The former head of the Australian Christian Lobby, Lyle Shelton, says ClubsNSW CEO John Landis should not have been dismissed for claiming the state premier’s gaming reforms were driven by his “Catholic gut.”

“Why can’t we just debate the merits of an issue? Why does someone who offends an identity group have to walk the plank?” he said in a statement to The Epoch Times.
