What is the quid pro quo?

As the connections between extreme religious cults and liberal party politicians are collected, the ruling editor Michelle Pini thinks’ Quid Pro Quo.

Recently, we have witnessed the infiltration of politics by various religious groups, such as the Pentecostal Ufuk Order, to which former Prime Minister Scott Morrison belongs, and its important sources support the liberal party’s 2025 election campaign.

While religion can always be claimed that religion goes hand in hand with politics, it is based on the Spanish Inquisition and beyond, while Australia is a secular state and this is a fundamental principle of our democracy.

Considering that we claim to obey the separation of the church and the state, why do we continue to allow any taste of the religious groups to demand tax exemptions and to donate great funds and resources to politicians?

During this year’s federal election It emerged Rich religious sect, Plymouth brothersHe donated great (unquestioned) amounts to the liberal party, provided a small election volunteer army to “transform people into liberal voting, and even examined it on behalf of the party. Interestingly, it was revealed that members of this secret group were not allowed to vote because they believed that they have religious exemption.

This is pm Anthony Albanian Then the state:

Hundreds of people, liberal party shirts to distribute to the Liberal Party, some of the state borders traveling between the borders of the ballot box is not stacked.

Considering that this organization does not vote in the elections and their views, what is the Quid Pro Quo?

This diligent volunteer group Accessed access Our personal information – our personal information – by the liberal party – this secret cult allows the election to make about one million calls on behalf of the coalition.

On September 15, Four corners An annoying section‘Big brothers‘Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (formerly known brothers) and this cult within the liberal party within the scope of the comprehensive touches.

According to a former Brethren member, the group donated large amounts of money to support Dutton’s liberal party election proposal through various companies and was divided among various candidates:

“… so it can be reported just below the threshold.”

The liberal party’s brothers are not only big donors, but not to provide unpaid labor during the election, but Four corners The group has previously announced that the Morrison government contracts of the Morrison government contracts-$ 135 million during the Covid-19 pandemia.

Completely by chance, of course, former liberal deputy Greg Hunt -The consultations are given, the Minister of Health is currently employed as a board consultant for a company belonging to a Brethren company.

Morrison himself, of course, although not a brother member, a comprehensive group of activities reported to another group of cults, the Pentecostal Horizon Church IA.

Some readers may remember that we distinguished themselves after the former Prime Minister’s government loss.

“We do not trust governments … We do not trust the United Nations, thank God!”

Remember that he is still a member of parliament during that rent.

Morrison’s time, despite the insecurity to the governments they shared with the brothers, let’s summarize some of the spoils of the Pentecostal “churches öz, taken from government notes during Covid, Morrison PM:

• Wa Margaret Court Pentekostal cult branch announced Jesus’ blood will protect the congregations from the deadly virus, but still deign to ensure the Sanitist. Nevertheless, two weeks after this statement, the church accepted More than $ 500,000 Employee, In addition, a federal government of 50,000 dollars increased cash flow. This is too many sanitarians.
• Hope Unlimited Pentekostal Church In the New South Wales DELIVERED Jobkeeper paid $ 660,000 in payments and then $ 1.6 million with an increase of $ 43.355 compared to the previous year.
• And Scomo himself Horizon Pentecostal megacurch buyer conjunctive $ 533.694 In total government subsidies, including $ 110,000, including public money Ministry of the Interior initiative known as Secure Community Fund.

Here, because these megachurch cults are listed as “churches”, they Not legally required To pay any tax.

But let’s go back to the brothers. Except for the liberal party’s election campaign, except for significant fund donations to the brothers and “free” labor force, Four corners Investigation, spending their time and efforts to scare and control their members.

In addition to prohibiting voting voting, the restrictions on the members include keeping them in a protected and passive conservation, controlling their financial status, controlling and monitoring computer access, and prohibition of film, radio and camp.

According to the group’s “man of God” Bruce HalesIn general, members should not trust people with beard, journalists or publishers. Native Australians call them “people” ‘Always living like civilized people’ And ‘He had a lot of money … He spilled his ways’. And women are not allowed to hold their power positions and submit to their husbands’ wishes.

Homosexuality is strictly prohibited and members who speak about sexual abuse or other major disturbing behaviors are bullying and frightened.

Then there is a matter of the last ATO raids to sister offices, ATO’s Four corners, Only:

“… suspicion[s] Tax smuggling, fraud, privacy or privacy [or has] A reasonable belief that the documents can be thrown, changed or can be destroyed … and thinks that a collaborative approach will not work. “

Oh, they can be harassed Non -liberal candidates in the last election.

Then nothing is weird or unwanted!

However, the behavior of the brothers, according to the following liberal party royal family, Four corners report– Moreover:

“… He defended the cult aid arm, the fast aid team or the RRT, and was founded after the British government’s decision to challenge the philanthropic status of the brothers.”

Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott:

“I have had a little interest with the brothers for years, and they are very good people who contributed to our society.”

Old Shadow Treasurer and the current liberal leader Angus Taylor:

“RRT’s work in Australia is absolutely great. And he played a very important role in our communities, so I thank RRT.”

Indeed, as the once known brothers or private brothers building Since 2007, conservative politicians, when they held special meetings with PM then John Howard and the old treasurer Peter Costello.

Apparently, Howard and Costello did not think that they did not think of taking special time for cult leaders, although they were below one of the men. police investigation Howard’s $ 370,000 in Howard’s 2004 election campaign.

Yeah, there’s nothing to see here.
