Renewed calls to slow immigration as Australia rushes past 25 million : Comments

By Rex Drabik, published 20/7/2018

With Australia's population set to hurtle past the 25 million mark in August there are renewed calls in Canberra for a significant reduction in the country's sky-high immigration intake.

Over the weekend, our fool of a PM, instead of saying he would start listening to concerns about mass immigration, decide it would be good idea to send immigrants to rural areas (as if that hasn't been mentioned 1.35 million times).

Apart from being entirely un-enforceable, how stupid can he be! There are fewer jobs and infrastructure in the country than in the city. Kids are leaving country towns to get work. There is no money or inclination to build infrastructure in the country; they are not even doing it in the cities where it is more economical. Employers are not going to move to the country on a political whim.

The PM has proved that mass immigration is just about more votes for politicians (he overlooks the fact that most of those will go to Labor) and more wealth for his big business and developer cronies. Never have we had a PM with less interest in Australia and Australians. He is deliberately bringing people here, WITHOUT JOBS TO GO TO, when we already have a permanent unemployment figure of 750,000 people

ttbn Quote "we already have a permanent unemployment figure of 750,000 people".

That figure is from the Government so any money says the real figure is higher.

Yes, Philip. I shudder to think what the real figure is. There are probably many more people with no work, as well as casuals and the underemployed. The sad fact is that there is no work. Unskilled jobs and mid-range jobs have been deliberately let go oversees by the very same people who are killing the country with mass immigration. There are also a lot of bullsite jobs (unnecessary, and thought so even by the people doing them) that are veiling the true level of enemployment.

How about stopping immigration completely until all Australian citizens have a secure job and a roof over their heads. Handing over our country towns to immigrants is NOT a solution considering the average Aussie is struggling to survive as it is.

It's not just numbers of immigrants we should as a nation control, it's quality. Nobody should set foot in Australia who fails to accept the right of every resident to accept OR REJECT the requirements of any religion. Returning ISIS collaborators need to be put in prison for a decade or two followed by permanent expulsion from the country.

Send large nmbers of migrants to a country town and they take over the
town and you will need a passport from Iraq or somewhere to pass the border.
