What I find strange though is the fact people at these rallies only ended up in Australia due to family members immigrating to Australia.
Andrew Hastie, although opposing further immigration, also benefits from his family immigrating to Australia also.
I would say the bigger issue here, is that we actually have a racism problem. These people objecting have a dislike for those from other countries, despite the fact their family members came from overseas.
It's all a bit strange really and very selective.
What I also find strange about this whole scenario is Aboriginal people had land taken away from them by people from overseas. I don't see any objection from protestors or Andrew Hastie about that.
Yes we should have a discussion about immigration in Australia in terms of sustainable population numbers and the environment, but bringing other issues into the debate like race have nothing to do with the issue. After all most people in Australia came from elsewhere or had family members who did.
Could you imagine if we were barred from entering or told to leave? We have always been a generous, open place that welcomes people and should continue to do so.
