Did you hear about the Nationals/Liberals half a billion dollar taxpayer-funded campaign slush fund?
It includes the Stronger Communities Fund(SCF) & the Stronger Country Communities Fund(SCCF).
We obtained documents that revealed the Liberals and Nationals used around half a billion dollars in grants as a slush fund to buy votes.
Gladys Berejiklian personally changed the rules to SCF to allow over 95% of the fund to go to Coalition seats.
$90 million in grants to Hornsby Shire Council were approved before they even applied and funds in their account within 72 hours.
The largest grant from the SCCF went to John Barlilaro’s seat.
And, Wagga Wagga received massive grants during the by-election caused by the resignation of disgraced Liberal MP, Darryl McGuire over corruption allegations.
Wagga Wagga grants in 2017 = 7

Wagga Wagga grants as the Libs tried and failed to retain the seat in the 2018 by-election = 21
Only 1.5% went to Labor held seats the Libs/Nats tried to win.
Gladys Berejiklian and John Barilaro have treated the taxpayer as their personal piggy bank to buy votes.
