In defense of the media here (for a change) the issue of the debtload of the Leadership Candidates isn't really a story until June 4th, and even then, only if they're not paid off. There may yet be a "groundswell of political donations to retire leadership debt". I don't see it happening myself, but stranger things.....
Even then, they may have to take out personal loans in order to repay the political loans. How they go about doing that would be a news-worthy story.
The difference with the so-called in-and-out scheme is that public money is involved in refunding the appropriate expenses from a General Election. Leadership Campaigns are an internal issue with a party and has nothing to do with public money.
