{{stub}}The '''Conservative Leadership Foundation''' (CLF) is a group founded in 2009 by conservative Liberal Senator [[Cory Bernardi]].<ref name="about">[http://www.conservative.org.au/about-us.html "About the Conservative Leadership Foundation"], Conservative Leadership Foundation website, accessed January 2012.</ref>  In October 2011 it was reported that the CLF had "set up at least six websites, including the Conservative Action Network under the name [[CANdo|CANdo.org.au]] and [[stopgillardscarbontax.com]]. While membership is free, the sites do ask for donations. In most cases, it is only when attempting to pay that subscribers can discover who the backer is. The websites do not declare that the South Australian senator is behind them, and the majority do not reveal that the money raised goes to either the Conservative Leadership Foundation or its think tank Menzies House, which was co-founded by Bernardi."<ref>Deborah Gough, [http://www.theage.com.au/national/bernardi-busy-behind-grassroots-anticarbon-tax-movement-20111015-1lqj7.html "Bernardi busy behind 'grassroots' anti-carbon tax movement"], ''The Age'', October 16, 2011.</ref>
