The existence of an exclusive hideaway for the country’s movers and shakers where secret
deals were done in private luxury first exploded into the
public eye back in 2007.
Back then, the fact that Qantas spent hundreds of thousands
of dollars wining and dining the nation’s political elite in ultra-exclusive VIP lounges was relatively
unknown.
It was a time before Alan Joyce’s tenure as the CEO of Qantas had even started, when he
was boss of the comparatively lowly budget airline, Jetstar.
And unlike Anthony Albanese’s current slide in the polls leading up to an election in next year, the prospects back in 2007 were
rosy for Labor.
The election that was looming was the ‘Kevin 07’ landslide that would see Kevin Rudd become prime minister and John Howard lose his own seat.
The issue which blew open the ‘guilty secret’ of the Chairman’s Lounge then wasn’t about
a prime minister’s privileges, although John Howard and
Kevin Rudd were certainly both members during their terms as
PM.
But when broadcaster Steve Price – himself a long time Chairman’s
Lounge member – revealed a politically charged remark made within the club’s hallowed walls, the
cat was out of the bag.
The political revelation – a comment by ex-rock star turned senator Peter Garrett that Labor
would change the policies it campaigned on if it won government – did not deter his party from romping in on election day.
In contrast, the scandal currently engulfing Anthony Albanese about his Chairman’s Lounge membership and that of his ex-wife Carmel
Tebbutt, and their son Nathan could bring down the prime minister.
The exclusive Qantas Chairman’s Lounge (above)
has been a well-kept secret for years, but it exploded into
the public conscience in 2007 as the result of a political furore
Broadcaster Steve Price revealed he had been a Chairman’s
Lounge member since 2002 during a row before the 2007 election won by Kevin Rudd which let the
cat out of the bag about the VIP club
The existence of the lounge was so little known back in 2007 that in defending his disclosure of Garrett’s remark, Steve Price had to explain what the private enclave actually was.
In a first person piece he wrote: ‘The Chairman’s Lounge is a separate frequent flyers lounge away from the
crowded normal Qantas Club.
‘As its name implies, the people given access to it are approved by the Qantas chairman, Margaret Jackson.
‘I have been a Chairman’s Lounge member since 2002.’
In his opinion piece, Price also revealed TV entertainment
reporter Richard Wilkins was also a member of lounge.
Wilkins had also been inside at the time and was his only
witness to the remark Price said Garrett had
made.
Other prominent media figures, such as 60 Minutes reporters, actors and performers,
and well-known writers and sports people are said to be
among the lounge’s exclusive membership of around 6000.
Price went on to defend himself for reporting what some claimed was a confidential conversation in a private place, but which exposed him to criticism over his own membership for allegedly
promoting Qantas on his radio show.
Back in 2007, Alan Joyce (left) was boss of the comparatively lowly budget airline Jetstar,
and then Qantas CEO Geoff Dixon (right) had the power over who
made the cut to the Chairman’s Lounge
One observer has described the relationship bet6ween leading politicians such as PM
Anthony Albanese and the former Qantas CEO Alan Joyce (above) as ‘alarmingly cosy’
‘Why on earth is Qantas giving a controversial shock jock membership of its Chairman’s Lounge,
which is supposedly to enable our elite politicians and
business leaders some privacy from the hoi polloi?’ demanded Crikey reporter Stephen Mayne at the time.
‘The Chairman’s Lounge is meant to be all about discretion and confidentiality,
‘ he said, accusing Price of breaking ‘a confidence’.
The following year, before he was succeeded as Qantas CEO by Alan Joyce, Geoff Dixon was the sole gatekeeper
of entry into the club’s hushed confines.
Qantas Chairman’s Lounge membership was ‘so exclusive that
you have to be personally invited by the airline’s chieftain’, Nine newspapers reported in 2008.
‘A marvellous benefit of lounge membership is that the mega rich and powerful
avoid having to mingle with the riffraff who will be travelling cattle class.
‘Having said that, members of the ultra-exclusive club
have included Pauline Hanson.
