So-called ‘philanthropy’ is increasingly used to influence the content of everything from what museums display, how they educate, and who can speak at events. ‘Philanthropy’ can also influence who may win prizes, or what music is acceptable at a concert. It is ‘philanthropy’ in name only.

David Shoebridge always asking the questions nobody dares to ask and “ trying “ to stop the corruption. He is brilliant in Senate Estimates always prepared to ask Public Servants on close to million $ salaries , why they don’t do their jobs , only cover up .

One can be morally corrupt without being financially corrupt but I would suggest that one can’t be financially corrupt without also being morally corrupt. But sure, FIFA is a model of the latter.
