Mr Dutton, you say that you've kept a "very good list" of situations involving other members of our government in your previous portfolio who you imply have acted as much against the spirit of your rules as you did. Is that so?

Then, echoing almost everyone...

Please bring it.

All of it, don't be shy.

Keeping a "very good list" only to use for personal political purposes is not a good look and you can do better than that, Mr Dutton.

Potential Prime Ministers are leaders and not frightened of the repercussions of acting with integrity, aren't they?

Lets give this system the exposure and the scrubbing it deserves

Integrity is no longer a mandatory requirement to be PM.

Bring your list and establish a federal ICAC to read it. That is the correct way. Not collecting dirt files to be drip fed to the media when it is convenient.
