The real parasites here are Knowles, Finnochiaro, Trier and Manalo, feeding off the taxpayers of the NT to satiate their personal greed and delusions of power.
Our chief minister and most senior public servants excusing a mate from due criminal processes is arrogant and appalling. If there is no expectation that they are accountable for their own actions, I have no confidence that they practice accountability in their public roles.
This is all a big misunderstanding. Our incredibly well photographed Chief Minister, surely is making decisions for the long range benefit of all Territorians and not short range decisions to survive this week. I suspect she may be upset she won the election and left the very comfortable confines of opposition. There are uninformed perceptions of some in the community, that while the CLP MLA’s bodies have formed Government, some of their minds have not left their easy, life is sweet, of their Opposition roles.
I note the ALP luvin ABC has a Article titled “NT’s $14 billion debt threat is an issue the Australian government should not ignore” by totally professional, totally impartial Matt Garick, for the first time ever about the huge NT Government Debt! The Article does not mention the bulk of the debt came from the Labor Party of who them tax payer funded ABC Journos have a perceived cosy relationship with!!
The Media landscape in the NT needs a total reset! The NT News is totally bought off and the ABC are totally lost and directionless with their mates in Opposition. Will any Independent politicians ask in Parliament what the expenditure of the NT Government is on the NT News? Its never been asked before and would be jaw dropping for Territorians.
Gimme an “L” Gimme an “i” Gumme an “A” Hang on we need an “ R” Now we have the correct lyrics, we can sound off! She really is a disgrace isn’t she! Let’s all remember her as we do Fyles!

It specifically detailed that Mr Trier ended the investigation into Mr Knowles because Mr Knowles and his wife, Claire Manalo, were concerned that prosecution for the two animal abuse charges would result in their public service jobs being terminated.
“Mr Knowles…made full admissions to the offences that would have resulted in a conviction,”
“Mr Trier provided a formal memo stating that in light of the adverse effect that the court proceedings would have on the workers’ government positions that he would not move forward with legal proceedings,” the whistleblower wrote.
~What they have done according to this published article from original source material, and we hope you and/or your media advisors are all reading this, is a criminal offence.
NT Criminal Code Act 1983 states:
13 Accessories after the fact (1) A person who receives or assists another who, to his knowledge, has committed an offence in order to enable him to escape prosecution becomes an accessory after the fact to the offence.
~Can someone please report Claire Manalo and Alister Trier to NT Police for being accessories after the fact?
~Commit the crime, do the time…….ooops, sorry, no, that’s not for Darwin lawyer Matt Hubber who’s father in law used to be DPP, he did the crime and didn’t do any time (thanx Rex!) or even get any conviction recorded for getting caught buying cocaine twice. And oooops again, sorry, that’s only for 10 year old Indigenous kids, not for our mates high up in Government circles or lawyers who have Government contracts now (check the NTLS list). Stuart Knowles, you owe us a huge one.
~Yes Claire Manalo, I know this might be a difficult concept for you and your cronies to fully grasp…..possibly losing your Government job for committing crime is called: CONSEQUENCES.
Environment Centre NT director Kirsty Howie called last week for a thorough investigation into how the potential criminal prosecution of two animal abuse charges was dropped, adding that it was “difficult to see how the Territory Coordinator can independently regulate the mining and fracking industries if he allegedly owes a favour to the head of a department tasked with promoting those industries”.

If the whistleblower or someone connected to them is reading this, please report all involved to the NT Police as ‘accessories after the fact’ Section 13 of the NT Criminal Code Act 1983.
We’re serious. Give them all your source material and alert them to exactly where to find more evidence in Government servers/email accounts.

Sadly so.
