C13053 Congratulations Premier on your outstanding upcoming victory! NSW remains in good hands! Daley, like predecessor Foley are a pair of no hopers and liars! Remember NSW what Labor did in their 16 straight years in office! They almost destroyed the State! No more Labor scum!!!

Another one bites the dust! 💯

He needs to be above reproach, if the shoe was on the other foot, I can’t imagine Labor would miss a similar opportunity!

Who cares, must be a slow news week🙄

Gladys really is that all your got !

63argyll Why is it that our Politician's just won't pay their speeding fines like we do?

OMG. I’m completely shocked!!! Who’d a thunk a Labor pollie would be a low life grub? Latest in a long line of criminal Lanor leaders.

Dopey if true.

He should Abolish speed cameras, he’ll be a shoe in

Bye bye

Ohhhhh it's election Time, liberals drumming up BS.

What is the problem here SMH. Mrs Daley was driving her husband's car & paid the fine. nonstory 🙄

Irrespective of who was driving there r some Q’s. The process is the fine is received & a stat dec is completed nominating the driver. There is a review & the ticket is reissued. Why did michaeldaleyMP subvert the standard process? He’s a lawyer. Didn’t want 2 do the Stat Dec?

SMH.....really, seriously this is the style of reporting usually reserved for the Telegraph, I don’t pay subscription to your paper for this garbage, clearly a no news day, lift your game

Nice one.

DaveMyFace What a creep

So smh, when you say “blame”, who was actually driving. If you weren’t driving, it’s ILLEGAL to accept the offence. You MUST declare who the driver was. Are you suggesting Daley was lying?

Wow a labour person doing something wrong... Bill will not be amused

But his wife was actually driving the car - it wasn’t a lie. And, apparently, it wasn’t a ‘secret hotline’. This is all about the NSW state government getting dirt on Labor (or making it up) before the next election,

__NSS__ thetrumpsociety Another one for your mate Troy Bramston.

Classical graft and corruption that has infiltrated our administration.

Pussaluss123 Where's the photo of the person driving? Was a serious offence committed?

Labor don’t change their spots Grab always a grab

The secret hotline that everybody knows about

Gosh, not him as well? Never ends does it?

What's the implication? Was Mrs Daley the speedster? If so, as a constituant she falls within ok. If you are implying she took the rap for Mr Daley then say so otherwise this is a rubbish headline

grub!

MortyAU Perjury is still an offence Labor/Unions/GetUp/Greens

Every time you publish a half-true piece of non-news, aimed at discrediting a person or their political party, you keep your credibility in the basement.

Didn’t take long for to join the gutter press

If Daley has acted corruptly I can’t see any evidence of it in the story. Was he driving or was his wife? If it was him then he is in big trouble. If it was his wife he did the right thing. Come on SMH, this is a ridiculous headline and suggests bias in editorial policy!

MortyAU He’s major dodge 😬

MortyAU Blame the wife....sounds plausible to me.

FMD is that all you have Fairfax Costello Nine or whatever you are now, scraping the bottom of the barrel.

OMG the moralism by these immoral libs. Amazing

Can we see the police photo. This will be easy. She is s good sort, Michael not so much. Labor

This is so typical of Labor, but what do expect of a party lead by a man with absolutely no moral compass.

There are usually pretty clear pictures taken by speed cameras, does anyone know if they would be subject to an FOI request? The story doesn't even ask Daley for comment on whether it was him or not, simply insinuates that it is. Poor journalism. auspol

well done

auspol hmm some unfair criticism here for mp's doing their job and intervening on behalf of their constituents. Don't think ppl should use this service on behalf of themselves but I did note not much said re LNP use of hotline or other parties?

This story makes no sense, his wife was speeding, his wife paid fine. Using word ‘blame’ to imply somehow that Daley was driving, without explicitly stating it, would suggest this is a partisan beat up, but also designed to avoid defamation.

Jeeez , is everyone in our Parliaments gone Mad , what next , sic of this Bullshit

Good on him for exercising his legal rights just like every other citizen in NSW

This is all you have?

how is it a secret hotline if all politicians use it?

Get this in front of ICAC quick smart. He’s corrupt and unworthy of being Premier. ATO Party can’t help themselves.

Oh dear... election over...

Story is probably bullshit.

That is the end of him - get Minns into the job - Daley is useless

Jeez I was just starting to warm to him too. They’re all corrupt, eh! At least he didn’t stick his hand down some girl’s trousers 😉

This Type of action didn’t have a great outcome for another high profile new south Welshman

MORE corruption.....does it ever end?

'They're my policies': Mark Latham's return from political wildernessThe prime ministerial aspirant turned Labor Party pariah is likely to wield a crucial vote on contentious social issues in the next NSW Parliament. So a Herald journo has lunch with Latham in Cabramatta and ends up swallowing every word he says as gospel. Voters in NSW are not as easy deceived as you are. Good on you Mark. More principled than any politician in memory. Called out the dragging of labor to the far left from its traditional role and purpose, and refused to join the journey. Hope you do well mate! Stop giving this oxygen thief airtime.
