Dear Shadow Minister,

There are more than millions of dollare of political
donations raising concerns. Also there are case
such as Federal Liberal Party's MP Andrew Robb who
was Minister for Trade and Investment whose
behaviour should have been investigated. It is an
obvious bribe when Andrew Robb gets a big fat donation
off the Chinese the same day he signs a trade deal with
them on behalf of Australia. As someone stated in
The Australian - "In the past we would have hanged him".

Mr Robb stood to gain from the companies. The companies were
linked to the Chinese conglomerate Yuhu - and they mad e
donation to Mr Andrew Robb's fund-raising entity the day
the trade deal was clinched.

Also Mr Robb after serving as trade minister took up an
$800,000 a year job with the Chinese firm - the Landbridge
Group which controls Darwin Port.

You can pass this all off as innuendo - but to me these
political donations do raise concerns. I won't go into
the donations to Julie Bishop's fund-raising entity in
WA and the $500,000 Chinese donations.

If we're going to question one politicians behaviour
and Chinese connections - we rightly should question them
all!

Dear Foxy, looks like he is leaving the Parliament and will not be returning in the new Year.

Deat SteeleRedux,

We can only trust that laws will now be passed in
Parliament to protect our country against the
undue influence of foreign political donations.
However, I won't hold my breath.

Dear Foxy,

As this buzzfeed article illustrates the laws on undue influence will probably include provisions on whistle blowers that may well be detrimental to our democracy.

Dear SteeleRedux,

Let's hope that the Independent MPs will be watching
this closely and act accordingly. Jacquie Lambie we need
you!

So, Dastardly finally resigned!

What cozy sinecure has he been parachuted into?

When will Shorten be resigning? He let Dastardly off with a slap on the wrist and he also met with the same Chinese person at his house and later changed a policy, didn't he?

When will Plibersek be replacing Shorten and 'invited' by the Caucus to do so? Or are the heavily male weighted union factions determined to block her?
