It is interesting, isn't it? My recollection is that yesterday the Greens were trying to drum up an argument that big business was all for this.

Perhaps, instead of everybody playing politics with their own supposed constituencies, it might be a good thing if a couple of the parties in this place other than the government looked to the national interest and passed legislation which you know is sorely needed.
