Albanese seems convinced that we can be both a Renewable Energy Superpower and a Big Australia. He seemed to have gotten the memo on the exorbitant intake of foreign students yet within days he invited thousands of Palestinian refugees to come on down. Perhaps he didn't get it after all.

The half million or so annual migrant intake dwarfs the Ten Pound Pom era of the 1950s. Those immigrants built Australia yet many of the current lot appear to be destined to work in fast food. Not building but filling the cracks. Previous immigration made Australia what it is today which until recently had high per capita wealth. From now on life gets more difficult with housing, job security and cost of living. That's for both new arrivals and those already here.

Yes. Mass immigration will continue because it's the only way our useless politicians know to keep the money that they are wasting coming in. Unlike most modern countries, Australia relies too heavily on income tax. The “undertaking” to reduce immigration was a big, fat lie, covered up by the mainstream media.

And the people responsible for Australia's shite politicians - voters - are unlikely to do anything to change things at the next election. We will continue to get what we deserve.

False, by conflating since 2006 NOM expansion, far more international students counted into the estimated population, then mislabelled as 'immigrants' for a white nationalist dog whistle, too easy.

Following the muse of SPA, TAPRI, Murdoch led media, MacroBusiness, right-wing influencers and bipartisan hostile migration policies (patron of SPA is Bob Carr, and whatever happened to Howard's conservative ecologist Flannery, also a patron, but embarrassed silence for a decade?); deceased white nationalist John 'passive eugenics' Tanton.

Tanton admired white Australia and like another 'progressive' his ZPG collegue Paul 'Population Bomb' Ehrlich, visited Australia and was hosted by SPA.

Tanton was described as the 'racist architect of the modern anti-immigration movement' (SPLC) and 'the most influential unknown man in America' (Linda Chavez); informs pro-life white Christian nationalists in GOP but was anti-Catholic, pro-abortion, anti-semitic and Islamophobic.

Pro Publica last week 'Evironment: The Ghost of John Tanton

Reporting Highlights

Tanton’s Network: Today’s contentious immigration debate is the construct of one man’s effort to halt overpopulation, brace for climate change and preserve “European” culture.

Green Hate: Now climate change is amplifying environmental concerns that have always run through the white supremacy and the anti-immigration movements.

Eco-Fascism: Experts warn that extremists who seize on global warming to justify violence are part of a far right trend to reclaim environmentalism as their own.

Many have said that Bob needs a heads up on this network, but coming from the NSW right includes many Catholics, it's bizaare behaviour; apparently he refuses to speak in public about immigration or population....

Many of these people may have been identified and touched up from the 60-70s.... allegedly Carr attended the risible Bohemian Grove, sharing cabin with head of Bechtel.

Author notes, if it isn't me old mate Andrew Smith again, rebadged as "Andras Smith". But it's the same crazy white-nationalist-Tanton-eugenics mishmash. Everyone on the planet uses the net migration measure, but of course Andrew/Andras knows better.

Be happy, Andras, Australia has got unlimited migration, forever. Your team won.
