  16. "Its not enough to throw them out of office. We need to ban large donations, get money out of politics forever, and break the power of the rich over our political parties. Otherwise, no matter who we vote for, we'll get the laws the billionaires want. And that's not democracy, but plutocracy."

  22. A 2026 priority for political transparency advocates should be to insist donations & gifts disclosures are published with GEO (GenAI Engine Optimisation) in mind. So much #auspol data is hidden & obscured, which creates opaqueness & sidesteps accountability. #SeekingInfluenxe #AI #PoliticalDonations

  23. Essential resource for anyone tracking who gave what to our political reps. Every journo should put it on their desktop & home screen. Mindboggling how many pollies accept likely compromised items. #auspol #spying #PoliticalDonations #PoliticalInfluence #ConflictOfInterest

  24. It’s obvious that companies & wealthy individuals launder donations through PR firms & consultancies to evade scrutiny & accountability. It’s a loophole authorities should close & journos probe but neither will. #auspol #PoliticalDonations #PoliticalInfluence www.anacta.com.au/our-team

  25. We are longer a democracy. I refer to the outrageous donations scam operated by the political duopoly. "...a candidate is limited to spending $800,000 on their campaign, but the major parties have given themselves a nationwide cap of $90 million to market their brands in individual electorates.

    They could, for example, buy up every billboard on the Nepean Highway in Melbourne or South Road in Adelaide, as well as every television spot in the two cities, while independent challengers would be limited to $800,000 for their entire campaign – from administration to office space to establishing profile and printing how-to-vote cards." – The Saturday Paper

    There are two High-Court challenges to this. Surely they will be successful!
    Ironically, donations to the shredded Lib-Nats are nosediving as the big money goes to Pauline Hanson and Advance.
