The Herald's View: The Coalition should be campaigning for greater integrity in politics rather than looking for excuses to protect politicians

that Ms Berejiklian failed to disclose this potential conflict of interest. The inquiry also asked why Ms Berejiklian chose not to tell anyone, including the ICAC, about Mr Maguire’s private business interests, even though he appeared to have told her about them in secretly taped phone conversations played at the hearings.

The “Berejiklian for Warringah” campaign has gone hand in hand with a federal government-led campaign to undermine the ICAC. Prime Minister Scott Morrison also backed Ms Berejiklian and joined the ICAC pile on. “What I found is that Gladys was put in a position of actually having to stand down and there was no findings of anything. Now, I don’t call that justice,” he said on Monday.

I think it is disgusting that someone that had to resign because of corruption is now being chased by Scotty to go Federal. Although, he has one accused of rape and other ministers on other claims so why not stick another corrupt person in the Libs. Great, we all pay for this.

I disagreed. All I see is some people amplify the power that ICAC should have. They bring down a responsible premier in the middle of the pandemic, disregard the health risk of the NSW people.

TONY showed the true believers how its done

Lol. She will fit in with the corrupt.

Pie on face incoming on this one.

Except the public doesn’t seem to care about political integrity.

Given icac, with all it salacious innuendo, can find no evidence of any illegality, it demonstrates icac’s corruption of proper process.

Absofuckinlutely❗️

And improper. LNP does Trump… forgetting Australians know better.

Thank you SMH for restoring some sanity to the media commentary on this issue. It’s unbelievable that there’s even a discussion about her running and indicative of how far standards in politics have fallen.

If Labor only gets a minority and is forced to govern in a deal with independents, Zali will happily help them to pass legislation for a federal ICAC. Other independents may not do. This is about killing federal ICAC. Pure and simple.

Pretty embarrassing that someone in the article thinks most of NSW have disregarded ICAC. She knew, she was corrupt. Power went to her head. Pretty simple auspol nswpol GladysLiedPeopleDied icac corruption

...but premature and reckless is all ScottMorrisonMP is good at! Warringah auspol

“Integrity in politics “ 🤣🤣. You actually said that.

Reeks of desperation, love it!

Would there be a straight politician breathing 😎

Marketer Morrison knows he needs a credible woman to distract the electorate. Too bad he doesn't show any regard for them through his own actions (or lack of them). He really thinks leadership is just about the marketing plan. Wrong!

Yes.

The Herald should be looking for higher standards of journalism because it's usually fucking shit.

So just a bit 'premature' then ?

Tired Old Has Beens offered up like worn-out pluggers!

Typical greenie journalism here..stuff you lot!

Anyone with adverse ICAC findings should be banned from Public Office for good

'before ICAC reports'? She's finished, regardless of what ICAC reports. We've all heard the tapes and seen the footage.

Morrison keeps making out that Berejiklian was cleared, and I've seen no-one in the media challenge that blatant lie.

Both the Liberal Party and the media agreed that quitting politics was the right thing for Berejiklian to do while under ICAC investigation, so why is okay for her to stand again while still under the exact same investigation?

‘She has an instinct for freedom’: Abbott backs Berejiklian federal tiltFormer prime minister Tony Abbott has backed Gladys Berejiklian to run in his old seat of Warringah, despite the ex-NSW premier being under the cloud of a corruption inquiry. Turned a 3 week lockdown into 3 months. What an instinct for freedom. The fact she is under ICAC investigation shows she should not run. If she does it simply shows the Libs don’t take corruption seriously Abbrott backs Gladbags 💋 ☠️
