Belinda Neal Shoots Straight To The Top Of Our 'Do Not Mess With' List

Man, next time I go out for a bender, I'm taking the delightfully feisty Federal MP Belinda Neal with me. Now there's a woman who knows how to get what she wants, and isn't afraid to (allegedly) spit in someone's face to get it.
It seems Belinda Neal just had a wee scuffle with the folks from A Current Affair, and the police were called. Ben Fordham, the "reporter" whose important job requires him to have deft skills when it comes to stairwell mustering, has given some ace quotes to the media about what happened.
"I threw some questions at her when she got out of the car. The same sort of questions I suppose that the police want answered at the moment (<-- ED: WORK IT, BEN!), and it developed into quite an angry confrontation."
"So the police have turned up. It's quite ironic - these are the police who would really like to be sitting down and quizzing her." (<-- ED: IT'S A GOOD JOKE BEN, WORTH USING TWICE. EXCELLENT ALANIS MORISSETTE-ESQUE GAG! EIGHTY THUMBS UP!)
Anyway, if it all goes wrong for Belinda Neal and she ends up booted from the Labor Party, may I suggest she investigate the world of bouncing? Even a quick glance at her picture makes me want to straighten up and behave properly lest I cop an earful of spirited abuse (amongst other things)... Ben Fordham's lucky he escaped with his life!

This is my favourite Belinda Neal photo TO DATE. Man, what a beast. She could have at least put in her dentures. Compare to the "official" photo on the House of Reps website:
