Deny, distract and then defend. Let's go through, again, a number of those who are well known to those on the other side and the behaviour they have indulged in. Shaun Reardon, the CFMEU's Victorian assistant state secretary, has already been fined $50,000. He was actually a White Ribbon ambassador until he was dumped by White Ribbon for his disgusting behaviour when it comes to violence against women. That is who those on the other side defend. Gareth Stephenson, another CFMEU organiser, has been fined $118,000. Ralph Edwards, the Victorian branch president, has already been fined $53,250 and, of course, then there's Duncan McAllister, with 101 alleged breaches, including coercion and threats.