‘Another lounge member is Brad Cooper, who is currently enjoying a prolonged exposure to cattle-class in Kirkconnell Correctional Centre.’ (Cooper
was the former HIH insurance executive jailed for eight years on fraud and bribery offences).
Membership of the elite lounge is confined to
about 6000 Australians including politicians from both sides, senior public servants, TV stars and actors
The ‘scandal’ currently engulfing Anthony Albanese about his Chairman’s Lounge membership and that of his ex-wife
Carmel Tebbutt, and their son Nathan could bring down the prime minister (above the PM
with partner Jodie Haydon and ex-Qantas CEO Alan Joyce)
The report noted that politicians declaring membership of the lounge ‘which most
of their spouses got too’ in their pecuniary interests that year included Liberal MPs
of the day, Philip Ruddock, Bob Baldwin and
Andrew Southcott.
Labor MPs with lounge privileges included Tanya Plibersek, Bob McMullan, and Sharon Grierson, and Martin Ferguson declared a bottle of Grange hermitage
as a gift from Qantas, as did Liberal, Christopher Pyne.
Asked if all MPs got the captain’s pick from Geoff Dixon, the airline’s spokesperson told Nine: ‘We like to retain a bit of mystery. Membership is by invitation only
and it is reviewed periodically.’
Fast forward to today, and nearly every single federal
politician in the country has accepted free membership of the controversial, invitation-only lounge with one even describing it as an ‘entitlement’.
Qantas and the Albanese government recently denied the
‘very, very high-end perk’ gives the airline a disproportionate level of influence over the country’s politicians.
They were commenting ahead of the launch of the new book The Chairman’s Lounge by former Australian Financial Review
columnist Joe Aston, which has stirred up the controversy.
A Daily Mail Australia audit of the members’ interest registers – in both Federal Parliament’s House of
Representatives and the Senate – revealed almost 93
per cent of the nation’s leaders have been ‘gifted’
membership to the lavish, all-inclusive lounge.
Mr Albanese has defended himself by saying he declared all his benefits in pecuniary
interest statements.
At a press conference this week, he repeated
that all of his upgrades ‘have been declared as appropriate.
What’s appropriate is transparency.’
Apart from the PM, members include every one of his 22-person Cabinet, his seven-person Outer Ministry and all 12 assistant ministers.
PM Anthony Albanese and every member of his 22-person Cabinet, his seven-person Outer Ministry and all 12 assistant ministers are members of the exclusive Chairman’s

Entry to the country’s six opulent VIP clubs are suitably discreet, but once
inside, the designer lounges offer free à la carte fine dining,
table service and a discreet army of dedicated lounge attendants
On the Coalition side of parliament, Opposition Leader Peter
Dutton, deputy leader David Littleproud and former deputy Barnaby Joyce are also among the swathes of
politicians who have disclosed they have taken up free membership to the contentious club.
Bill Shorten is a member, Tanya Plibersek is still a member and so is Teal MP, Zali
Steggall.
Last year it was reported that Australian Competition and Consumer Commission chairwoman Gina
Cass-Gottlieb and Australian Securities and
Investments Commission chairman Joe Longo and some of their deputies are members of the Chairman’s Lounge despite regulating the airline.
Senior public servants in the club included Department of Prime Minister and
Cabinet secretary Glyn Davis, deputy secretaries Nadine Williams, Liz
Hefren-Webb, Rachel Bacon and ambassador to Beijing,
Scott Dewar.
Other Qantas freebies bestowed on members include numerous
business class flight upgrades, model Qantas aircrafts,
frequent flyer points, and tickets to sporting and entertainment events.
Touted as ‘the most exclusive club in the country’, membership to the Chairman’s Lounge is still veiled in secrecy.

Even the entrances to each of the country’s six opulent VIP clubs – in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane,
Adelaide, Canberra and Perth airports – are suitably discreet.
Once inside, however, the designer lounges are noticeably luxurious, with
free à la carte fine dining, table service,
a decadent selection of wines and Champagne and a discreet army of
dedicated lounge attendants.
