TRASH talking Climate Change Minister Greg Combet yesterday labeled Opposition Leader Tony Abbott “Australia’s biggest bulls--t artist” but it was Combet who had his facts wrong.
Combet is no stranger to rubbish. As ACTU boss he was involved in trashing Parliament House with a gang of union thugs in 1996.
According to the official report “demonstrators used weapons, including a large hammer, a wheel brace, a steel trolley and a stanchion torn from the external doors to break open the internal doors.
“Simultaneously, a second group of demonstrators used other weapons to break into the Parliament House shop, but were held at the internal doors. The shop was ransacked by demonstrators and major damage was caused by persons who subsequently occupied the area.
“After some two hours, the demonstrators were finally repelled from Parliament House and driven back onto the forecourt area and, shortly afterwards, they dispersed.”
He was also a major player in the wharf dispute, vainly trying to defend inefficient members of the historically corrupt waterside workers union.
