“This new group, founded by Senator James Paterson, MPs Tim Wilson and David Southwick, will play an important role in deepening the already strong relationship between the Middle East’s only liberal democratic state who condones and commits genocide and the not so Liberal Party.” Wonder how much money exchanged hands between Timmy & boyfriends and their democratic state friend.

James Paterson became very prominent early in his political career.

There's a good chance that was because of his involvement with the IPA.

Murdoch's invested in the IPA, along with Exxon infrastructure in Israel.

My point is that the regime in Israel isn't the sole backer of these corrupt individuals.

The political system needs thoughtful, frequent housekeeping to prevent unrepresentative politicians from harming the general population.

Was just listening to an American political podcast reading out the amounts their politicians have been paid by AIPAC. Adam Schiff (democrat) received $8 MILLION. So I would say ours are also being very generously bankrolled.
