\"\"The AFP has dropped a fraud investigation into Energy Minister Angus Taylor (Screenshot via YouTube)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Angus Taylor, Rhodes Scholar, Energy Minister and alleged fraudster extraordinaire, will not be standing down from his Ministry. He will not face the possibility of criminal charges, be reprimanded or need to defend his questionable behaviour \u2013 or that of his Department \u2013 in any way whatsoever.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

LOW-LEVEL FRAUD<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Despite his alleged lying and cheating<\/a><\/span> to discredit Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore<\/a><\/span>, there will be no consequences for Angus, since he will not even be investigated by the Australian Federal Police (AFP<\/a><\/span>).<\/span><\/p>\n

Some have been quick to accuse the AFP of political bias after its decision not to pursue Taylor<\/span><\/a> over the Sydney City Council forgeries.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because of this, many appear to have decided the AFP is a politically compromised outfit \u2014 one that operates primarily to pursue the political agenda of the government of the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cFor non-Rhodes scholars, like myself, these actions are usually better known as lying and cheating.\u201d#AusPol<\/a> #AngusGate<\/a> <\/p>\n
