One of Labor's most senior officials has launched a blistering attack on sections of the ALP, warning the party is facing a "potentially catastrophic situation" because of the corrupt behaviour of "B-grade" politicians.
"It's a crisis of belief brought on by a lack of moral and political purpose."
The ICAC in New South Wales is currently investigating allegations of corruption involving former ministers Eddie Obeid and Ian Macdonald.
Mr Sheldon has described the pair as "B-grade wannabes", declaring the party needed to expunge itself of that culture.
"Like cockroaches, B-grade politicians are able to thrive on the corruption and detritus that lies under the dishwasher."
If we want to save our party, we have to reach out to the Australian people with the values that have always inspired our movement: a just society that empowers every community and every citizen to share in our nation's success," he said.
