Ute Gate Political Scandal

The Opposition leader Malcolm Turnbull found sanctuary from last week’s parliamentary beating – by going to Afghanistan.

It can now be revealed that Mr Turnbull left on Sunday night and spent a day and a half visiting Australian troops stationed in the southern Oruzgan Province. he toured Kandahar air base and the Tarin Kowt base where the troops are stationed.

He told the troops that despite the vigorous goings on at home, both political parties were united in their support for the troops.

Mr Turnbull has been incommunicado while away and, for security purposes, the media was unable to report his whereabouts.
