First ACF influence is traditionally aligned to the ALP, not the Green Party. Derr - Minister Garrett was their boss. Their Sydney office leveraged a unity ticket with Jeff Angel to always cut a deal slightly or greatly favouring the ALP above all others. Since at least Jim Downey after 1996 federal election when he sat on his hands then jumped to the Australian Democrats. True though Greens are influenced by all green ngo's because they are at least 1//4 green. Second problem not so much howler but it amazes me no one follows and accepts the profound significance of the seed money for Get Up. Evan Thorley MP (ALP) former CEO of Looksmart IT entrepeneur franchises the Move On, US Democrat cyber activism to attack W Bush ally Howard. Derr. But here's the thing. Get Up don't have "members". They have "subscribers" just like Greenpeace. That's a whole big difference. This thesis generally right but there are some howlers in here, so lucky you are from my alma mater probably.
