Should corporations, unions, and non-profit organizations be allowed to donate to political parties?

Only union should be, as these are typically linked or just as much part of a party. It would be like saying that a party membership fee cannot be used.

Yes, but the amount they can donate should be limited, and all donations to a party or candidate should be made public.

In theory yes, if that is allowed by the organisation's constitution, but the parties themselves should refuse to accept that money.

yes but with contracts in place to prevent alliances being formed or corruption and bribery, and not by any parties that have conflict of interest

Yes, but limit the ability of corporations to make political donations, and ban lobbyists from political donations

Yes, but both the party and the donator must be transparent about the amount, frequency, and purpose.

Abolish all political parties except one that represents my ideals of socialism and Australian Nationalism

Unions and not for profits, but not corporations

Political party donations should be extremely limited and totally transparent, having to be declared within 1 month, no further benefit allowed in exchange for the donation and every party should only be allowed to spend an equal, fair amount on the election campaign, have equal opportunities to proclaim and promote their party program, instead of all the mud-slinging, badmouthing, scare campaigns, fear mongering and lies, not just a debate between 2 leaders.
