Foxy,

"Multiculturalism refers to the evolution of cultural diversity within a jurisdiction, introduced by its selection policies and institutionalized by its settlement policies."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiculturalism

This fits British society pre and post 1788 and Colonial Australia from 1788 onwards.

I hope that you plug your ears before you bury your head in the sand.

Dear Is Mise,

Try this on for size:

I rest my case!

Cheers.

Foxy,

I tried it for size and it don't fit!!

The 1788 Colony was multicultural and no one can prove that it wasn't, because it was and proving otherwise is impossible.

Just try!

Dear Is Mise,

You obviously have a problem with comprehension.
Go back and re-read the website given from
Wikipedia on Multiculturalism in Australia
and the number of colonies that existed in
this country in the past.

In any case - believe whatever you like.
The facts will remain unchanged despite you.

I'm done here.

Foxy,

"I'm done here".

True, very true; just like the repast commonly known as 'a dinner'.

To repeat the obvious, there is nothing in Australia's immigration program and administration that could prevent similar problems in Australia.

If there is an immigration control in place that will effectively deter and proof against the risk of a Rotherham (child sex trafficking) in Australia, by all means go right ahead and inform everyone.

What has happened to immigration policy is that the diversity tail is wagging the immigration dog.

The endless 'diversity-Australians-are-obliged-to-have' has become the overarching goal and priority at least as far as Labor's leftist 'Progressives' are concerned. The Labor leadership has lost contact with the rank and file membership of the Labor Party.
