What an absolute stench is emitting from Australian politics at the moment.
I wont elaborate on the smell...
It is absolutely laughable that SloMo supports Gladys...
Of course he would....
BUT let me ask this....
Why shouldnt Gladys be questioned regarding this fiasco.
What would Gladys have done if there was no ICAC investigation.
Nothing....
Everything would have continued untouched...
AND its laughable that Alan Jones states that all this should be "in camera" until
someone is charged...
Excuse me Alan...politicians are in the highest position in the country.
Their integrity should be held in the highest regard.
They should be exhibiting far greater transparency for their actions than anyone
else in this country.
All actions taken by ICAC should be made public...as they are....
Action taken by ICAC wasnt just because they were looking for something to do.
They would have acted on actions taken by law enforcement...which in turn would have been
taken due to suspicions of the punters....aka tipoffs......
If Gladys, Comrade Dan, Palaszczuk or anyone else makes errors, they should be
held accountable....
They cant just apologize and say "I am an independant woman" and expect
the plebs to just cop it on the chin.
Gladys should resign...
AND morons such as Andrews and Palaszczuk etc should also be given the boot.... :shock: :shock: :shock:

Well that's a surprise, Red, I can't stand Jodi McKay either. Chris Minns was a far better choice imo but I think McKay is another one who got it just because she is a woman.

I've met Gladys quite a few times and she's actually a very decent person so I hope she holds fast.

Denise Brailey is a legend....
The grubberment is in the Banks pockets...
Freakenberg and Morrison are simply acting as puppets for the Banks...
None of the comments on this link support the Banks or the Grubberment...
They all support Denise Brailey....
No doc and low doc loans will return and the peasants will suffer...

"Australia’s most experienced advocate for victims of predatory bank lending has slammed as “insane” Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s policy to lower bank lending standards to boost economic activity. Denise Brailey, founder of the Banking and Finance Consumers Support Association, insisted to the Citizens Party’s Citizens Insight program that the banks have not really raised their lending standards since the 2018 banking royal commission; the plan to actually lower lending standards, she said, is “desperate decision-making, that leads to homelessness. We know that: my files are full of people that had to move out of the home they worked for—for forty years—and saved hard for, and then have lost their home.

Over more than two decades Denise Brailey has advocated for thousands of bank victims, especially elderly Australians who already owned their homes who were talked into so-called low-doc and no-doc loans to buy a second house. She showed that in many cases the banks, not the mortgage brokers, changed the income and expenses details on these loans to wildly exaggerate the incomes of these elderly pensioners in order to meet the criteria for the loans programmed into the banks’ computers. When the borrowers inevitably defaulted on their loans, the banks were able to grab both houses—a win for them, but homelessness for the victims.

Many times, Denise has eyeballed bank executives and Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) regulators on behalf of the victims, to demand justice and save hundreds of victims from homelessness. Her efforts helped to force then-Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to call the banking royal commission, but Denise is scathing of the results. Although Commissioner Kenneth Hayne’s inquiry started with a bang on this issue of predatory lending, it only interviewed “victims” provided by the banks whose cases they had already settled, and none of the more than 10,000 victims who made a submission were given a chance to testify; also, the commission only spent six days on the issue of predatory lending, when it could have taken a whole year. One of the scandals the royal commission ignored had been revealed in 2016, when ABC obtained a leaked 2007 report from the bank regulator, the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA), which had warned that lowered bank lending standards had resulted in three times as much mortgage lending as would have been the case under previous higher standards, and that a rise in defaults would cause a recession. APRA kept this report secret, allowing the banks to carry on their reckless lending, and not only did the royal commission ignore it, it did not recommend anything that would fundamentally change the banks’ behaviour.

“This assumption that banks have higher standards is false”, Denise insisted on Citizens Insight. “They aren’t going to suddenly manufacture higher standards because that would lower the amount of money they bring in each year. The business model is the problem, and the banks win every time. The customers lose; they lose their assets.” She said the idea the banks learned from the royal commission and raised their lending standards wasn’t genuine: “The banks make money by using lower lending standards—promoting they are going to suddenly make their lending standards higher to me is farcical.” In response to Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s statement on 2 October that “it isn’t in the bank’s interest to lend to someone who can’t repay”, Denise said: “It’s not in the bank’s best interest to actually do anything other than low-doc loans, they don’t make as much money—I don’t know what the government does not understand, particularly the prime minister and treasurer. They do not understand it’s not in the consumer’s interest to continue the status quo!”

Despite thinking she had retired, Denise is still advocating for victims of predatory financial schemes and negligent regulation, most recently the victims of the collapse of rent-for-life scheme Sterling First. She is on the warpath against ASIC, which allowed the company to change its name after a first round of scandals and continue trading under a new name and lure in new victims. As with the banking scandals, ASIC’s failings make a joke of the principle of caveat emptor—let the buyer beware—that Scott Morrison insists must remain the basis of dealings between consumers and banks: how can consumers beware of dodgy companies allowed to change their names to keep trading?

Denise Brailey’s unique perspective of the dangers of Morrison’s desperate policy to lower lending standards is a reminder of the systemic risks in Australia’s financial system, which is riddled with the legacy of decades of poor lending standards. It is showing up in many ways, including in the number of Australians who had to defer their mortgage payments, and are now refusing to take calls from the banks to discuss resuming their payments. These systemic risks underscore the danger of bank customers being “bailed in”—having their deposits confiscated to prop up the bank—if any of the banks fail, and are why Australians must demand the government immediately reform the banking system instead of allowing bail-ins. The Citizens Party has put forward policies in legislation to reform the banks, including: a full Glass-Steagall separation of everyday commercial banking from speculative investment banking and all forms of financial gambling; a statutory auditor for the banks to reveal their true financial position; a moratorium on home foreclosures while unpayable debts are restructured; and a national bank to make the long-term investments the economy needs, as opposed to Morrison’s prescription of lowering lending standards to boost the economy through a reckless and speculative lending binge."

Yawn yawn yawn.....
If anyone has trouble sleeping, watch Deb Frecklington for ten minutes....
Unfortunately, if you woke up because of a nightmare, the reason would probably
be Palaszczuk... :rofl
Im sorry Deborah, but youve got absolutely no charisma, no talent, no skills, and no plan for Qld.
In other words....
YOURE hopeless.....
I heard a rumour recently that the janitor in Debs building has more charisma and talent than Deb....
Maybe they should give him the gig.... :rofl
What a choice if you live in Queensland....
Palaszczuk or Frecklington...
Or maybe the donkey vote....
Maybe throw a dart at your candidates names....
This is the level of political talent we have in Australia at the moment...
Reminds me of the TV show...."Australias Got Talent...."
WELL...
No we haven't.... :rofl
Not in Qld... :rofl
