Correspondence between Jacinta Allan and independent candidates reveals why a dispute over Victoria's electoral laws is likely to head to the top court.
The article from The Age discusses a looming High Court battle over Victoria's new electoral funding laws. Premier Jacinta Allan's government is facing legal challenges from the opposition and minor parties regarding the recently passed legislation that bans donations from property developers, gambling, liquor, and tobacco industries. The laws also impose strict caps on donations and spending, aiming to reduce the influence of big money in politics. Critics argue that these restrictions infringe on free speech and political participation rights, potentially skewing the electoral playing field in favor of major parties. The opposition, led by John Pesutto, has vowed to take the matter to the High Court, claiming the laws are unconstitutional and could lead to unintended consequences like increased reliance on public funding or union donations. The government, however, defends the changes as necessary to clean up politics and ensure a level playing field.
