It includes paying for access:

  • Invitation to exclusive 2024 Club receptions attended by special guests

  • Bi-annual meetings with senior Labour Party figures

And early access to conferences and receptions. This literally prices the working class out of participation in the party.

      Paying for access can signal corruption. But it can also be a total scam.

      Spending $2000 to sit at a dinner table fifty feet away from an elected official in hopes you'll get a picture next to someone with power isn't influence.

      Might be worth union leadership's time to ask whether they're getting what they're paying for.
