She urged that the various Greens in Australia develop a national identity.

Democracy for Sale. Big corporate donors are buying access to our politicians that ordinary people cannot afford. The Democracy4sale donations database allows you to search for donations using our donor industry categories. See first hand the corrupting influence that donations from different industry sectors are having on our governments. The Greens are pursuing tighter donations disclosure laws. We're also calling for the major parties to disclose their donations immediately so that we don't have to wait for over a year to find out who the big donors are. Rapid disclosure would restore the balance in the public's favour by revealing how and when these cash inducements are being used to distort our democracy.
