The Sham of Liberal Party Ethics The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) has uncovered a web of deceit and questionable practices within the NSW Liberal Party.
The recent testimony of Robert Assaf, a senior Liberal apparatchik, reveals a culture that tolerates – even encourages – behavior blurring the lines between politics and personal enrichment.
Assaf's claims that he spent office hours at Catholic Schools NSW doing factional work for the Reformers, a right wing group he co founded to recruit Catholics to the Liberal Party, create a conflict of interest undermining the integrity of the organization.
