Libs flew MP back from US in secret
Feb 11^th, 2019 at 10:14am

Liberal Party flew backbencher Ann Sudmalis home from New York amid fears of losing a vote
Quote:

Key points:
* The Liberal Party wanted to shore up the Coalition's numbers in the final sitting week of 2018
* Ann Sudmalis remained in hiding but ultimately wasn't needed to vote
* She then returned to New York to continue her three-month UN posting

We'll see whether that's true in due course when the expense claims of MPs are released.

really

GetUp, which spent nearly $800,000 in political campaigning last financial year, has been under fire for claiming to be “independent” but in fact acting on behalf of the ALP and the Greens.

thats just the LAST FINANCIAL YEAR red..

so many $5 battlers in Australia... Cheesy

would you vote for anyone who was supported By Fair Go ???

of course you wouldnt

so many libs will never vote for someone who is helped along by such an underhand secret group....as GET UP....

you dont care who they are or what they are capable of doing..

shows how much you believe in this country.. Angry

and the Democrats talk about the russians.....and ltards call them out as well...

yet GET UP who what where.. what is their agenda apart from destroying liberals.. Angry

dirty politics its called you just dont see it.

just think $800.000 Labor doesnt have to admit is a donation.... Angry

Tsk tsk

"The Liberal Party paid for backbencher Ann Sudmalis to return to Canberra from New York, where she was on a three-month delegation to the United Nations."

So I assume the taxpayer paid nothing. Unless you have further info?

I would rather that cods than donations from dodgy banks, Real Estate Agents, business organisations and the like who couldnt give a stuff about the ordinary members of the public or their wellbeing!

I suspect that you are right - it wouldn't have anything to do with getup.

Yes so secret
That's why they're in the news every week, send emails daily etc etc

Sooooo Secret

Anyhoo onto your next fallacy that they only support ALP/Greens.

They are against Adini, which the ALP has not produced a response yet, & will not rule out supporting.

I await the day which WILL come (if the ALP support Adini) when you post a Get Up article Wink

Get Up is in fact Independent, it just so happens at this point in time their policies aline with these 2 parties, who knows after the drubbing expected come May & the lack of old guard LNP pollies, the Liberals just might update their agenda from the 1800's to modern day ideas & then Get Up may campaign for them against the incumbent if their policies offer a better deal on the environment or better social outcomes.
