This might give an impression of what sort of "politician" the Australian chap was..

Carl Scully was sacked as NSW Police minister on 25 October 2006 by Morris Iemma, after having misled parliament twice in two weeks^[3] over the consequences of the 2005 Cronulla riots in December 2005. He had misled parliament when he had said he had not seen a report on the incident. Then-Opposition Leader Peter Debnam had repeatedly called for Scully's resignation.

"The abiding image of Carl Scully is that he carried his pet pooch around the neighbourhood in a chauffeur-driven government limousine at taxpayers' expense," Mr Hartcher said.

He said Mr Scully would always be associated with the terrible state of the rail system, the road chaos leading to the Cross City Tunnel debacle and the mismanagement of the Cronulla riot and its aftermath.
