I don't live in NSW. The last NSW ALP pollie who was any good was Keating.So saying both sides do it and have done it for years is wrong? Voting for either major party involves compromise on some level.
You have no qualms supporting the the likes of the Obieds association with the NSW labor party? That's actual criminal corruption.
Saying both sides do it and have done it for years is not wrong, but it's like saying Merri Creek and the Nile are both rivers.
