（昆士兰）州政府周二通过了解散伊普斯威奇（Ipswich）市委员会的法案，昆士兰州工党议员米勒（Jo-Ann Miller）呼吁剩下的伊普斯威奇市议员“闭嘴”并且“离开伊普斯维奇”。
包括前市长Paul Pisasale和Andrew Antoniolli在内的15名与伊普斯威奇市委员会有关的人员在一起被众所周知的腐败丑闻中被指控犯有86项罪名。
在昆士兰州的腐败监管机构之前发布了一份严厉的报告之后，州政府已经就制定了法案来彻底解雇该委员会，该法案于周二通过议会，将从周三开始生效。
工党议员米勒女士来自Bundamba选区，她已经就该委员会的腐败发表了一些列的指控，并告知州议会她因此受到了骚扰，并使她的政治生涯脱轨。
周二当天，其余没有被指控犯有任何不法行为的市委员会委员清理了他们的办公室，并声称他们也被解雇是不公平的，因为他们没有做错任何事。
但米勒女士声称他们是“沉默寡言”让腐败恶化。
米勒女士在州议会说道：“我呼吁伊普斯维奇的市委员们接受他们的命运并闭嘴”。
“我们不希望那些委员突然组成一个反对派团体并在媒体上抱怨，因为当他们之前有机会发声的时候却保持了沉默。”
根据该法案，将会任命行政人员管理市委员会，直到2020年的下一次地方政府选举。

Maverick Queensland Labor MP Jo-Ann Miller has called on the remaining Ipswich City Councillors to "shut up" and "get out of Ipswich" as the state government passed laws to sack the council on Tuesday.
Fifteen people connected to the council, including former mayors Paul Pisasale and Andrew Antoniolli, have been charged with 86 criminal offences in a highly publicised corruption scandal.
Following a damning report from Queensland's corruption watchdog, the state government has introduced laws to sack the council entirely, rushing them through parliament on Tuesday to come into effect on Wednesday.
Ms Miller, the Labor MP for the Ipswich-based seat of Bundamba, has been vocal for some time about corruption allegations against the council, and told parliament she had been personally harassed and had her political career derailed because of her public comments.
The remaining councillors who have not been accused of any wrongdoing spent Tuesday cleaning out their offices, and have claimed their sacking is unfair because they did nothing wrong.
But Ms Miller claimed they were "silent numpties" who allowed corruption to fester.
"I call on the councillors of Ipswich to now accept their fate and shut up," Ms Miller told parliament.
"We don't want those councillors to suddenly form an opposition group and gripe in the media, because they were silent when they had the opportunity to say something."
Under the changes administrators will be appointed to run the council until the next regular local government elections in 2020.

可以说是“腐败窝案”，或者说“塌方式腐败”，但这些标题更适合朋友圈

布里斯班ipwish council 的腐败程度，触目惊心。
之前，廉政公署就向州政府要求解散该council，重新选举。这群既得利益者，不服，上法院打官司，打了好几年。
这下州议会立法，彻底扫清了解散council的障碍，大快人心！
