A big boy did it and he ran away

The Australian government is likely to go under due to a sex scandal.  Well, not so much a sex scandal, as embezzlement, or maybe fraud.  Apparently union officials are given credit cards by their unions, and we all know what happens when socialists get their hands on the cheque book, don't we boys and girls?

Yes, that's right Gordon.  Splurge, splurge, splurge.  Only this union official, who is now an MP in a government with a majority of 1, spent it on fast women and loose cars, and all the cash you can eat, allegedly.

Only the best bit comes in his excuse.  Apparently it wasn't him, although he had the card throughout.  It was a friend who forged his signature and seemed to get away with the same trick many times. Either the MP never realised, or he just couldn't stop his mystery friend from pulling the same stunt again and again.

Well it's not my union (or union subs), he's not my MP and its not my country, so I can't help laughing.

I've tried to comment on this, but I find the title so funny and so apt that there's nothing more to say.
