Tripodi expelled from Labor Party

Joe Tripodi has been expelled from the Australian Labor Party, in light of the latest NSW corruption watchdog findings.

The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) found on Thursday that former Labor MPs Eddie Obeid and Mr Tripodi engaged in corrupt conduct.

NSW Labor general secretary Jamie Clements announced in a statement that Mr Tripodi's membership, which had previously been suspended, would now be cancelled immediately.

A meeting of the party's administrative committee would be held on Friday, he said.

Mr Obeid was expelled from the Labor Party in 2013.
