There is a disturbing pattern of 'coincidental' PR violence against the careers of those not ideologically committed to a public energy sale within the NSW ALP Parliamentary party.
We've reported on Della Bosca copping heaps over his driving license suspension in these articles 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. He has got some back too here and moderate pieces here and here on SAM too. Seems Della Bosca was trying to mediate a deal on the public energy assets rather than an outright split with the union movement.
Then it turns out Mike Veith MP who also opposes energy privatisation was starting to turn up in Butcher of Bega stories. That's pretty rough.
Lynda Voltz MP has been reduced to tears by somone, reportedly, though energy sale backers say they are comforters not harrassers. Mmm.
And then as far back as 11 Dec 2007 we were sniffing the wind regarding Phil Koperberg getting done over by a mystery leak from within the ALP itself. We don't know if this means he is for or against the sell off but he is from the Left Blue Mountains faction.
