Liberal donor personally recommended Tony Abbott's daughter for scholarship.
Les Taylor, the chairman of the Whitehouse Institute of Design board of governors, personally
recommended the prime minister’s daughter for a $60,000 design degree scholarship, and has also
made donations of more than $20,000 to the state and federal Liberal party.
Frances Abbott was only the second recipient of the "chairman's scholarship", according to the
institute's chief executive.
A spokeswoman for the prime minister confirmed that Frances Abbott was a recipient of a
scholarship at the institute and said it was awarded as a result of her "application and art portfolio".
She said disclosure of the scholarship by the prime minister on the parliamentary register of
interests was "not required"
Wanna vomit?
I lifted this from “The Guardian, Australia edition”
http://www.theguardian.com/au which is a
centre right publication with more balanced editorials than the claptrap we are served generally. It
does have a wide spectrum of reader comments however.
I didn't think I would contribute to this thread much more but I just couldn't let this one go
unnoticed.
