Not sure about the $, but yes, tobacco companies have always donated a lot to LNP, although I think they also give to ALP.

But I think Tony should stick to his bike, he looks as if he pooped in his pants Cat LOL

http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/alp-still-seeking-political-donations-from-tobacco-...

 

THE Labor Party has continued to seek political donations of up to $102,000 from a major tobacco company, as recently as this week, despite a ban.

 

The embarrassing revelation comes in the same week federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon was forced to apologise for sending a fundraising request to the same company in 2005, a year after Labor banned tobacco company donations.

 

Most of the six newly revealed letters were sent by Sports Minister Mark Arbib when he was secretary of the NSW ALP. They invited a senior tobacco executive to spend up to $15,000 on tickets to fundraising functions.

 

Current NSW secretary Sam Dastyari wrote to the executive at Philip Morris this month offering a $5000 place at a Business Dialogue and Country Business Forum

 

The letter arrived at Philip Morris on the same day that Ms Roxon apologised after the ABC revealed she had sent a similar request to the same company.
