Mullet is very innerestin guy - he's very very powerfull and he's very very tough.
The Libs are rumoured to have almost signed him up as a candidate under Doyle but nobody will confirm it. Personally I can't believe he'd give up his $200k plus package as police union boss to play in the second division.
Under him the Vic police are arguably the most militant union in Victoria - and they are very successful. They did a deal with Bracks before the last election in return for a public endorsement, without involving the Commissioner.
Victorian Police are extremely well paid and get generous leave provisions, regardless of which department they work in. They understandably get solid community support, and they usually get their way. I don't think they are viewed the same as a trade union - perhaps more as a high powered lobby group?
The current fracas unlimately involves somebody getting murdered - it's not playground stuff.
