I am coming out loud and proud and declaring the following:
1. I am an Aussie white bloke of European descent!
2. I am heterosexual!
3. Although non – religious I tend to believe in Christian values/beliefs!

Subject: “ Teflon Bill – Alleged Rape Victim Speaks Out “

Well people as you can read from the Shane Dowlings Kangaroo Court Publications attached – scroll down- the lady that has accused Teflon Bill Shorten of raping her at a Labor Party youth camp back in the 1980’s has identified herself although just by her first name plus a photo which in my view considering the very powerful and comparatively - by her standards – wealthy Union & Federal Labor Opposition leader possibly the second most powerful and influential pollie in the country next to the Prime Minister would take a great deal of courage!! and good on her more power to her arm!!!!!!
Unquote:

 People as you can see I sent the above out on the 9/10/2014 and after watching and listening on the media yesterday the 25/10/2014 Teflon – Draw the line under - Bill Shorten speaking at the Australian Christian Lobby Function-and later reading the full speech- I got to thinking about the brave alleged rape victim Kathy who was prepared to challenge the second most powerful pollie next to the PM in the country and Union Leader plus our possible next PM in regard to her accusation that as a (19) year old Teflon Bill Shorten raped her as a (16) year old at a Labor Youth camp in the 1980’s and how she would feel on hearing/reading Teflon Bill sprout the following words??

 Respecting each others dignity and conscience? Well in my view this has done very little for Kathy’s dignity coming out as she has in defence of her right to justice!!

 Then there were many passages from the bible – Matthew  here are some:

 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted ? I bet Kathy is mourning right now in her view for some justice??

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth? if Kathy had had the best of lawyers money and influence can buy ? who knows??

Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy? well according to Kathy the Victorian Police were not very merciful??

 Then – Judge not, Jesus tells us:

For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you?? I bet Kathy would like the opportunity to have her case – win or lose – put before a Judge in a court of law and see how that measures up??

To treat people as we would like to be treated? I bet this was all Kathy wanted according to her from the Victorian Police??

 In everything,do to others what you would have them do to you??  is this not all Kathy was asking of the Victorian Police??

 Teflon Bill went onto talk about “ Compassion and empathy ”? well according to Kathy she is still waiting for some? however the cupboard is some what bare in that regard I gather listening to Kathy.

 To answer the clarion call to care for the vulnerable, to speak up for the powerless to reject hatred and intolerance, to help the poor and to pursue peace?? well I bet from what Kathy is stating she must feel she fits most of that bill!!

 Teflon Bill goes on – There is nothing old-fashion about compassion or respect? unquote - especially when you are being accused of allegedly raping a (16) year old vulnerable girl at a youth camp?? as I am sure listening to Kathy she would agree!

 Teflon Bill goes on – We are a free society, you are entitled to your views – I am happy to share mine with you. unquote ? accept it would appear when as a leader of this great country Teflon Bill is accused of allegedly the heinous crime of rape then Teflon Bill quote “ Draws a line under it ”unquote and wont discuss it?? in my view that is double standards by far and unbecoming for a potential Aussie PM!!

 Teflon Bill goes on – We must all be committed to building the foundation for a fairer, more equal society, more decent and more generous world?? I bet listening to Kathy she would shout “ Amen to that Teflon Bill!! Amen to that!!! ” that is just what I am waiting for!!

 Teflon Bill goes on – A nation that reaches out a caring hand to those felled by the shafts of fate, that sees homelessness, poverty, loneliness, and exclusions as wrong to be righted, not problems to be avoided? from what I hear from Kathy the quote “ and exclusions as wrong to be righted ” unquote would be what Kathy is asking the Victorian Police and later the law courts to do for her??

 Teflon Bill goes on – I believe “ injustice anywhere, is a threat to justice everywhere” unquote ? I am sure Kathy would agree with you Teflon Bill (128%) and from what Kathy has stated publically that is all she is asking for!!!

 People listening, later watching and then reading Teflon Bill Shortens speech reminded me of Teflon Bills Budget Reply speech where he was playing to the gallery using his well versed and honed union rabble rousing technique which was full of meaningless pollie waffle however he has gone one better and this time thrown in God, Jesus and Matthew as reference material plus a lot of religious platitudes of his own!!

                                            Barrie Cassidy – ABC Insiders.

It was suggested by Barrie Cassidy on the ABC Insiders this morning the 26/10/14 that what Teflon Bill did by speaking to this mob the Australian Christian Lobby was some what brave??
Well in my view of following Teflon Bill Shorten over the decades during his union life and later his entry into politics is that this is just shifty Teflon Bill trying to take the Christian mob away from Tony Abbott therefore this load of pollie waffle was more an election speech! motherhood statements! covering the whole spectrum homosexual, religion, refugees, foreign aid, the economy, Aboriginals plus throw in God, Jesus, Matthew and the Labor Party and you have a “ Full House ” to coin a cards analogy. 


Ok people speak up if you find the one rule/law for us and one for the powerful and privileged very unacceptable if not and you are happy with the status quo then don’t whinge when you get the rough end of the pineapple you bloody desire it!!

