Libs lay ideological punishment on environment groups
Australian Greens Leader Christine Milne says the Liberal Party's push to remove the charitable status of environment groups amounts to an attack on democracy.
"This is an extension of the Abbott government's ideological attack on the environment," said Senator Milne.
"Tax deductibility should apply to all groups that benefit the community and it's not fair for the Liberals to blacklist environmental groups just because they don't like what they stand for.
