MP Database Part 1

This list is in alphabetical order. Where possible we have a short assessment of how sympathetic each MP is to our goals and policies. This is purely a subjective assessment and is open to reassessment/change where needed. Those of most interest to us are the Minister of Justice Mark Burton with his associate minister Clayton Cosgrove. Also of keen interest to us is the Minister of Corrections Damian O'Connor, and the Minister of Police Annette King.
This information is in a state of flux at present... as is our Government. It is not currently up to date. I will make updates as the situation clarifies itself.... watch this space!
