The National Indigenous Times was informed some weeks back of the scandal surrounding the Speaker of Parliament, Peter Slipper, the member for Fisher and former barrister and businessperson.

A source close to the Office of the Prime Minister said that the scandal "was in the works, would soon surface, and just like the Lobby restaurant incident that went on for a little while having pearshaped on the government, the Prime Minister and crew are in overdrive behind the scenes to shore up the government against looming threats from this latest scandal-in-waiting."
