This is such a heavy topic for a watch, but Rita really doesn't hold back here. The point about living standards feeling the squeeze definitely hits home lately. Do you think there's a better way to balance growth without this approach? Let me know your thoughts!

We are in a serious recession here in British Columbia, the economy has gone flat since the non permanent residents and international students went packing back to their home countries.
@
Same in NZ.
You will find this has been the case for a good decade now

They are using the Dan Andrews model to make labor un beatable. Just Like Dictator Dan did to Victoria.

We all know this already.
Less talk, more action. Get rid of Albo, Labor, Teals and Greens!

Oh really, I’ve known that for quite some time now

Calling these Labor politicians clowns is an understatement

Cut the numbers right back, and be far more 'picky' on whos allowed in.

Yet here in the States the "great replacement theory" is being called a hoax (by those who benefit from it!).

This isn’t the core reason they are bringing them in. This may give them a little argument, but if they just wanted people, they would focus on like, Koreans, Japanese, Americans, Canadians, people from PRODUCTIVE areas….. but they make immigration from these places NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE. So why? Because they WANT to crash it all, and they need an army of loyal DEPENDENTS to act as an ARMY for them

ALP 2022 2025 and predicted to win a third term in 2028..

The LNP is still trying to recover from the bowels of despair after following the advice of Sky Australia to drop net zero 2050...

Old red is en route to suffer the same outcome that the Federal LNP did 🌪️....🚽

It's past time the Federal LNP listened to the young Liberals advice to distance themselves from sky Australia

Population would grow w/o migrants if they stopped telling citizens not to reproduce. 🤔
@
If there would be a recession without immigration then there should be a recession with low migration.
Labor is just hiding their incompetence while the recession happens on a per capita basis.
But then Labor aren’t new to screwing Australians by stealth or surprise with a few voter bribes thrown in to smooth it over.
@
Funny, that's the same argument in the US and UK. Politicians need to be tried for treason.

Labor party is artificially staying in power due to ludicrous immigration
