Daily Telegraph [Thanks AR] - THE Liberal Party has claimed 13 Labor candidates are ineligible to stand in Saturday’s federal election. According to Liberal Party headquarters, the 13 hopefuls are all ineligible because they failed to resign from Commonwealth jobs before nominating for parliament. This includes Victorian candidate for McEwen, Rob Mitchell, who the Liberal Party claims may still be employed as a senior adviser to the Brumby state government.

The others named by the Liberals are: Tony Zappia (Makin, SA), Yvette D’ath (Petrie, Qld), Peter Conway (ACT senate), Shayne Neumann (Blair, Qld), Garry Parr (Hinkler, Qld), Alan Neilan (Kennedy, Qld), Sharon Thiel (Kalgoorlie, WA), Belinda Neil (Robertson, NSW), Mark Buttugieg (Cook, NSW), Ross Daniels (Ryan, Qld), Mark Reynolds (Tangney, WA).

  1. MK, I read this today. It’s being settled by a court of some sort. Let’s hope they don’t get some nefarious activist judge. Hang in there. This may be one of the best pieces of news we’ve heard to date.
