We pay for a house of cards Mr Obeid lobbied former Labor premiers Morris Iemma and Keneally and Mr Sinodinos and Mr Di Girolamo lobbied Liberal Premier Barry O’Farrell. You really couldn’t make it up. NSW politics is starting to look like an episode of the Kevin Spacey series House of Cards. What’s before us are allegations that corruption and inappropriate lobbying crossed party lines. There is also the Eight by Five inquiry called Operation Spicer to start next month that we have heard Mr Sinodinos will feature in again, where millions in illegal donations from developers and others are said to have gone through the slush fund. For O’Farrell, who was hoping to coast to power again in 2015 off the back of Eddie Obeid and Ian Macdonald’s corruption, he might find the issue has at least partially cancelled itself out as an electoral factor over both sides of politics come next year’s election. dailytelegraph.au/news/opinion/we-pay-for-a-house-of-cards/story-fni0cwl5-1226870096803
