Malcolm Roberts calls for an inquiry into immigration policy

No comments
One Nation are the only party questioning the impact of immigration on our economy during the crisis. 

Senator Roberts has called for a straightforward parliamentary inquiry into the impacts of mass immigration on housing prices, rentals, wages, infrastructure (such as schools, roads, and hospitals), and social cohesion.

He has invited submissions from all sides, stating that if data shows immigration as a strength, Australians should see it.

Otherwise, our immigration policy needs re-evaluation.

King Albo of Multicultural Australia

No comments

With no credible opposition in sight, Albo struts around like he is the King of Multicultural Australia.

After failing to win The Voice to Parliament referendum, King Albo was forced to cancel the Assistant Minister for a Republic.

Multiculturalism, however, now has its very own Cabinet Minister.

In Question Time on September 1, Ashvini Ambihaipahar asked this Dorothy Dixer of Labor’s Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Dr Anne Aly:

How is the Albanese Labor government strengthening and building upon the success that is multicultural Australia.

In response, Dr Aly could not hold back her excitement:

For the first time, Australia has a standalone Minister for Multicultural Affairs.

Aly is also the Minister for Small Business. It’s a pity that small businesses are standing alone as their hopes and dreams are dashed on Labor’s socialist beachhead.

For a beachhead it is.

Alexandra Marshall wrote in the Unfiltered newsletter:

The narrative of Multicultural Australia is coming under intense scrutiny, including in the Senate where One Nation has pushed for an inquiry to get to the bottom of whether or not diversity really is our strength, economically speaking. Well, according to Michael de Percy, Anthony Albanese appears to see himself as the King of this ideological movement. ‘In the presence of his court jesters and an Opposition scared of its own shadow, King Albo presides over Conflation Nation.’

Terry Barnes wrote in the Morning Double Shot newsletter:

Michael de Percy tells us why the Prime Minister is ‘king’ of exploiting multiculturalism for political gain better than your scribe ever could. As his article’s subtitle says: Australians deserve better; Middle Australians demand it.

What a crock. Treasurer’s talkfest forgets to cut spending

No comments

Treasurer Jim Chalmers claimed this gabfest would forge consensus on bold reforms.

Productivity isn’t some esoteric puzzle requiring endless panels and PowerPoints. It’s the driver of our standard of living, but it’s been stalled by Labor’s bureaucratic bloat and fiscal profligacy. Chalmers’ roundtable, with its leaked Treasury advice hinting at timid outcomes like freezing certain expenditures, reeks of the same old Labor playbook: consult, delay, and deflect.

In the Unfiltered newsletter, Alexandra Marshall wrote:

Anyone else suspect ‘productivity’ might be Jim Chalmers’ code word for ‘raising taxes’? We’re hearing a lot of whispers leaking out of the roundtable about grave robbing (inheritance tax), raising the GST, a 2 per cent wealth tax, and other hikes. Tax is a punishment. Tax is meant to deter us naughty citizens from a bad activity. That’s the reason the government gives us for taxes on alcohol, cigarettes, and petrol. How does taxing productivity encourage productivity? What sort of magical money trees is the Treasurer planting in Canberra?
