If your fundraiser requires an NDA, you’re up to shit.
Nor all I’d agree, but in the case of PHON, it could just be to stop embarrasing footage, or racist footage, or lack of conpetency running an event.
All three of those would qualify as “up to shit” for a political party in my books. One is a lack of comportment, and how can you lead if you don’t know how to present yourself credibly? The second means you aren’t serving your constituents properly, and are probably breaking the law (or you need better laws). The third, well, if you can’t run an event, how are you going to run a nation?
Oh, I agree they all mean they shouldn’t be in government. Up to shit implies purpose. They may be rorting, or lying. They may just be incompetent.
Ranga MAGA is the inbred descendant of the bully the world took down 81 years ago, and the true nature of this colony of convicts is about to hand them a stick with a pointy end.
The meetings and finances of political parties should be embarrassingly transparent. If you want to hold and exert power over those who have not submitted to your ideologies, you don’t get to obscure the machinations of how they’re discussed or deployed.
She is nothing so complicated. She’s merely a relic of the old white, stupid and racist class that was fairly commonplace 50 years ago.
She was screaming into the wind about “Asians” before the US president tried his thing as a Democrat 25 years ago (which nobody seems to talk about). She pre dates tea parties and Maga by decades.
Maga was a thing for Reagan before it was a thing for Trump.
In the 80’s it was just a political slogan. It wasn’t a cult.
It wasnt the kind of cult it is today, largely because of the changes in technology, but it was still largely the same kind of manipulative and narcissistic bullshit that Trump and his ilk foster today.
This shot isnt new, its been going on at least sonce Nixon. Heck, America First was a big thing during the thirties and forties.
I’m well aware of her history, but my post is more about One Nation than the jester who spawned it.
They’re merely the .au flavour of the authoritarian and fascist weed that cultivates and thrives on division and despondency. ‘Ranga MAGA’ is an alliteration to bind their Orange branding with the Trump movement Hanson is now trying to distance them from.
It’s largely irrelevant how the pieces fit together, none of their platform is intended to be coherent, nor logically consistent, they just need it to conjure attention.
Dodgy little cunce.
Political fundraisers ashould be filmed and public record as a matter of course.
gee , are they ashamed of their true beliefs and policies
Why wouldn’t they want people to know before the elections?
This is the sort of thing that means we need the money out of politics policies that the Greens are calling for: https://greens.org.au/vic/platform/integrity. The NDA just takes it to the next level, but politics would be so much better if corporate donations didn’t happen at all, and individual donations were capped.
It’s being called out as in the top four issues by the Greens in the Victorian state election (which is this month), and they’ve got a real chance to be in balance of power, so at least at the state level in Victoria I’m hopeful that this sort of thing can be stopped.
Fine. I won’t give her $3000, then.
I wonder if they have to hand their phones in too?
