So the concern of this Lib is about Lab Senators who have a union background and their empathy of union issues?

Or is it about the Libs strangling the Labs\union influence and funding?

Based on the arguments used in the article, how is the likes of Murdoch's influence any different to union influence.

I doubt Dan Tehan concern is union member funds, as it has never been a strong point of the Libs previously.

Considering union officials have already been prosecuted for doing the wrong thing, I do wonder what the real motivation is for the Libs crusade.

I should add if there is any tightening to governance of unions, it should also be expanded to other groups as well.

I have had concerns about some sporting associations that appear to be suspect in their handing of finances and the lack of avenues to protect member funds.
