NO - NO dEMOCRACY.

We are an IMMIGROCRACY funded by by aristocrats on an overpopulated desert island run by a bunch of failed bankers in an isolated out-of touch backwater called Canberra. The current lack of discipline in Canberra is NOT democratic it is a testament to blind immigration policies to create wealth.

At the end of the day we are manipulated and coralled by foreign goverments like Islam, China and India and Sudan into doing what is best for their resident citizens and not our own people. As far as Canberra is concerned this is the holy grail and its economic growth and its good.

But for most of Australia it is a slippery slope of eroding our human rights that threatens the very foundation of our Democracy. Many electoral seats both state and federal are now represented by foreign leaders with foreign interests who preach that buying & breeding australians out of their electoral areas is a prerequisite for taking over Austrlaia and imposing their laws as they see fit.

The old melting pot immigration theory is in tatters and so too is Australia's democratic future. Foreign governments are promoting disquiet in Australian communities in order to get more political control in important electoral seats. The are using our politics against us.

The fear of States seceding that prompted Canberra's creation is no longer a reality. The proper course is to have Parliament meet in each Capital city on a rotational basis.

That way politicians can get stuck in traffic and have rude immigrants berate them on their way to work - like we have to endure every day -so thet can create wealth for who knows who.

Calem and Jayb,

Thanks for the 'H Hmm' support.

The last sentence in my post should read:

That way politicians can get stuck in traffic and have rude immigrants berate them on their way to work - like we have to endure every day.

Also since the powerful people who run this country live in capital cities and not Canberra this will allow us to see more clearly who our politicians are hanging out with and are REALLY representing.

Dear Fred,

So you really believe that a change of location can bring about change of fortunes? And that politicians are unaware of the plights of ordinary people? How naive!

The electoral system was never designed or intended for representation: this "representation" and "democracy" talk is just a propaganda piece, part of the ploy, part of the jungle where men struggle for wealth and power. Suppose you were to be elected yourself - how long do you think you would survive and maintain your innocence there? Why would you be representing strangers when you have your own ideology, agenda and interests, not to mention your indebtedness to the power-brokers who brought you to that position? Perhaps you could represent your family and close friends, but that's about as far as it goes! Want an example? http://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/sep/13/aung-san-suu-kyi-myanmar-icon-rohingya

You are concerned about foreign "leaders"... imposing their laws as they see fit, but how about the locally-born leaders who already do exactly the same? What comfort is there in knowing where your oppressor happened to be born?

You suggest that «That way politicians can get stuck in traffic and have rude immigrants berate them», but is there a shortage of rude Australian-born people? In any case, the politicians will avoid traffic congestions by using hovercrafts of sorts: the technology is advancing and unlike you and me, budgeting for such fancy means of travel would never be an issue for politicians (and before this technology, they were simply accompanied by police-vans with sirens that cleared the roads for them).

Since you mentioned it, secession of states from the commonwealth could be a good step forward in the direction of democracy: when smaller states legislate independently, a competition is created, whereby state-politicians have an interest to make laws that favour their people, for otherwise their people might leave and move to other states that have less draconic laws.
