I have no idea how Sanitarium thought what they were doing was ok and that they would get away with it after the supermarket investigation by comcom and the cost of living crisis being the biggest election issue.

Yeah, totally glossed over the actual structure of sanatarium and SDA. Very relevant, TY.

If a club does charitable activity, then by all means they should qualify as a charity. Just because they happen to worship something and call themselves a church is not enough in my opinion.

I'm looking at the prosperity mega churches like Destiny and Arise. Those bad apples spoil the bunch.

Our conservative majority parties are definitely not going to turn off a huge donation source, so nothing will change.
