This sort of investigative journalism needs to be stopped. No wonder the Mad Misogynist Monk wants to curtail & defund the ABC.

4 Corners tonight, 8.30 pm

That is channel 2 Wink

Like shootin' fish in a barrel Razz

Mafia money in Liberal Party Funding: yeah let's have a Royal Commission into the Unions,The ABC, throw in SBS while we're at it. Of course we'll leave the finance industry alone (when the ABC & Fairfax has previously uncovered CBA corruption in the Finance Industry).

You wanted less red tape now you've got it Wink

Shooting fish in a barrel is an apt description. For avoidance of doubt, you and tannin are the fish. Laughing Razz

I heard this story on the radio on the way home from work, it was about the Calabrian mafia attempts to inveigle themselves into Australian Politics and how they had worked into both the Libs and labor.

Just to add a bit

Quote:
'Mafia-linked donors'
The joint investigation by ABC's Four Corners programme and Fairfax Media found a number of contacts between "known and suspected criminals" belonging to the group and senior politicians.
The report says a man with "deep mafia associations" met the then-Prime Minister, John Howard, and other top party officials at a fundraising event for the Liberal Party in the early 2000s. However, it says there was no suggestion that Mr Howard knew of the man's alleged criminal links.
It also said that both Labor and Liberal politicians had been lobbied by mafia-linked donors on issues of interest to their legitimate and non-legitimate businesses.

Maybe the RC into the unions will discover more links with the Mafia. Or maybe they'll just figure out why little Bills hand picked state secretary of the HSU had her right of entry ticket revoked by Fair Work Australia today. Laughing
