Fully agree I'd like donations from those means to be banned. Businesses and unions don't donate money from the good of their heart, they want to buy influence in some form or another. Whilst we still have donations from these means then I would much rather a PM that donates his own money than coming from 3rd parties.It's still payment for influence. I'd be quite happy if political donations from both unions and business were banned as neither of them are eligible to vote.
That's the new Global Diplomacy "among friends"Donald Trump told Malcolm Turnbull their phone call was 'worst by far': report
If it was an ALP PM, Newscorp would be splashing Labor spit and vitriol on page one with followup on 2 &3.That's the new Global Diplomacy "among friends"

I blame Bill Shorten for this...as will the Liberal Party
Malcolm live on ABC tv now with John Laws....... it's all Labor's fault that the live people exports are hitting an hurdle with Trump.
The Libs are in panic mode.
Scott Morrison is trying to paint Shorten and the ALP as political "hacks". That renewables are a Labor plot.
Unlike every other govt that built Australia's industry and economy, he's not going to leave future generations with a bill for the capital works they will enjoy the benefits of.
This is the same mob that were economic managers and going to fix everything...instead we have an insipid PM and a huge growing debt = due in major part to pork barrelling their support base.
Are you glad you didn't run for them after all ?
The Abbott government bungled its overhaul of billions of dollars worth of Indigenous funding, a major report has found.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-02-03/abbott-government-bungled-indigenous-funding-overhaul/8238822The Government initially earmarked $4.8 billion for the IAS over four years.
The report said the strategy was announced in May 2014 and was designed over just seven weeks.
Tell us something new.
Yes..that sums Turnbull up in one....He should resign and if he doesn't then he will be pushed out by the political revolution which has already begun.The title 'The Turnbull Government' seems to imply that Turnbull has control over the government. I think of him as someone who wanted to be the driver but has found himself behind the wheel of a vehicle with no brakes or steering that is gathering speed down a steep slope.