BILL SHORTEN AND THE $500,000 AWARDED TO ANOTHER RAPE VICTIM

Kathy, who was allegedly raped by Bill Shorten outed herself in an interview with News Ltd which was published on Thursday (2/10/14). She in effect said that the police covered it up with one example being that they failed to interview all the witnesses. This is consistent with numerous other rape cover-ups by the Victoria Police. One victim, Jemma Ewin, was awarded $500,000 compensation in August this year.
The rape allegation against Bill Shorten is a ticking time bomb that is getting louder and louder and will not go away and it got a lot louder when Kathy outed herself in the media this week. When it goes off is anyone’s guess but it will be sometime between now and the next federal election.
This website has covered the rape investigation since last November with numerous posts (Click here to read) and I will continue to do so because it has numerous ramifications for federal politics. The reporting of the investigation also shines a spotlight on the failings of the mainstream media and the rise of people using social media in their attempts to get justice.
Key point – Kathy has done at least three interviews and has not asked for money.
Kathy (she asked that her last name is not published) has to my knowledge not asked for money for any interviews and that gives her more credibility than if she had asked for money. It also points to her wanting justice and nothing else.
Brief background
Kathy raised the rape allegations on Facebook last year and then made a police complaint. The Mainstream media reported the a “A SENIOR Labor figure is under investigation by Victoria Police after it was alleged he raped a teenager” in November last year but did not name him even though Bill Shorten was being named on social media. I published my first post on the 29th November 2013 naming Shorten.
On the 21st of August this year Shorten outed himself after it was reported that the police would not be charging the “SENIOR Labor figure”.
On Thursday News Corp published their interview with Kathy. (Click here to read) Part of that interview is in the below video.

On the same day News Corp published their story Channel 7, Channel 9 and Channel 10 ran with stories. Radio Stations 2GB (click here) and 3AW (Click here) broadcast interviews with Kathy on Friday (3/10/14). None of them added a lot of additional information but worth noting because it shows the story is growing
Jemma Ewin and other Victoria police rape cover-ups
It was reported on the 14th August 2014 on the ABC’s 7.30 Report program:
“It was a sexual harassment case that set a new landmark in compensation. This week the Federal Court upheld a half million-dollar payout to Jemma Ewin, who suffered repeated unwanted sexual advances from a co-worker. Despite the hefty civil penalty, a criminal charge of rape was never brought because of a lack of evidence. Jemma Ewin now wants an inquiry into why it the police didn’t proceed in the hope it might encourage more women to report sexual assault.” (Click here to read the full transcript or watch the report)
So the question has to be asked why did the Victoria Police never charge Claudio Vergara with rape? The police at one stage even told Jemma Ewin that they felt she had made it up yet she able to get compensation of $500,000 in the Federal Court for the rape that the Victoria police said she made up.
Mrs Ewin’s lawyer, Rod Keuris said of the police investigation “they were more trying to disprove the matter than prove the matter”
In another case in 2009 also on the 7.30 Report:
“A woman, we’ll identify only as ‘Kate’, who claims she was raped by a Carlton player, says she was offered $20,000 by Victoria Police after it bungled its investigation of the case, and rejected it. There has since been a settlement.” (Click here to read more)
Both cases sound very similar to Kathy and her allegations that the Victoria Police did not do their job properly and covered-up the allegations against Bill Shorten.
Political impact – Sacking Bill Shorten
The Labor Party is in crisis at the moment even if they do try to appear united. They all know they can not go to the next election with Shorten as leader because if they do the biggest issue during the campaign will be the rape allegations. And they need a new leader now to give them as much time as possible to build support with the voters.
All Shorten’s enemies in the Labor Party have more fire-power than they need now to get rid of him. But do they have the stomach for the fight?
Next step for Kathy is quite possibly civil proceedings and then what does Bill do? Fight the claim and have it drag on for a long time, maybe up to and past the next election and in voters minds? Or does he settle, which will be seen as an admission of guilt by many voters no matter what spin Bill puts on it.
Another possibility is the Kathy could institute criminal proceedings herself where there is no statute of limitations. That would be the biggest danger of all for Mr Shorten.
Kathy is not going away
Imagine being a Labor Party candidate knowing every time you make a public appearance at the next election campaign it is almost guaranteed that you will have to lie and deceive on behalf of Mr Shorten about the rape. And you know that the public are not going to believe your garbage.
Once Shorten breached Crisis Management 101 and failed to go on the front foot and deny the allegations publicly last year he lost the battle. Anyone in Crisis Management will tell you that and from here on in Shorten is fighting a losing battle.
It’s up to Kathy whether or not she takes any further action but that does not mean Bill Shorten is off the hook if further action is not taken. Voters will want answers and a fully detailed account of what did or didn’t happen before they vote at the next election. And giving a fully detailed account will not happen as it is too dangerous for Shorten as he might get caught out lying and it will not save his political career anyhow. Bill Shorten has to make a move but what does he do? Whatever he does do is a huge risk but to do nothing is worse
