Peter your comments about the Palmer advertisements are correct BUT Palmer is not identified in the commercial as a politician. So, suppose it was Sam Smith, Australian, who ran the commercial. Where does freedom of speech come in? If "Sam" is not a politician or even if he was a candidate some years ago - how is the commercial to be assessed?
