 Never mind the sex, feel the hypocrisy - theage.com.au
From this little acorn Cairns pleaded that the remark gave rise to a defamatory imputation that he was "improperly involved with his assistant, Junie Morosi, in a romantic or sexual association contrary to the obligations of his marriage and to that of Miss Morosi".
She was awarded $17,000 for a number of defamatory publications, one of which was a cartoon which she claimed gave rise to the dreadful imputation that she had a "romantic attachment with the treasurer, Dr Cairns".
As part of the same action there was another hilarious article sued on in which Clyde Cameron, the minister for labour, was quoted as saying that although he had considerable experience with Morosi over recent years "behind closed doors", at no stage had she made a sexual advance to him.

And that Miss Morosi sponsored the immigration to Australia of a number of Filipino girls and forced them to work for $25 a week of which $10 weekly was paid to Miss Morosi's mother.

 Jim Cairns dead at 89 The rise and decline of an Australian Labor reformist
In December Cairns was introduced to Junie Morosi, a member of immigration minister Al Grassby’s staff.
Whatever the precise role Morosi played in what his closest colleagues regarded as the destabilisation of Cairns, it was politics, not personal relationships, that was central to his demise and that of the Labor government.
The Whitlam government had come to power committed to a program of social reforms, and amid expectations in the working class that after 23 years of rule by the Liberal governments there would be improvements in wages, social services and living standards.

That led Whitlam (who had almost lost leadership to Cairns in 1968) to force him to accept full Treasury responsibility.
Private secretary Junie Morosi allowed senior Treasury officers only infrequent access to their minister and Cairns’s public statements displayed astounding naivety.
A classic example was his response to Bert Kelly’s parliamentary question about the money supply jump to a 20-25 per cent pa increase, accompanied by a doubling in annual price and wage inflation to 15 percent: simple, said Cairns - anything that might conceivably reduce unemployment was fine.
