"Tell me, how much immigration is there to islamic & asian countries? Do these countries treat their indigenous better than Australia ? Do they encourage newcomers to form minorty groups & provide social support to them so they can continue to bite the hand that feeds them ? I would be very interested in some statistics."

Multiculturalists generally tend to avoid hard statistics, so don't get your hopes up.

Just remember these simple multicultural orthodoxies:

1. Everybody is supposed to keep their culture, except people of European origins because then it's just 'racist'.

2. All cultures are equal, but non-Western cultures are more equal in terms of preservation.

3. Colonialism is always bad, but not when a Western country is colonised by Third World immigrants.

4. Diversity is to be encouraged, but just not of any opinion critical of multiculturalism, cultural relativism, or mass immigration.

It's like the new Islam - don't question, just obey!

Gradually with Education Australians are becoming more anti-racist.
During the fifties it was quite common for a blue collar worker to use the phrases, Coons, Niggers, Spades, Wogs, Slope Heads, etc. Personally in those days I would pull them up check them and shame them for the basic fools that they were. Today we see blue collar workers united arm in arm in Rights To Work marches organised by the Australian congress of Trade Unions. People can and will live together in harmony from all walks of life no matter from what background your family came from. Tribalism was from the past people in the fifties lived in fear they felt threatened today we do not. That is why the likes of Pauline Hanson and her remarks are now treated as a joke and she cannot string two words together the big problem is that Howard cleverly uses her to divide people.

I like the idea PH goes on youtube and not on "you-tubeless"
I liken her as US's Ron Paul who seems to make headway overthere,making inroads into peoples voices being heard, good on him.Pauline....go girl. You're not getting any help from the media as in the past.Tuberize yourself!

Desdender.

Very well said- Thank you.
Another poster has informed us there is a written MOU between Liberal and Labour NOT to discuss migration before an election.
Thats discraceful when you consider it is very much an issue.
Just as well they have Pauline to level things out a bit.
There is nothing wrong with Australians not wanting to be taken over.
We are proud Aussies and wont tolerate others trying to take over and change our country .
WE are kind and we will welcome you IF? you respect us.

Bronco Lane,
All the name calling you mention is from the whites' english. I assure you that all other societies have an equal amount of phrases to describe those other than themselves. In nearly 30 years in Indigenous communities in North Qld. I have heard phrases which, when translated into english, have no less meaning in their description of others such as the japanese, the papuans, the chinese, the malay etc. and, last but not least, the old "whitie".
But, going back to our resident ET, James Purser & it's fetish with racism. The reason (that's my personal view) why many people from islamic countries desire to settle here is because of a better life in a more tolerant society. The intolerant fanatics suddenly realised that the exodus of those people meant that they were running low on descent folk to use as innocent scapegoats for their incomprehensible mentality. So, plan B was to also go to the countries of the infidel & out of pure jealousy & mindlessness disguised as religion & stir crap. JP, do you really believe that any god would have you in heaven & supply you with several virgins while the missus just watches because you behaved like a dimgit on our planet ? You've got buckley's mate. If anything you'll end up in a cell with Bob Brown & James Kirby while Peter Garrett sits on the top bunk & plays background music on the ukulele. Wake up

wow have just counted the fors and against regarding Pauline United.
So pro rate on Primary and Preferentials Pauline Hanson would be Prime Minister. on this opinion poll.
I have always said that if you ignore a dog it will go away. BUT
in the early thirties their were millions on the streets of Berlin and other German Cities chanting Hail Hitler. After the war it was hard to find an anti Jew. We also saw the mass hysteria with Mussolini and Pinochet frightening. In London there were skinheads handing out leaflets for the National Front it was a sad day after fighting a world war and losing Uncles and Grandfathers in the war against Nazism. Now we see it all again I am Caucasian and have in-laws who have come from countries that 46 comments on this thread hace classed them as second class citizens in this country. Shameful Pauline does appeal to the impressionable, the basics and rednecks and on reading the arguments that they put up within this blog sums them up for what they are. Germaine Greer copied a lot of the progress that happened in Europe she was strong and brought about equality for women in the work place. Women only earned a third of a mans wage. My wife worked hader than any man in her office and only earned a third of their wages. While they sat in the corner picking their nose. Pauline Hanson would not be where she is now if it was not for the Labor Party and the burn your bra brigade they were no shrinking violets. Also do not forget the suffragettes they made sacrifices as did the Paul Robesons, Charlie Chaplin during the days of McCarthyism' Pauline is Australias McCarthy but not as articulate.
