ANGRY Health Services Union members have issued a blunt challenge to Craig Thomson to sue them - claiming there is "black and white" evidence the suspended Labor MP spent their funds to pay for prostitutes.
As the police investigation into Mr Thomson draws to a close, HSU members from Prince of Wales Hospital in Sydney's eastern suburbs lined up to attack the federal MP, who has threatened to sue anyone who suggests he paid for escort services.
Katrina Hart, a clinical support officer at Prince of Wales and HSU Randwick Campus sub-branch president, called Mr Thomson's bluff and said: "Craig Thomson, you are a liar, you paid for prostitutes with my money and the money of every other HSU member. You (took) $100,000 from us. I dare you to sue me."
A hospital porter, who wished to be identified as Andrew, has worked at Prince of Wales for 16 years and said "people here feel burnt" by Mr Thomson's actions, which have been detailed in Fair Work Australia's 193-page statement of claim filed in the Federal Court on Monday.
