Deputy Premier Lucas knocks Anna's ethical standards for six ...

It was only last week that Anna and Paul were installed in the top jobs.

It was only a couple of days ago that Anna said that Cabinet ministers needed to be ethical.

And now what happens?

Deputy Premier Paul Lucas has to admit that he was caught speeding but let his driver take the rap.

See - Courier Mail - Leadfoot MP Paul Lucas snapped speeding.

Just what sort of behaviour is that for Anna's Deputy?

Anna now faces a test - will she actually hold her Ministers to some form of ethical standard?

Or is she just Beattie with a new hairdo ...

Just because there is a change of leadership does not mean that the Ministers will suddenly become squeaky clean. Anna will have her work cut out with this lot, let alone the genuine Govt. business. She has been left right in it and there is more to come out. No wonder Beattie deserted the sinking ship.

Why is a pig allowed to be in charge of a moving vehicle?

They have all been taking lessons from Beattie as we see to-day that you put a big grin on your face and fess up and the people will forgive.

I don't know about you, but I think speeding is wrong as it is a very clear law and one should aways travel at the speed limit. Now we find that the Premier and her mates as quite happy to tell us that the have been caught speeding.

That is not good enough as they should lead by example.

Excerpt from the Courier Mail:

Minister's car ran red light

21 September 2007

Deputy Premier Paul Lucas has admitted his government driver may have taken a second traffic offence on his behalf.

The former transport minister's car was caught running a red light at the intersection of Ipswich Rd and Cornwall St, Annerley, at 12.47pm on Sunday, August 27, last year.

Mr Lucas's driver, Robert Lamacchia, paid the $225 fine and was stripped of three demerit points. But Mr Lucas yesterday said he might have been at the wheel because he could not remember his movements that day.