Virgin Airlines has its own version of the VIP enclave, the ‘Beyond’ lounge.
Only a handful of federal politicians have relinquished their membership to the Qantas Chairman’s Lounge in the wake of the furore.
The select few to take a principled stand on the issue include South Australian senator
Barbara Pocock and former Wallabies star turned
ACT senator David Pocock, along with MPs Stephen Bates, Queensland Green Elizabeth Watson-Brown, and Monique
Ryan, a Teal from Victoria.
Geoffrey Watson SC, a former counsel assisting the Independent Commission Against Corruption and a director of the Centre for Public Integrity, has implored all politicians
and policymakers to follow suit.
‘There are certain positions in life where you cannot
take Chairman’s Club membership,’ he said.
‘You’re taking public money for the job and you are supposed to represent the public.
Why not sit with them while you’re waiting for a plane?’

A ménage à trois and intimacy outside the bedroom are sexual fantasies that we’ve
all heard before.
But what about having sex in a desert, or even a storage unit?
These are just two of the unusual sexual fantasies social media users have confessed to trying.
A hilarious Reddit thread, named ‘what is a sexual fantasy you do not recommend’, features the bizarre sexcapades of commenters — many of who bitterly regret their risqué acts.
The thread began with a question from user u/Fantastic-Ant-4429,
who asked: ‘What is a sexual fantasy you do not recommend fulfilling?’
Having sex in the desert, a library and on a plane were some of the
most upvoted responses, Huffpost reported.
Reddit user u/ElPresidente714 admitted to trying to have sex in the desert at night
when coming back from Vegas. But in reality, they were met with ‘creepy
crawly desert things don’t sleep at night’.
Another, u/DonSmitty said a ‘buddy in high school’ covered his girlfriend (including her genitals) in chocolate syrup.
But it didn’t end well — she got infected with a ‘crazy’ yeast infection.
Doing it in a storage unit was another unusual fantasy which ended
badly. User u/isthisfark wrote: ‘There’s a closing
time and if you miss it you’ll get stuck behind the gates for the night.
Then the people who live there start rustling.’
Not everyone pursues or even plans to act on their sexual fantasies in real life.
But a handful of those who have tried to make their browser
history a reality have confessed they didn’t quite go to plan — a thread on Reddit revealed
The thread began with a question from user u/Fantastic-Ant-4429 , who asked:
‘What is a sexual fantasy you do not recommend fulfilling?’ (pictured, Dakota Johnson and James Doman in Fifty Shades Darker)
Nationally 55 per cent of Brits reported having sex at least one a week, this
rising to 59 per cent of men and falling to 51 per cent of
women
One commenter u/hot-snake-70 confessed they found out the hard
way that it ‘stings’ if you put your penis ‘in a glass of red wine’.
Threesomes were also suggested to be a bad idea with user u/Touristupdatenola adding: ‘If I wanted to
disappoint two people simultaneously, I’d have dinner with both
my parents.’
Another user u/odysseus-23, warned against trying to have sex in a library
due to the likelihood of getting ‘caught on the cameras’.
And while joining the Mile High Club — engaging in sex acts while aboard an airplane — might sound exciting, some warn that it is
anything but.
‘Mile high club. Trust me, these bathrooms are getting smaller and smaller.
And people notice, they always notice,’ u/bigindianenergy29 commented.
Some people came to the conclusion that the bed is the
best location. u/Mundane-Garbage1003 wrote:
‘Most “having sex in an unusual place” fantasies in my experience quickly turn into a lesson on why people usually
just use the bed.’

Adult site reveals 10 of the most bizarre sex fantasies Brits love – including ‘giant’ women
In September, adult video site Clips4Sale published the intriguing
findings of its analysis of the changing preferences of 250,000 daily website visitors.
The analysis revealed a whole host of obscure fantasies held
by its users, including BBL — a preference for women who’ve
undergone buttock-enlargement procedures — and
Giantess, which describes a female giant.
