Is the Liberal Party sticking to it's beliefs?

[donnashuggy]

Here they are, for those that don't know:

We Believe:

In the inalienable rights and freedoms of all peoples; and we work towards a lean government that minimises interference in our daily lives; and maximises individual and private sector initiative

In government that nurtures and encourages its citizens through incentive, rather than putting limits on people through the punishing disincentives of burdensome taxes and the stifling structures of Labor's corporate state and bureaucratic red tape.

In those most basic freedoms of parliamentary democracy - the freedom of thought, worship, speech and association.

In a just and humane society in which the importance of the family and the role of law and justice is maintained.

In equal opportunity for all Australians; and the encouragement and facilitation of wealth so that all may enjoy the highest possible standards of living, health, education and social justice.

That, wherever possible, government should not compete with an efficient private sector; and that businesses and individuals - not government - are the true creators of wealth and employment.

In preserving Australia's natural beauty and the environment for future generations.

That our nation has a constructive role to play in maintaining world peace and democracy through alliance with other free nations.

In short, we simply believe in individual freedom and free enterprise; and if you share this belief, then ours is the Party for you.

"The inquiry heard that between 2009 and 2011 nine companies paid $414,042 to Eightbyfive. Of this Tim Koelma pocketed $265,000, Chris Spence $105,000 and Darren Webber $50,000."

It would appear that the ALP and its luminaries set the pace when it comes to "fund transfers", and they also keep it in the family by extracting monies (lots)  from their own !  They can do it in  "style" with   the  (ex) national president of the Australian Labor Party  , or grunge, with (ex)  Thomson.

Perhaps there should now be a revision of the Monopoly game cards,  because the ALP have proved that  you can really go directly  to jail, and also  actually collect $200 (or lots more).

Did  I mention Obeid, another (ex) ALP member?

"The crossbenches of state Parliament are now crowded, with the three men being joined by upper house Liberal MP Marie Ficarra."

The nation's prisons are also  slightly more crowded now  with (ex) ALP members, but at least they will have a quorum !

You might have a long search here.  You could perhaps start with the Federal Court Registry Service !

Principles of stuffing their own pockets?

"That old news"?  do you mean the ALP luminaries with recent criminal convictions (Thomson's is still before the courts LL) or perhaps the much older news apropos the ALP parliamentarians  convicted and jailed for child sex offences?
