A few weeks ago, Australian politics was shocked by a heavy political scandal: During the new crown epidemic in 2020 and 2021, the former Australian Prime Minister Morrisen appointed Australian Governor David Hurley (David Hurley) appointed He also served as the minister of five government departments, and many of the five departments at the time did not know.

However, before this scandal, Morrison and the secret Governor Herley, who secretly appointed him as five ministers, was also exposed to another scandal: Morrison actually planned to pay 18 million government financial allocation, using For supporting a "empty shell" foundation that is closely related to Helley, it also gave the foundation's special preferential treatment.

However, the government of Australia's current Prime Minister Albunse has decided to cut off the funding.

Judging from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the scandal was originally exposed around April this year.

The rough plot is that Chris Hartley, a British businessman who has a relationship with the British royal family, has been in contact with the Australian Governor Herley's office and himself in around 2020. The Hartley said he intended to set up an organization named "Australian Future Leaders Foundation" and cooperated with the Australian government to develop a project for Australia to cultivate leaders. The support of the royal family in Australia, and the support of Morrison, who was at the time of Australia.

At that time, Herley not only expressed support for the project, but also "lobbying" Morrison for this matter in 2020 and 2021, including showing the PPT of the project for Morrison. As a result, Morrison actually had no official registration, no office, phone number and website, and no staff, and promised to provide this foundation to provide the Foundation with $ 18 million in the next 5 years. The fiscal appropriation is used for leadership talent cultivation projects, and in March 2022, in the government budget, it is prepared to pay $ 3.6 million to the foundation to operate.

Not only that, after the foundation was registered in April 2021, after registering himself as a "charity organization", the Morrison government quickly amended the law in December of that year and gave the foundation a "tax -to -tax deduction of taxable taxables. The special tax position of donation agencies allows the organization to obtain the corresponding tax reduction and exemption to those who donate to the organization.

But bizarre is that even in 2022, the foundation that is about to be approved by the Australian government, except for the support of the Australian Governor and Prime Minister in the publicity manual, has not carried out any projects at all. Even the official of the Morrison government did not know what the "Australian Future Leadership Foundation" did.

As a result, in April this year, when the Australian Senate Evaluation Committee reviewed the government's budget expenses, he finally discovered this strange situation. Members began to question why the Morrison government applied for such a fund that was almost empty, and gave it to the foundation of almost empty shells, and gave it to the foundation of almost empty shells. Its tax preferential treatment is required to cut off this project. Some Australian people think that there are corruption behind this. With the exposure of this scandal, Herley's role in this incident also attracted some of the attention of Australian politics and media, but the main question of public opinion at the time was the Morrison government.

At that time, the Morrison government's response was that the government was still communicating specific project content with the "Australian Future Leadership Foundation". Will show support with the project.

Later, with the arrival of the Australian election, the popularity of the incident was overwhelmed. From May to August this year, almost no follow -up of the Australian media could not be found on the matter. However, with the defeat of Morrison, the fate of this project was handed over to the new Prime Minister Albonese, and the latter said in April this year that he questioned the project.

Later, in August this year, Morrison had asked Helrson to secretly appoint his scandal of his position as a number of government ministers, and the development of the government's own budget for the government's own budget, "Australia's future leader The scandal of the Foundation has re -attracted attention. Moreover, the focus of this public opinion more aimed at Herley and his unclear relationship with Morrison.

The Australian Internet Political Magazine CRikey wrote a report in detail. In addition to combing the "Australian Future Leadership Foundation" case, Herley and his governor's office and foundation's interests were also listed. Erley and Morrison's political scandal together. There are also many voices on the public opinion field in Australia that the governor should resign and leave, and believes that Helley has destroyed the independence of the Governor.

Finally, from the latest reports of Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the government of Albonese has decided to completely cut off the project to the "Australian Future Leadership Foundation" from the government budget, thinking that this project is "not worth spending money."

This Australian media also cited people familiar with the matter in the report that even if the "Australian Future Leadership Foundation" can really work, its project is more like a white privileged class to expand human -machine relationships, and it cannot be cultivated for Australia.Diverse governments and folk talents.澳 (Report from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
