Selwyn convicted of further fraud charges

Former blogger Tim Selwyn has had his jail term increased by a further two years, with a guilty plea to 146 GST fraud charges.

Tim has now amassed a not inconsiderable list of convictions, ranging (off memory) from electoral fraud to identity theft, to property damage to GST fraud. His sedition conviction is still silly and unnecessary, but he isn’t exactly a poster child for lawful behaviour.

Worse of all, his once thoughtful blog has been reduced to 50 posts a week on how George W Bush is Satan. I used to read every word Tim wrote, but now my eyes glaze over after a few words from his replacement blogger.
