(Still,-thanks PALEIF,- it was worth it just to see all these lovely replies!).

People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming
What is your problem with migrants and refugees? WE ARE GOOD PEOPLE!

You eat meat don't you? Recent immigrants are far harder to indoctrinate into veganism than pasty white locals who have not seen a farm for 3 generations. Hence any misleading scare campaign against immigrants (especially non-european ones) is going to help her cause.

This is symptomatic of the feelings of a lot of people in the community in general, who are now really starting to feel the pinch, as prices of everything seem to be spiralling through the roof! They are simply looking for someone to blame, or at least to listen to their woes!

I did notice a "reputable" person offer the opinion that Australia, although being a large country with a relatively sparse population, it has now passed its sustainability level commensurate with its current population, due mainly to harsh conditions and lack of infrastructure. He suggested that the Immigration level be either reduced or stopped altogether until the authorities can meet the infrastructure demands needed to accomodate the current population in a satisfactory and adequate manner!

We CANNOT spend the rest of our lives beating the "populate or perish" drum and we should be now setting an example to the rest of the world by accomodating the existing community in a sustainable manner!....we have sadly NOT learnt from Britain`s mistakes in its massive multiculturalism and gross overpopulation and we do NOT want this country to go the same way!

The age-old rhetoric of "we cannot get workers as Australians don`t want to work!" is wearing a bit thin!.......there are lots of people out there in the community drawing unemployment or family benefits who simply do NOT want to work. ....these people should be given the simple option,.. work or no support at all....then we would see how many "available" workers would appear!......Certainly there are a lot of people out there, who have squandered away their education opportunities and appear to the system as being unemployable, but lets face the real issue, these same people can be employed cleaning up the rubbish on the sides of the roads, and many other menial tasks that they consider unpalatable!......Everybody should be forced to do their share unless they are genuinely disabled or severely handicapped!

freediver, PALEIF has clearly stated in the past that they don't think pushing vegan habits is the solution to animal cruelty issues.

Their policy seems to be to support the use of local slaughter rather than live transport and to try to work to ensure that food animals are raised and slaughtered in the most humane manner possible.

I don't recall ever seeing them advocating not eating meat.

Vanilla,
Hey, I'm many of those things you listed and I didn't believe it for a second.

They sound more like the eager beliefs of a beer swilling, Commodore-driving, TCN 9-watching, Telegraph-reading, John Laws-worshiping, poofter-bashing, suburban-living, Anna Coren-watching, refugee-hating, Howard-hugging, abos-get-a-better-deal-than-whites-saying, eBay-shopping, Liberal-loving moron.

Just the sort of thing you hear vomited up by the shock-jocks eh?
