    I?ve got thick skin mate, you can?t upset me. Let?s take the immigrant (me) out of the equation?do a quick google and see how many 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation Aussies feel the same way about the numbers that have recently come in, compounding the housing crisis. I?d say it?s high on the list of people that are totally pi55ed with the way Albo is running the country and probably why he?s only going to last one term.

    Ive still no idea why youre different from the immigrants youre complaining about. Presumably youre taking a house that could be owned/rented by 2nd 3rd 4th generation Aussies as well?

    In other news Trumps administration sides with Russia, N Korea and Belarus in a vote about Ukraine at the UN.

    It's because he's a "good" immigrant rather than a "bad" immigrant, the sort who pays his way and obeys the rules. Just like the vast majority over here who never, ever get mentioned in the media.

    I would think most countries welcome immigrants that come to work and integrate into their new home. We can learn a lot from different cultures. But also they don’t welcome the ones who come to sponge of the country or try to change it to the one they have left. They should first learn the language of their adopted country (yes that includes the ex pats in places like Spain). They miss out so much if they can’t speak the native tongue.
