The Sgt Schultz Defence

[Greynomad]

Just watching Gladys answering questions from ICAC counsel assisting.
She seems to have forgotten to pack her memory when she cleaned out her stuff from the NSW Premier’s office.


She also seems to have a strange concept of personal relationships.
She has admitted having ‘intimate relations’ with Darryl Maguire. She admits they discussed getting married & possibly having children. She is on phone-tap tape saying to him “But you’re family.”
Yet today she told the ICAC hearing that she didn’t regard him as ‘family’, so didn’t declare their relationship in her pecuniary interests statement.
She did declare attending functions with her cousin… apparently that’s a closer relationship than that with a man she has shared a bed with.

So, Darryl Maguire is now a cousin ????? but's still family isn't it ......
She is really stretching the limits of "plausible deniability" no wonder the press conferences stopped and she quite post haste when she realised just how deep in crap she really was .... better to quite while still on full premiers entitlements and pension benefits and become a civilian where the laws might have difficulty actually holding her to account .... but it might screw up her future private employment value .....

She’s been on Premier’s wages long enough to provide a tidy pension without needing to work…
But that’s never stopped retired pollies grabbing more cash before, has it?
And there are companies which are willing to employ ex-pollies as ‘board members’ regardless of the reason for their departure from parliament.
