Geez you blokes talk a lot of rot.

This is the real Tony Abbott.

“There’s no doubt that our country has been amongst the world’s most successful immigrant societies and this reflects the welcome that the Australian people have traditionally extended to newcomers including those from a vast variety of backgrounds. As well, it reflects the efforts that migrants have made to contribute to their new home. The policy of multiculturalism, which all sides of politics support, expresses our willingness as a nation to let migrants assimilate in their own way and at their own pace, because of our confidence in the gravitational pull of the Australian way of life.”
Tony Abbott 2012

"[Our] multiculturalism is a beacon of hope to a troubled and divided world," he said. "People from all around the four corners of this earth have come to this country of ours to be welcomed by us and to build a better life in freedom, for themselves and their children."
Tony Abbott 2013

Seems to me we have a genuine champion of multiculturalism in our prime minister Tony Abbott. To say otherwise would impugn that he is a devious liar capable of doing or saying anything to get elected.

Steele, Mikk and others who think we are multicultural.

Guess what, you have been had.

Just read and understand what is said on page 1 of this thread.

If we were MC, musims could legally have 4 wives, Honour killings could take place and young girls could marry. Homosexuals could be punished and dog meat consumed. These are examples of all sorts of alien cultural practices that are not currently legal. Look around the world, there are many weird and alien cultural practices that we do not allow. We only have one official language.

Yes we have been deceived by the MC fraud since the 1970s. The politicians have lied to us and we accepted it.

We are mono-cultural and only allow those cultural aspects that are European in origin. The sooner we dispense with the farce of multiculturalism the better off we will be.

Face it, we are multi-racial but not multicultural.

Here is an interesting link that's worth reading
on the subject of Multiculturalism and Australia.
It deals with government policies as well as the
debates and controveries surrounding this
highly emotive issue.

The Conclusion at the end sums things up rather well:

That is one person's view Foxy and it is dated.

Did your Googling ever enearth any evidence of government ever getting a mandate for the endless-diversity-we-have-to-have? This is supposed to be a democracy.

It's actually more than just "one person's opinion."

It is in fact - a Research Paper based on Key References and
Resources. On Key Australian Government Statements and
Reports. Plus Australia's highly respected and well
known Immigration Authorities such as Dr James Jupp,
Dr Luke Buckmaster, and Dr Mark Rodrigues, helped with insights,
and assisted in the preparation of this Research Paper.

Of course the paper will only make sense for those who are
capable of mentally processing the material.
It's obviously not for everyone.

OTB,
Despite the appearance, Foxy's link is not an official document by the Parliamentary Library. (surprised there is no disclaimer)

The author, Elsa Koleth is not employed by the federal Parliament. She is employed by others. You can google her name.

However the doc should be retained as it contains useful information, especially links to other official docs, and could be handy for a quick reference for some issues.

I found it an interesting read. It basically confirms the short historical facts that I gave in this thread. Thanks Foxy.
