Bezza,

The Liberal Party should have had an immigration policy very soon after Labor was re-elected. Dutton, who turned from tough immigration minister to a real milquetoast offered a very small decrease that would not have earned a single vote from conservatives or anyone else seriously concerned by mass immigration.

Don't forget that Howard was a Big Australia man. He certainly decided that there would be no illegal immigrants, but he sure made up for it by bringing them in legally.

Nobody seems very excited about Angus Taylor. He was there all the time the Liberals were in opposition, bleating about 'holding the Albanese government to account' when the should have been smashing the Albanese government. That's the problem with the uniparty: there's very little difference between being in government and being in opposition. The Liberals have done buggerall opposing - even got together with Labor on crushing freedom of speech. And nothing Mr. Taylor has done since he entered politics indicates that the Liberal Party will be of much use to us.

The only party with a clear immigration policy is One Nation.

Bezza,

No official policy yet, but I have just caught part of speech in which Angus Taylor said what he wants for immigration:

. Australian interest its only purpose
. Australia values at its heart
. Door shut to anyone not subscribing to Australian beliefs
. Door shut to people wanting to bring hatred and violence from another country.

He didn't say anything about the necessity to slash numbers; dismantle multiculturalism that encourages immigrant enclaves, nor how he plans to straighten out, or rid the party, of leftist wets.

How he intends to smarten the screening of potential immigrants would be good too.

Another Israel firster,
- Another traitor.

These feel good motherhood statements are great, but how are they achieved, and how do you rate a new arrivals "Australianess"?

All well and good, flag, anthem, values, ANZAC Day, Ned Kelly, meat pies, kangaroos etc etc. As for immigration Australia is 85,000 short of trades and professional people right now. As we have learnt in the past PAULINE HANSON and her ONE NATION are great on populism but way short on substance. But this appeals to old farts and other non thinkers.

One way to increase home building and reduce immigration rates would be
to stop all migration except for those in the building trades and their
families and returning Australians who had taken out other nationalities.
Crash TAFE courses for plumbers and elecricians in regulations needed to
enable licences to be issued.
Some special cases might be needed. eg specialist doctors etc.
All that would have a dramatic effect.
A special team to examine special cases would be needed.

Bezza,

Yes. Stop all immigration while the current system is thoroughly investigated.

Apart from the burden on housing, infrastructure and Australian culture, and the violence it has brought here, current mass immigration hasn't made any difference to the 370,000 jobs that employers cannot fill.
