Malcolm Turnbull and Angela Merkel will receive a report on Friday from an advisory group, involving Finance Minister Mathias Cormann and Lucy Turnbull who are also on the trip. (Google search not locate any advisory group) No chance Lucy would have tipped off husband PM Malcolm before any other leader gets to be in the know on Friday?
Malcolm's wife Lucy, and mate Mathias Cormann are PM Malcolm's secret advisory group! And the Liberal cabinet thought it was them
Is this the German Australia advisory group which was explained to you recently, though I cannot put my finger on the post now..... the search here has never worked well for me.
Bullsh!t it was! However my research discovered. Australia-Germany Advisory Group.

Don't you remember the posts, you started the thread at the time? Perhaps because you just post so much nonsense. You said it was Liberal nepotism and got all the different advisory groups and trade commission names mixed up. I replied pointing out your mistakes and offering an explanation why she was on the advisory group panel. So I also posted a list of about 6 different Australian German trade commisions all with similar names, and pointed out that Mrs Turnbull was the chairperson or something of a German Australian trade commission (which was not a goverment body) from well before Turnbull was PM. And that given her clear and established involvement at a high level in that exact area, it made sense she be part of the panel in the advisory group. It is interesting you have no recollection of it at all..... when you saw the name you should have remembered since it was only like within the last 2 months. There were other people who replied, and I know it was at this forum because you started the thread and this is the only political forum I post at.
