banishment, he’s back! No doubt Porter will only need to wait a few moments before he’s back on the front bench too ...

PS: Are you sure there’s a $3,000 bottle of wine at the heart of this? Isn’t the main issue that her allegedly corrupt fellow Liberal and her secret boyfriend of 5 years was rorting grants through a company he controlled?
