Labor get their serious coin from unions and most of the balance from donations private and corporate. But the union fillup is unique amongst political parties.

Liberals get their serious coin from donations, private and corporate ... that's it.

The greens get their serious coin from well funded activist groups who themselves have well funded backers driven by a range of vices and motives, but rarely altruism.

Both Labor and the Greens seek to make liberal fund raising difficult for the reason they may be unduly influenced to return favours for those funds.

Does Labor mean as in like they may be unduly influenced by unions to return favours?

Do the Greens mean as in like they may be unduly influence by well funded activist groups to return favours?

How shallow!
