4. Lobbyocracy: the Hypocrisy of Democracy
The Australia Centre for Democracy and Justice will be launching a new campaign early next year around issues of corporate lobbying of government and we need your help.
We’ve registered www.lobbyocracy.org and installed a Wiki, a piece of web-base software that allows anyone to edit the site. We want you to get in there and add everything you know about the lobbying activities of corporations in Australia.
We will be launching this campaign with a forum early next year and we want the site well populated by then so go to the site, register and start editing.
If you've any questions please feel free to email us.
