Leoj, you are obviously a political novice. With just the slightest understanding of the basics you would know that Shorten had no power to sack Dastyari from parliament. No more than Turnbull has the power to sack Abbott, no matter how much he might like to do so. Your rantings about Shorten are totally misguided, but you rantings are mostly misguided, if not, down right wrong.
I was happy to see the grub resign, not much else can be done. Posted by Paul1405, Tuesday, 12 December 2017 8:17:42 PM

Foxy, SR,
The problem is not the existing laws it is the labor party. Labor councils and MPs take personal bribes from developers for favours and their answer is to ban donations from developers. Now that a labor MP has been caught taking personal bribes for favours, now their answer is to ban foreign donations. But that will not stop the likes of Obeid, MacDonald, and other labor crooks. Any donations, or position of power is possible to abuse, but most MPs obey the rules and the few crooked Labor MPs have paid the price. Note that Labor is still getting developer and foreign donations, but simply laundering them through the unions or Getup. Posted by Shadow Minister, Wednesday, 13 December 2017 10:57:02 AM

Dear Shadow Minister,
That still does not explain why our Prime Minister did not give a guarantee regarding foreign political donations whereas Labor did. The Coalition are the ones in power. It is time to fix problems not to continue to blame Labor. Most disappointing. Posted by Foxy, Wednesday, 13 December 2017 11:13:50 AM

Foxy,
You have still yet to point out any problems with foreign donations in the Liberal party. Posted by Shadow Minister, Wednesday, 13 December 2017 11:15:41 AM

Dear Shadow Minister,
I've already done so. You just refuse to see it. Political donations crackdown is long overdue. As stated earlier senior Coalition figures have regularly met Mr Huang and accepted donations from his company. The difference is Labor no longer does while Malcolm Turnbull has refused to make the same guarantee. http://www.abc.net.au/2017-12-04/foreign-spies-political-donations-crackdown-long-overdue/9223854 Posted by Foxy, Wednesday, 13 December 2017 11:23:55 AM

A political donations crackdown is long overdue.
Senior Coalition figures have long accepted donations
from Chinese companies the difference is that Labor
no longer does while PM Malcolm Turnbull has refused
to make the same guarantee.
