So, some Liberals are disputing Peta Credlin's "I sacked the gay guy, but someone re-employed him" narrative:
Federal Liberal MP Warren Entsch has emphatically rejected Peta Credlin’s claim that several years ago she was responsible for sacking a Coalition aide dismissed again this week for allegedly masturbating over a female MP’s desk.
Entsch, the member for Leichhardt and former chief opposition whip, told Guardian Australia that not only did Credlin have no input into his decision to sack the staffer in 2012, but in fact, he dismissed the aide for an alleged unauthorised leak from his office to Credlin who was then Tony Abbott’s chief of staff.
Alex Somlyay, the chief whip before Entsch, has backed Entsch’s account and added that he had originally hired the staffer on Credlin’s suggestion.
Guardian Australia revealed on Tuesday the man had been employed on and off for more than a decade working for senior Liberal figures. The prime minister, Scott Morrison, later confirmed his employers included former chief whip Nola Marino in whose office the masturbation incident allegedly took place.
What a completely dysfunctional mob!
PS: I am somewhat sceptical of her "gay orgies" claims, too. I am not entirely sure how many participants it takes to make an orgy, but I wonder if she is counting any number greater than 2 as fitting the definition, when most people wouldn't.
wrong and not for the first time
ReplyDelete"I fired him!"
ReplyDelete"No, I did!"
" No, I did!"
"You're all wrong! I did!"
"Guys, guys.... compromise. You *all* fired him."
