    I guess this just goes to show what everyone is saying.

    The left is shooting themselves in the foot. People care about immigration and the left won’t solve it. So they lose power, that’s democracy in action.

    If the left want wants they need to listen to the concerns of the people.

      People care about their economic well-being (which “the immigrants” are just scapegoats for) and the liberals abjectly refuse to do anything about that.

      But that still doesn’t excuse anybody flushing the rule of law down the toilet.

        People obviously care note about immigration than that. That’s how high of a priority it is I guess.

        Lack of cultural integration, homophobia, sexism, racism, religion, lack of local training and development, lack of capital investment, high housing costs, poor housing quality, wage suppression, increasing density of the country, crime, making places less desirable and more crime ridden.

        But no one ever wants to talk about anything that isn’t short term averages.

        I haven’t got an issue with immigration as a concept or necessarily as an average.

        But there is a reason no one complains about first, second, third generation Australians coming to their country not learning the language, not integrating, committing crimes and no treating women right. A lot of people on the left live in outright denial about immigration.

        Sure keep the upper class happy by keeping wages down and house prices high. Only costs you money, safety and community.
