Ibac’s finding will only widen the trust deficit between Victorian voters and MPs | Colleen Lewis
Operation Watts will be cited as yet another example of why politicians cannot be trusted to place the public interest first
The report of a first ever joint investigation by Victoria’s Independent Broad-Based Anti-Corruption Commission and the Victorian ombudsman, Operation Watts, paints a bleak and disturbing picture of the culture and practices within the Victorian branch of the Australian Labor party.
It highlights the highly unethical behaviour that took place in relation to the “Red Shirts” affair and the unconscionable branch-stacking and other disgraceful practices which, among other things, involved the misuse of public funds by particular MPs who belonged to the moderate Labor faction.
