The ABC brings word that Alistair Coe’s complaints about Greens brochures have been dismissed:

Liberals MLA Alistair Coe had complained to Legislative Assembly Speaker Shane Rattenbury about six Greens flyers which he claimed breached guidelines because they mentioned the party’s parliamentary agreement with ACT Labor.

Mr Coe and fellow frontbencher Vicki Dunne were recently ordered to repay thousands of dollars for using Legislative Assembly allowances to produce party political flyers.

Deputy Speaker and Labor MLA Mary Porter says she dismissed the complaint about the Greens’ brochures after taking advice from the clerk.

It’s not that Alistair Coe is young which rankles.

It’s that he’s a 28 year old man still carrying on like a primary schooler.
