Has Abbott perverted the course of justice?

[mantra]

This snippet has appeared again today and it seems that David Ettridge is more determined than ever to bring Abbott down before the election. If Abbott is found guilty as charged - will he remain eligible as opposition leader? We can only pray that Ettridge has good lawyers.

A LAWSUIT by One Nation Party co-founder David Ettridge against federal Opposition Leader Tony Abbott will head to court next month.

Mr Ettridge is suing federal Opposition Leader Tony Abbott for damages of more than $1.5 million.

He has accused Mr Abbott of acting unlawfully in 1998 by assisting and encouraging litigation against One Nation in the Queensland courts.

Mr Ettridge alleges the court action was false and malicious and the resulting damage affected him greatly.

He also accuses Mr Abbott of attempting to pervert the course of justice by providing lawyers "to propel those false claims through the courts".

Mr Ettridge's lawyers served legal papers on Mr Abbott for damages on the weekend.

A spokesman for Mr Abbott told AAP the papers had been received, but declined to comment further.

A directions hearing is set for the Brisbane Supreme Court on May 9 and Mr Abbott has received a summons to attend.

"Before Tony Abbott can become prime minister of Australia he needs to be judged on his suitability to hold the highest office in Australia," Mr Ettridge told AAP in a statement.

"For his role in this disgraceful period of Australian political history, Tony Abbott has never been brought to account."

I will bet bet Monks $500 that he reckons the ALP will win the election that this will go absolutely nowhere...
Just like the Ramjan head punch that never happened despite the 'witnesses' that never witnessed.
Just like the rest of the lefts desperate lies that 'Abbott is unelectable'.
Just like the lefts lies that illegal immigrants are only coming her because of 'push factors'
Just like the ALP are good economic managers.
Just like the ALP are united behind their leader


If you stopped lying for half a minute, someone may eventually believe you.

But the biggest chuckle is the left throwing their support behind One Nation

The way the ALP are going, it really wouldn't surprise me if they ended up paying Pauline to be their mascot to make themselves more popular, although I doubt Hanson would lower herself.

You've got blinkers on. No-one has lied. Facts have been presented and the RW's brush them under the carpet. Abbott could be convicted for murder tomorrow and you would say it was a lie.

But the biggest chuckle is the left throwing their support behind One Nation

This has got nothing to do with One Nation per se - it's about the measures Abbott took to destroy two human beings. Ettridge should have done something a long time ago - it's probably too late now.

Abbott makes a great attack dog - he is mean and that appeals to a certain aggressive mentality. His heart isn't in running this country. It never was. It's a job and a paypacket only. He hasn't even got the ability to pretend that he knows what he's doing.

You lie constantly, Moantra.

You lie constantly, Moantra.

What a clever response. It must have made you think very hard to come up with that.

I note, no denial from you either

Well I think it's interesting.
Many ON voters won't vote for Abbott because of what happened.
Just what happened and his involvement in it is not clear.
I'm very interested in the outcome.

It is hypocritical of the Labor party the Qld Party that prosecuted Hanson and Ettridge and put them in gaol. Labor who labelled Hanson and her supporters rednecks and racists.

How will the public see this? I don't know.

How will it affect his leadership? I don't know, it will obviously depend on the outcome and findings of the court.

If he is exhonerated maybe nothing.
If he is guilty, I doubt he has the money to pay.
If he has to step down the Libs will replace him. In which case it may enhance their chances at the election.

Load of rubbish.

Abbott's goal was to get rid of the ON threat. He had nothing against Hanson and Ettridge personally that is a lie. He admitted as much years ago.

2nd para an even bigger load of rubbish. When David Marr was given the opportunity the other night to push his normal bile against Abbott he couldn't do it. Unlike some, he has some scruples.

This will amount to nothing. Abbott was given the job to make sure ON was abiding by the rules and set up an organisation to do so. There was some evidence that ON was not, as found in the initial judgement that was eventually overturned.

You can guarantee that there will be a legal separation between Abbott and the organisation that will sequester him from prosecution. He is not a silly man.

If anything, the original judge should be sued for his incorrect and overturned judgement

They were abiding by the rules. Abbott has already admitted his actions were for the party not any moralistic purpose. The initial judgement was quashed. The court action bankrupted the party nationally every state went broke supporting David and Pauline mission accomplished. The Qld SEC never returned the monies they confiscated from the party some $500,000.
