Australian Federal Election 2016: and the slurs begin.....


The federal election writs haven’t been issued yet and there was Robert Bou-Hamdan aka Big Rob on his "Lismore Radio" Facebook page scattering aspersions:

It seems unusual that the former MP, who states her strong opposition to coal seam gas locally and who should understand the need for Australia to secure its oil and gas needs into the future, would be working so hard for another country against us while also running as the Labor candidate for the seat of Page - a role designed to represent and protect our interests both locally, nationally and Internationally.
What information is the former MP providing to Timor-Leste as their Senior Legal Adviser?

Oh dear, it’s apparently ‘treason’ time at Big Rob’s place where he seems to be offended by the notion that a lawyer before entering politics should return to that same profession after losing at the 2013 federal election.

As for being "their Senior Legal Adviser" - it is my understanding that Ms. Saffin resigned as legal adviser to Jose Ramos-Horta before the start of the official 2007 federal election campaign which saw her successfully win the seat of Page and, I expect that she will have followed the same course of action in 2016 as she re-contests the same seat

I wonder if Big Rob can spell d-e-f-a-m-a-t-i-o-n?

One would have thought he would be busy enough with ongoing court proceedings since January this year as it is:
