In mid-May, a small sticker appeared on a Labor senator’s office door in Parliament House. To an untrained eye it was innocuous – four wolf’s claw marks on a clear background. But it was a symbol of what was becoming parliament’s most talked-about exclusive society.
The logo was confirmation that Victorian senator Raff Ciccone had been inducted into the “Wolverines”, a bipartisan group established to speak up against China’s growing assertiveness.
