I know this is off topic, as noted in the header, but,
I am really astounded that Craig Thomson, has appeared to try to make out
that the transactions of the credit card has been highjacked.
Now, before anyone starts to cry things down .
Let me say, that an Escort service or a Prostitution service is totally
legal in Australia and has been for quite a few years
so, why try to denigrate the whole topic.
If he went to a brothel or had a girl or boy come to his premises,
that's okay in my book,
so just own up to the credit card charge and the allegations will stop,
or at least slow down and maybe forgotten.

Then maybe Channel 9 will save themselves an alleged $60,000

Well into the league of "the dog ate my homework".

If he used his money to pay, I don't give a stuff if he had teams of
young boys and/or girls, but I am pissed off that he used some of my
wife's money.

If I had his address, I'd send him a packet of razor blades in the hope
that he would cut his wrists, or throat.

Ahh, it's SO good to see that the old Trial By Media (and Trial By
Opposition) is alive and well...

He's been charged with nothng yet, found guilty of nothing yey, but
already we're talking of sending razor blades...

Well, done, gentlemen...

Saw a good post on FB the other day below a photo of Thomson:
"Good work Labor, you've finally got someone onboard who CAN organise
a root in a brothel".

Isn't that the traditional Trade Union and Labor way?

I recently came across some articals regards Thomsom that have made me question my opinion on this guy. Surprisingly the main stream media have ignored this.
Have a look at the Jacksonvile articals on the independant website. http://www.independentaustralia.net/
There may be more to this than meets the eye.
