Nathan Rees says it is dreadful how Mr Obied is dragging the GREAT ALP through the mud or words to that effect.
Funny how he worked for Milton Orkopoulos and saw nothing while sharing an office.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Milton Orkopoulos (born 22 July 1957) is a former New South Wales state politician, and convicted criminal. A member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly from 1999, Orkopoulos was appointed Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Minister Assisting the Premier on Citizenship in August 2005. In November 2006, New South Wales Premier Morris Iemma dismissed him as a Minister and of a member of the Australian Labor Party after he was charged with child sex and other offences. The following week, he resigned as MP for the state electorate of Swansea. On 14 March 2008, Orkopoulos was convicted on charges relating to child sex offences and the supply of drugs. In May 2008, he was sentenced to 13 years in jail. From 1995 until 1999, Orkopoulos represented the ALP on Lake Macquarie City Council. In March 1999, he was elected to represent Swansea in the Legislative Assembly for Labor, and joined the Socialist Left faction. In August 2005 he was promoted to the front bench, serving in the low-profile portfolios of Aboriginal Affairs and Citizenship.[1] Former NSW Premier, Nathan Rees, served as his Chief of Staff before joining the staff of then-Premier in 2006.
