Mal Brough steps aside over Ashbygate, another minister resigns over behaviour

Mal Brough

Looks like Turnbull's taking out the trash when people are busy getting pissed on the holidays. 

 In a big move, Mal Brough has stepped aside as Special Minister of State in charge of ministers good behaviour. He has behaved rather badly in the past admitting on the nationally televised 60 Minutes that he did procure James Ashby to get copies of Peter Slipper's confidential diary; a serious crime carrying jail time if found guilty. The whole case is currently being investigated by the federal police, who have recently raided both James Ashby's residence and Mal Brough's home.  


In another unrelated matter, another front bencher in the Turnbull gov Jamie Briggs, has resigned over poor behaviour during an overseas official visit to Hong Kong, after a complaint by a female public servant over his behaviour late at night in a crowded bar with her. Sounds deliciously tantalising doesn't it, but the official version is very clean cut and polite, not giving much away I'm afraid. Never the less, a drunk male Aussie gov minister in a crowded Hong Kong bar doesn't leave much to the imagination does it :) 

Jamie Briggs
Here's Briggs again; the one who injured his leg during the Abbott piss up after losing the prime minister-ship. Looks like he really likes a drink eh?
