8. Jackson sacks lawyers in HSU court case

Health Services Union National Secretary Kathy Jackson has sacked lawyers representing her in a court case about putting the union into administration.

Representing herself in the Federal Court, Kathy Jackson told Justice Geoffrey Flick she is against the suggested appointment of former Federal Court judge Michael Moore as interim administrator.

Who is she to say she agrees or doesn't agree to who is appointed as interim administrator? Especially when she has already put the judge offside by contacting him directly via email during the hearing, and when there are so many questions she should be asked about her finances.

Does she think she's untouchable? From the way the media is looking the other way, perhaps she is.

There is something very odd going on.
