"Even as these parties are campaigning as insurgent anti-establishment
forces, they have been largely funded by massive cash infusions,
sometimes laundered through financial secrecy havens like Switzerland,
sometimes openly attributed to the richest, most powerful people in
Europe. What's more, the voting records of these parties reflect their
debt to the super-rich, consistently opposing progressive taxation,
anti-tax-evasion measures, strong labour laws, social benefits, and
other measures that would benefit the voters who have backed these parties."
We’ve also seen this in the Australian elections this month. :(
