This week, I lambasted the Australian National University’s (ANU) Jill Sheppard for stating that donations and lobbying from big business on immigration are “actually good” because they sway politicians to keep immigration high against the wishes of Australian voters, who overwhelmingly want lower immigration:
I argued that Sheppard’s testimony effectively said, “Screw what voters actually want. They don’t matter. Politicians should represent the lobbying interests of Big Business”.
