"38 percent of the registered Commonwealth lobbyists are former ministers, other MPs or public servants"

and don't forget LNP circa 2004: "A former federal health department employee is advising the US drug industry as it lobbies for changes to the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme under free trade negotiations, now reaching their critical final stages.

The Federal Opposition has expressed outrage that Paul Cross, the senior adviser on PBS matters to former health minister Kay Patterson, is part of an American push to raise profits from US drug sales."

There has been a long and rich history of LNP and the lobbyist machine attempting to make our health system more profitable for corporate entities at the expense of quiet Australians.

38% of lobyists on the revolving door.... is there any wonder LNP are doing everything they can to block ICAC. ICAC should be the #1 issue at the next election.
