NSW Finance Minister hands resignation to Perrottet five weeks before state election

It was explained the shares were among a range of diversely invested stocks, managed by financial advisors and all directed towards a family super fund.

Mr Tudehope maintains he was not aware of owning the shares and says they were sold the moment he became aware of their existence.

Everyone of them should

I’ll bet they all do. Such a cash cow would not go unnoticed to the grubs.

No need to resign untill your caught hey.

Tim Pallas needs to stand down also. Will it happen in Victoria

No wonder why it coat 40 dollar to use toll roads Thats needs to be maintained by our taxes. Its a bullshit tax on people I dont want labor government but these liberals are really pushing it

Wrong!

They all have their fingers in many tills.

ASKED TOO BEFORE HE WAS SACKED

Shadow boxing. Has not resigned his seat just his ministry. Still standing for re-election in a few weeks and will be reinstated as Finance Minister if coalition is re-elected. Nothing changes.

I'm am confused, did Tudehope's superannuation fund hold the shares or did Tudehope buy shares outright in his name?

Knew it - the politicians.

And that just slipped his mind?
