the latter something which should have been canned years ago
as should every single penny of business donations to political parties and politicians
as should access by business to politicians, political parties etc
if business is to have access - it should be in writing, to civil servants, who report to government -

and a whopper
for bribery etc - it should also mean the dissolution of the company
