it is alledged that aspiring PM and labor minister had an argument with a lovely Asian Milk Bar owner because she had run out of pies!!
He allegedly abused the woman because he thought she said Gillard was soft like a pie would be if she micro waved it for him. This arragant prat should realise that Milk Bar owners only make about $0.10c in the dollar and cannot afford to have too many fresh pies available all day just because some arroganat polly wants a pie for his son.
The lady denys saying anything about Ms Gillard and in my opinion even if she did make a comment about her Gillard is her PM and as a voter she is entitled to have a view and express it.
She claims he said the F word during the incident, he denys it, I believe her not him.
The lack quality of Labor members is most disappointing.
Sounds like little Shorty is under a bit of pressure and things are not all going his way.
Shorten's piping hot meat and greet Save
By Jacqueline Maley Aug. 3, 2012, 4:43 p.m.
Annie Huang owner of the North Carlton Convenience Store.
All he wanted was a pie. Sometimes what a man needs is just that: a pie.
But when federal workplace minister Bill Shorten walked into Carlton North Foods in Melbourne on Thursday afternoon to satisfy his straight-up longing for a tasty stew of mince meat encased in a crisp pastry shell, what he got was a hot serve of back-chat.
The putative pie purveyor, shop-keeper Annie Huang, said she informed the Cabinet minister she was all out of hot pies. She would be happy to microwave one for him, she said, but it would be soft.
Not everyone likes a soft pie.
Upon hearing this disappointing news, Mr Shorten became abusive, Ms Huang told Fairfax radio.
If true, he would certainly not be the first man thrown into a rage when so denied, but Mr Shorten narrates the story differently.
He says that Ms Huang told him that the pies were "soft, like Julia Gillard". He took this as an insult to his leader, exited the shop and told her that he would no longer be purchasing her pies, or darkening her doorstep at all.
Not even for a pastie or a mini-quiche.
As with all great contemporary mysteries, CCTV footage was released.
The film shows a mannish figure, unmistakably Shorten-esque, entering the shop, perusing the goods, and then walking out soon after, in what may or may not be a huff. Oh - and look now! - there he pauses at the door, swivels his head and retorts something in the direction of the cash register.
In an effort to clear up the misunderstanding, Mr Shorten gave a doorstop interview, with what will surely go down as the greatest lament in Australian political history: "I think she was giving me political advice when all I wanted was a hot pie".
But Ms Huang said that what she actually said was: "The pie will be soft. I like Julia Gillard."
Which is surely the greatest non-sequitur in Australian political history.
Mr Shorten apologised and Ms Huang will no doubt recover from the episode.
What have we learned?
That politics and pastry don't mix, that the Labor right does not take kindly to being labelled "soft", and that microwaved pies never did please anyone.
That means if he dyes his hair red we will have a pidgeon pair of evil lying ******, then all we have to do is convince Swan to join them, he's a bit slow on the uptake though

Bit slow on the uptake I guess and would have wasted the cost of the pie plus her 10cents profit. Shyte I would have let him have it and added sauce at no extra cost
after being friends with a few varieties of Asians i am very surprised she didn't try to turn into "pie filling " .would have been popular in LNP pet circles , they really could have enjoyed S**T on Shingle .

Why doesnt Shorten stop harrassing lady workers on his day off?? If this was Abbot can you imagine what the Labor idiots would be doing on TV/Radio interviews etc about him and the incident!
Now all we need is to through in that ***** I'm trying to sing and dance Emerson twit. Then we would almost a full house. Only need one more twit have the three ******
And to think, some of our fellow T$ posters admire and claim to respect this and the likes of this type of after arrogant, abusive, rude creations, and some in the media even hailed BS to be as a future prime minister of our great country! How LOW has our society has sunk toooooo... especially in light of the fact WHEN the unsuspecting Ms Huang tried to tell BS, that she " liked Julia Gilliard "........NO we do not believe you that THERE WAS a MISUNDERSTANDING THERE, MR BILL SHORTEN !!!
Just watched part of the news and labour crying over Australian public calling her a witch and old cow. They forgot however to mention lier, fraudster and all round waste of space. Then we have that ***** Swan, now he's taken up trying to sing as well as the ***** Emerson. What hope has this country got. May as well higher a new government from 12 graders. They may have a better idea
can we test if she is a witch --Monty Python had some good tests ------ plleeaassseee let me try, give ya 50% of the ticket sales (full house --no worries )

Well they are running the country like the Old Monty Python Circus, I guess. When you've got no clue try singing and dancing. No policies just clowning around whilst they send us broke like the red witches understudy in Qld has done then get stuck into the poor bloke trying to fix it up. I think we need to nobble the unions then we would stop the flow on on ******, maybe, then again we would finish up with the greens being even more popular. The worst evil would be????????
ssshhhh !!! don't tell the unions but if Newman plays it right the strikes will bring Qld (members don't get paid during a strike ) into surplus ,and allow a complete audit of each department/employee allowing actual REFORM !!

this shorten is a nasty pr-ck he has all the hall marks of that other one krudd carry on like a spoilt child when things dont go his way.
he is on 3AW every week on neil mitchell with joe hockey and just comes across as a smart-rse joe hockey handles himself well and shorten spending all his time telling us black is white typical ex union ******.
he said the word pie a hundred times it was pathetic this clown is used to getting his own way just like krudd and when it dosent work he gets the sh-ts typical union clown that thinks he has all the power.
he has probably got his union buddies checkin out that business making sure they are paying all the right wages etc wouldnt surprise me at all , his only claim to fame was beaconsfield mine disaster , the unions always blaming the employer for sending them underground in an unsafe environment however where was their responsibilty to their MEMBERS why did they allow it to happen if they had concerns .
this is the main tool they have to go on strike re safety concerns IMO
