    ….
    In the tourist industry they have all the advantages, as in real estate sales where 8 out of 10 of the top salespeople were Asians.

    The Australian Productivity Commission concluded that there was no discernible benefit to Australians from immigration, it had all been captured by the migrants.
    Greg Clydesdale estimated that our immigration policies, because of the way they affect interest rates as we borrow to fund infrastructure cost the average mortgagee (from memory) $35,000. However immigration is pork chop in synagogue thank’s the ideology of the left and self interested business community.

    EG From Afternoons with Jim Moira (but isn’t Jim this day):

    “Journalist 1.” [immigration] .is a very contentious issue at the best of times.”
    J2: “It can be very emotive subject given the way politicians try to make political capital out of it”.
    J1 “Indeed, indeed”

    They seem to imply that any discussion that is other than positive relating to immigration must be “political capital” (thereby indicating unprofessional bias).
