We had this conversation under Kevin Rudd, Australians aren't keen on the big Australia concept. The major parties get their funding from big business. A growing population is an easy way to improve their bottom line. Those in government circles like it too, bigger tax revenues to spend, more ability to strut around on the World stage etc.

I'm not keen on a big Australia either, but knowing that it has been coming and will continue may as well take advantage of the situation. Saying that put up a party that doesn't want a big Australia (that aren't hardcore retarded left or hotcopper property bear trolls) and they may have my vote.
