Shadow Home Affairs Minister Kristina Keneally triggered the stoush at the weekend by aruging Australians must get a first go at jobs. Speaking with Sky News, Mr Husic said the government’s current position to “import skills” was “non-sustainable in the long term”. "There is a discussion to be had about favouring permanent migration over temporary workers. Through this crisis we have seen temporary workers abanonded.
They have been brought here in big numbers … and left to fend for themselves,” he said. "I think it is an important discussion to be had about the way in which migration is shaped into the long term and also taking into account the way the government has denied or held back opportuntiy for Australians from getting the skills they need to meet what employers want to see and they have just relied on the importation of skills instead of building them locally.
Why is it politicians never talk about training our own people, upskilling our own people, retraining our own people, laying the ground work in order to increase apprenticeships? Taking the lazy way is all they're capable of.
Dear CCP - Ed Husics ALDI bag of cash needs looking at.
The Labour Party is irrelevant You made your bed now sleep in it (for a decade)
Labor Kristina Keneally says Curtail Immigration, Australian workers first
migration has to be limited and then ONLY for those that can contribute, assimilate, identify and became fully Australian in the true sense of the world. Multiculturalism is failed far left/socialist/Marxist idea that doest not work and simply creates crime infested ghettoes.
Put a vote to the Australian people!
Number 1. Better screening services. Islamists must denounce Sharia Law as part of entry. Can hear it now. Religious bias you say? Sharia is a governing law that sits aside from the religion. Not part of the religion. Adopted.
'Internal tussle' over the obvious.
Discussion 'can we be as xenophobic as ScoMo and Mr Potatohead?' 'No, but if we give it a crack we might win a few more votes from the voters who we all know to be yokels and rubes'
It will be hard to introduce sound & logical strategies in the face of globalist Bolshevism

Govt 'emotionally blackmailing' Australians to download CovidSafe app | Sky News AustraliaMany Australians have not taken kindly to the government's 'disgusting and demeaning' messaging on its CovidSAFE app, according to Sky News contributor Daisy Cousens.\n\nUsing Bluetooth, the app traces prolonged contact of other users within range for 21 days allowing health authorities to quickly contact people who have been in contact with someone who tests positive for coronavirus.\n\nThe government argues this process will streamline the process of finding contacts who have been exposed to the coronavirus, reducing the time the disease has to spread throughout the community.\n\nPrime Minister Scott Morrison has previously suggested the app needs at least 40 per cent community buy-in for it to be effective and has ruled out making the service mandatory.\n\nHowever, the government has been increasingly linking the lifting of stringent COVID-19 restrictions to the number of Australians who download the app, with Health Minister Greg Hunt tweeting last week: 'Want to go to the footy? Download the app.'\n\nMs Cousens told Sky News the government is attempting to 'emotionally blackmail' Australians.\n\n'Australians are being emotionally blackmailed into allowing the government to trace their contacts, which is a massive deal ... on pain on being effective house arrest,' she said.\n\n'I would actually respect the government more if they bit the bullet and made it mandatory, then at least they would be honest in their intentions.'\n\nImage: Getty They have similar app in India and its useful to track corona cases near you. It’s your right to say no. We won’t be blackmailed!

Implementing a land tax would alter the ‘entire structure of our democracy’ | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Rowan Dean says if the New South Wales government brings in a land tax on primary residences it will change “the entire structure of how our democracy, our property-owning democracy works”.\n\nNSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian and Treasurer Dominic Perrottet have announced the state-based taxes of payroll tax and stamp duty will be removed which will relieve the financial burden on many in the state.\n\nHowever, Mr Dean said although this announcement was “terrific” something has to replace stamp duty and there are only two ways to reform the tax system, either through raising the GST or implementing a land tax.\n\nHe told Sky News host Paul Murray, the premier and treasurer need to “level with us” and admit they’re considering a land tax to replace stamp duty.\n\n“Are you planning a land tax, because if so, you need to take that to the electorate”.\n\nA land tax would mean “you never ever own your house, the state always has a finger in your pocket,” he said.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia We already pay local land tax, we are top heavy with Gov departments trim them back and save millions, we need efficient management not more taxes on the struggling public.

Until communist China democratises ‘it cannot join the modern world’ | Sky News AustraliaFormer Victorian Liberal Party President Michael Kroger says the dispute between the US and China is both a “cultural and a country clash”.\n\n“You’ve got a repressive dictatorial communist regime in China, clashing against the transparency of modern democratic nations in the west”.\n\nThis comes as US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the “Chinese Communist Party did all that it could to make sure that the world didn’t learn in a timely fashion about what was taking place”.\n\nMr Kroger said the US and other western nations are all “expecting a suppressive secretive regime to do what we would do” which is conduct a open and transparent investigation into the origins of the coronavirus.\n\nHe told Sky News host Andrew Bolt, of course the Chinese government do not want to be “fully embarrassed” by a full scale inquiry because it would do “decades of public relations damage at a time when that country is trying to become part of the modern world”.\n\n“Until it democratises, and god knows if that will ever happen, it can’t join”.\n\nImage: AP\n Australia obeying Trump's belligerence - obedience is a virtue of lapdogs We need to stop kidding ourselves about the nature of the PRC: it is a totalitarian dictatorship committed to remaking human society in line with 'Xi Jinping Thought', which is mandated in its Constitution. And, no, I am not making any of this up. And Australia is stuck. Do they appease their geopolitical masters or their number one customer/trading partner.
