Bob Brown – 958 Friends (181)
Andrew Bartlett – 573 Friends (261)
Steve Fielding –  60 Friends (5)
Peter Garrett –  1040 Friends  (933)
Joe Hockey – 567 Friends (275)
Kerry Nettle – 205 Friends (83)
Tanya Plibersek – 201 Friends (101)
Malcolm Turnbull – 229 Friends (123)
Warren Snowdon –241 Friends (26)
Dennis Jensen – 95 Friends (6)
Julia Gillard – 1671 Friends (778)
Wayne Swan – 417 Friends (180)
Stephen Conroy –  208 Friends (112)
Maxine McKew –  573 Friends (133)
Nicola Roxon –  149 Friends (66)
Greg Combet –  553 Friends (342)
Steve Ciobo –  100 Friends (71)
Sam Crosby –  10 Friends (10)
