For me this is so pathetically wrong its not funny. The LW Progs and even some "RW" puritans are making a mountain out of a molehill.
To me this is just life... this is an example of the flawed lives we all live... no one is perfect and no one should be casting the first stone. But as usual the LW Prog media are making it their solemn duty to harass, slander and libel Joyce and get him to leave of be tossed out of politics. For labor its the Dastyari pay back.
Shorten is the last person who should be going anywhere near this yet he and Plibersek lie about it day in and day out... the ABC run it as a negative campaign on radio and tv almost every 15 minutes. Talk about bias... talk about overkill.
I agree with Joyce and his supporters about this issue. It is a Personal issue. There were no extra jobs created for this woman her job was simply transferred to to 2 other offices. Things like this happen in Politics all the time, hell they happen outside of politics in business all the time.
People fall for people they work with. People have sex with their fellow workers. Some of them even get married.
There is no guarantee a marriage will last forever and I see no reason to stay in a relationship if it isn't working for you and you are unhappy in life because of it. Similarly in your worklife.
So if we all want to be religious puritans we can all say shame shame shame Barnaby, you will burn in hell and so will your whore... but no that is not what the media is saying at all... its all about Joyce, its all his fault... well hate to tell you people but it takes 2. There is no evidence he raped the girl, sorry woman... or forced himself upon her.
Failing in your marriage as Joyce admitted is not a good feeling and is never pleasant or even wanted.
Turbull's crap was unnecessary, he didn't say anything Joyce hasn't admitted to or acknowledged. His flip flopping has been inept. So as with his comments re the media scrutiny etc I also agree with him. It also has nothing to do with SSM. You can FAIL in your marriage and still rightly believe that marriage is and should be the union of a man and a woman. There have already been gay divorces in the world. And we all know that the majority have a very free sexual lifestyle.
So for me this is an extraordinary beat up... and should never have occurred.

I am still in two minds about it. He did a stupid thing but does it really affect his position based decision making?
His electorate brought him back in a landslide so they were obviously happy with him.
Do our employers really have a right to dictate what we do in our personal space?
To me, what Dastyari did was far far worse and what happened to him? He got a top paid job for his treason.

oh I disagree entirely....I do not expect our MINISTERS to cavort in their office with a staffer and then have her transferred to other dept at will.... I am sorry..
if you are ok with that fine...
me I draw a line in the sand....a wife of a MINISTER should be able to trust .. both sides in these situations..
and if the govt turns a blind eye......seriously would you be happy with your husband doing that job???????????
its about trust.....

I am up and down about it. Some days I think he should be drawn and quartered but other days I think of the same, or worse, from others and wonder why the lefties are so quiet about their own.
I certainly don't think Shorten has a moral leg to stand on.

this is about our DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER...
BARNABY Joyce claimed hundreds of dollars in taxpayer-funded allowances to stay 90 minutes from his family home last year, while still together with wife Natalie.
In March, while Mr Joyce was meant to be living with his wife and children near Tamworth, he repeatedly claimed the $372 a night allowance to sleep in Armidale, just over 100km away.
As a minister, Mr Joyce is entitled to claim the taxpayer-funded allowance to spend nights away from home only if he has ministerial business.
The Sunday Telegraph can find no record of media events or parliamentary business in Armidale on those nights.
A further audit of Mr Joyce’s parliamentary expenses also reveals he charged taxpayers to spend more than 80 per cent of nights on the road in March last year.
During that month, Mr Joyce claimed taxpayer-funded travel allowance for 26 nights compared to Treasurer Scott Morrison, who spent 10 nights away from home.
In May, when the federal Government handed down its budget, Mr Joyce again claimed travel allowance on 25 nights — more than Mr Morrison and Senator Mathias Cormann, who hold key economic portfolios.
TURNBULL
In August last year, when Mr Joyce reportedly assured Mr Turnbull that his affair with his former staffer was over, he claimed the nightly allowance for 25 nights.
Yesterday Mr Joyce was asked why he claimed the allowance to stay 90 minutes from his family home last March.
His office did not respond to the request before deadline.
it appears to me he spent more time with his mistress than he did with his wife... so who really was his partner???
hes sneaky and a liar thats enough for me... he is also a greedy little bloodsucker.
