A Burnside councillor who sent an inappropriate message to a teenage girl has rejected calls for him to resign and repay costs from an investigation into his online activity.
"To add salt to the wound, when Cr Carbone was presented with the complaint his denial unduly cost ratepayers well beyond what would normally be expected of a standard code of conduct.""Simultaneously he claimed to have been hacked, he claims he doesn't remember sending it, he claimed that someone stole his phone at 5:06am as some kind of joke, he says he messaged the wrong the account," he said.
"I am very passionate about our community, I am very committed to the work that I have done and continue to do. I am going to focus on all of the good that I have done over the last three-and-a-half years leading to the next election," he said.Cr Carbone said he wanted to resolve the "misunderstanding" by talking to the complainant over a cup of coffee, but she declined.
Good old Adelaide. Proves Tasmanians can swim 😵💫😵💫😵💫🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
So he sent a message to the wrong person. Nobody got hurt. Why is this even an issue?
Just identify as non-binary, problem solved. Any criticism will merely be 'transphobic'. PS, anyone remember Adam Bandt advocating teaching young girls how to send nudes 'safely'?
He literally said “Lots of bikini photos - but it's so damn cold at the moment, hey”. And this breached “the moral standard”? So, the council spent $11,585 “investigating” this heinous crime? Sack the council.
Not for long
Guessing he’s a Lib. Always the Libs.
'Simultaneously he claimed to have been hacked, he claims he doesn't remember sending it, he claimed that someone stole his phone at 5:06am as some kind of joke, he says he messaged the wrong the account,' he said.
He said 'Lots of bikini photos — but it's so damn cold at the moment hey'. Surprised that's a problem message. To help me learn and understand what was the young lady's complaint? Please don't reply starting with 'if you don't understand' I'm trying to understand educate me.
Well, we all know what sort of man he is now, so avoid him like the plague girls, what a silly man.
😬that's...ah yeah gross. Seedy canute needs to get the boot
Ewww. Oily gent
I’m old enough to remember when we used to post holiday snaps in our private photo albums rather than putting them on public notice boards. But if that’s what you want to do……
'We cannot ask Cr Carbone to resign but I feel strongly that he should resign.' - what sort you of people do they have on the council? - does he know this was a child? - hope he doesn’t have a blue card - why is action only ever enabled after something goes wrong? auspol
And 3 guesses which party he’s aligned with
“the councillor's official Instagram account followed a 'number of young females'.” “Simultaneously he claimed to have been hacked, he claims he doesn't remember sending it, he claimed that someone stole his phone at 5:06am…he messaged the wrong the account” lie upon lie.
What gets me she is protesting . Why did she post the bikini clad photos in the first place . Chasing more publicity .
Congratulations on meeting the requirements for preselection by the federal Liberal party
I wonder why?
The bar is set so low that having integrity to hold public office and being a leader in society is not required.
Local council is the training ground for political corruption. Speaking from first hand knowledge