Brits are among the most prolific porn users in the world, with an average of 16,600,000
searches for adult content made each month.
The adult film industry is estimated to be
worth more than £15billion a year.
While thousands of British men and women watch and enjoy pornography without issue,
about one in 20 Brits have a porn addiction.
In some of the most extreme cases, experts
have treated patients who watch x-rated content for
up to 14 hours a day, according to not-for-profit online therapy programme Pivotal Recovery.
However, Many suffers understandably avoid seeking professional help out of shame and embarrassment for their
affliction or fear of exposure.

These are just two of the unusual sexual fantasies social media users have confessed to trying.
A hilarious Reddit thread, named ‘what is a sexual fantasy you do not recommend’, features the bizarre sexcapades of commenters — many of who bitterly regret their risqué acts.
The thread began with a question from user u/Fantastic-Ant-4429,
who asked: ‘What is a sexual fantasy you do not recommend fulfilling?’
Having sex in the desert, a library and on a plane were some of the
most upvoted responses, Huffpost reported.
Reddit user u/ElPresidente714 admitted to trying to have sex in the desert at night
when coming back from Vegas. But in reality, they were met with ‘creepy
crawly desert things don’t sleep at night’.
Another, u/DonSmitty said a ‘buddy in high school’ covered his girlfriend (including her genitals) in chocolate syrup.
But it didn’t end well — she got infected with a ‘crazy’ yeast infection.
Doing it in a storage unit was another unusual fantasy which ended
badly. User u/isthisfark wrote: ‘There’s a closing
time and if you miss it you’ll get stuck behind the gates for the night.
Then the people who live there start rustling.’
Not everyone pursues or even plans to act on their sexual fantasies in real life.
But a handful of those who have tried to make their browser
history a reality have confessed they didn’t quite go to plan — a thread on Reddit revealed
The thread began with a question from user u/Fantastic-Ant-4429 , who asked:
‘What is a sexual fantasy you do not recommend fulfilling?’ (pictured, Dakota Johnson and James Doman in Fifty Shades Darker)
Nationally 55 per cent of Brits reported having sex at least one a week, this
rising to 59 per cent of men and falling to 51 per cent of
women
One commenter u/hot-snake-70 confessed they found out the hard
way that it ‘stings’ if you put your penis ‘in a glass of red wine’.
Threesomes were also suggested to be a bad idea with user u/Touristupdatenola adding: ‘If I wanted to
disappoint two people simultaneously, I’d have dinner with both
my parents.’
Another user u/odysseus-23, warned against trying to have sex in a library
due to the likelihood of getting ‘caught on the cameras’.
And while joining the Mile High Club — engaging in sex acts while aboard an airplane — might sound exciting, some warn that it is
anything but.
‘Mile high club. Trust me, these bathrooms are getting smaller and smaller.
And people notice, they always notice,’ u/bigindianenergy29 commented.
Some people came to the conclusion that the bed is the
best location. u/Mundane-Garbage1003 wrote:
‘Most “having sex in an unusual place” fantasies in my experience quickly turn into a lesson on why people usually
just use the bed.’

Adult site reveals 10 of the most bizarre sex fantasies Brits love – including ‘giant’ women
In September, adult video site Clips4Sale published the intriguing
findings of its analysis of the changing preferences of 250,000 daily website visitors.
The analysis revealed a whole host of obscure fantasies held
by its users, including BBL — a preference for women who’ve
undergone buttock-enlargement procedures — and
Giantess, which describes a female giant.
Brits are among the most prolific porn users in the world, with an average of 16,600,000
searches for adult content made each month.
The adult film industry is estimated to be
worth more than £15billion a year.
While thousands of British men and women watch and enjoy pornography without issue,
about one in 20 Brits have a porn addiction.
In some of the most extreme cases, experts
have treated patients who watch x-rated content for
up to 14 hours a day, according to not-for-profit online therapy programme Pivotal Recovery.
However, Many suffers understandably avoid seeking professional help out of shame and embarrassment for their
affliction or fear of exposure.
