Adam Brandt named Politician of the year!

GREENS MP Adam Bandt has been named Australian politician of the year by men’s magazine GQ. I’ve never read GQ and I’m definitely not going to start now if they or their readers think Brandt is the best there is.

Mr Bandt was unable to attend the award ceremony at the Sydney Opera House because he was engaged in last-minute talks with the Government screwing the government and Australia out of $200m as the Greens price for supporting the ALP’s mining tax legislation.

THE Federal Government has been forced by outrage over an extraordinary secrecy pact to reveal details of its multi-million dollar deal with the Greens to get a law passed. It will defer concessions for foreign banks to get $20 million a year in revenue the Greens wanted spent on public facilities.

When will this debacle end?
