If you think that Australian political parties are ‘bought off’ by corporate and wealthy Australians contribution, think again…
“Australia provides taxpayer funding to parties and candidates based on how many votes they receive. At the May 2025 federal election, each voter was worth around $6.80 in public funding, and that will rise to $10 at the next election – that’s $5 each for ballots for the House of Representatives and Senate.
Labor got $37 million in taxpayer funding after the 2025 election, the Liberal–National Coalition $33 million, the Greens $13 million and One Nation $6 million.
It pays to be popular. Winning the vote of an extra 1% of Australians (about 160,000 people) is worth $1.1 million, set to rise from next year to $1.6 million.” (Source: The Point)

Also, #lobbyists, #GoldenParachutes, the #msm propaganda machine and #PoliticalAdvisors have more influence on politicians than millionaire/corporate hand outsIt’s a shame that the taxpayers do not have their funding of parties ‘tied’ to specific policies and their resulting legislation — KPI-like incentive. I wonder how such a system would operate…

The #DemocraticOldGuard are #Parasites -- no less than the #Kleptocrat #Billionaire class, to which many old #Democrats belong

@hrefna Interesting when CEOs do a bad job, they fire employees who had absolutely no responsibility for Exec actions. #GoldenParachutes for corporate, nothing for people who do the actual labor.
