I don't like the idea of giving out aid to foreigners whilst people in our own country are homeless or on hospital waiting lists.
But sometimes our assistance can make a genuine difference during an emergency and save lives in those times we should give assistance.

Can't we have all the nanna's cook up a big load of ANZAC biscuits or something?
Send them over a few casseroles maybe?

Hi AC,

Foreign aid is not a one way street, we expect something in return, like strategic influence, economic benefits, peaceful relations. Plus some of us are not heartless people.

"whilst people in our own country are homeless or on hospital waiting lists." A matter of priorities, should we give tax concessions to billionaires? Why are people homeless or on hospital waiting lists, its not as straight forward as a lack of money. If Hanson had her way there would be less skilled migrants coming to Australia, that means less doctors, so hospital waiting lists get longer, less houses are built, no enough skilled tradespeople. We should be careful for what we wish for, it can be counter productive if a simpleton like Hanson were in charge.

for no other reason than they are not of his culture
Paul1405,
Your own mentality supports "We shall enter every house etc etc" & they're the ONLY culture no-one wants. Not as you so deceivingly hint at not of one's own culture. Do you work for ABC/SBS ?

Simply posting the rants of a far right 'YouTuber', who makes claims from extremists like Credlin and the Mad Monk is not evidence of anything.

Hi Indy,

YOU have convinced yourself that hoards of Islamic terrorists are invading Australia. That's not the case at all, look at the immigration figures and where people come from. Its simply a figment of your perverted imagination, living in the far north of Queensland, having entered the age of senility, and being affected by the hot sun. Who knows what YOU imagine isolated from reality as you are.

BTW are you still racially vilifying people YOU don't like?

Paul1405,
There you go again with your perverting of facts. It has already been made clear to you that it is not a matter of vilifying people one doesn't like. It's a matter of keeping people who openly are proposing to cause one's demise out of this Nation. I'm certain you'd be the last person to accept someone who openly threatens you, into your house ! Unless of course you can manipulate it into entrapment. What makes you think that those who promise to enter every house & give you the choice of being either a follower of that insidious groups or be a slave are not racists of the worst kind ? I think, you as a strong supporter & perhaps member, know the answer to that better than anyone ! It is clear from your posts that you're more than a mere sympathiser.
