Social Media Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 The country closed its borders during COVID and told foreign students and backpackers to go home. It is now facing the West's second-worst employee shortage after Canada, with some companies offering signing bonuses and flying them in from overseas.

ozimoron Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Amazing considering the very rapid rate of immigration into Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should give Kiwis a better deal and plenty would go from NZ given the downward trajectory of the country under her. Go back to how it used to be would be good. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tonbridgebrit Posted January 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) Okay, so what exactly is the problem ? Australia has a labour shortage, that means not enough people working. Basically, some Australians want to see only white migrants from Europe turning up in Oz. But people from Britain and Sweden are simply not going to go to Oz in large numbers. White migrants from Eastern Europe might go. But some Australians are similar to the Brexiteers in England. These particular Australians don't actually like Eastern Europeans, even though Eastern Europeans are white. So who are the new people who are willing to go to Australia ? Coloureds from places like Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, etc. And indeed, some Vietnamese and Thais. Australians who don't like such new migrant workers should remember history. In the beginning, very few Brits actually wanted to go to Australia. Britain forced a load of it's own convicts and undesirables to go to Australia, as labourers. ????

Its nothing to do with racism , just like Brexit wasn't . Also its completely unacceptable to refer to people as "coloureds" these days and that is considered to be a racist term and you really should stop using that term 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinese and Indian nationals are now the largest group of migrants coming to Australia. https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/research-and-statistics/statistics/country-profiles/profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
