The citizens of NSW are quite familiar with politician’s snouts being in the trough.
So it is sad to see the demise of Barry O’Farrell who Tony Abbott quite rightly portrays as blameless and ‘a man of honour’.
How could Bazza be expected to remember such trifling details as a $3000 bottle of plonk – especially after he scoffed it?

Keeping the community together and the community voice loud and clear is what The Echo is about. More than ever we need your help to keep this voice alive and thriving in the community.
Like all businesses we are struggling to keep food on the table of all our local and hard working journalists, artists, sales, delivery and drudges who keep the news coming out to you both in the newspaper and online. If you can spare a few dollars a week – or maybe more – we would appreciate all the support you are able to give to keep the voice of independent, local journalism alive.
Barry & Tony are great surfing Buddies, They go surfing (board riding I suppose) almost daily on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, I suppose Abbot would call him a man of honour. Well It would appear that there wasn’t anything left to do (wine, notes,phone calls) doesn’t take much to figure………………..
Why would you vote either for the red ties or the blue ties? Neither can be trusted. We’ve had Sir Lunchalot (Labo{U}r) then Obede then,… then…, then,… now O’Foundout (LNP)!! Is Cat Hodgepot (LNP) next? Give the Greens or Palmer United or the Sex Party a go in March 2015 – you can’t do any worse!!

He’s either lied or, if he truly is “a man of honour”, he’s suffering from the start of a debilitating brain illness and deserves our empathy. Either way he shouldn’t be Premier.
