As its a little slow here this morning I have just looked at a few of the OP's posts - a common theme of them being abusive to anyone who dares question an opinion made (even to the great witch), and little thanks for helpful advice..

Opinions yes, racism no.

You however are being repeatedly abusive even after a Mod has pointed out the error of your ways. Please change the tone of your posts or you will find your posting privileges have been removed.

Many thanks.

They are the real scroungers.
Workers of the World Unite!.
I'd dispute that claim as a "FACT". It might be the case, it might not, depending on how you want to portray, read fiddle, the figures. As most of the figures supporting your 'fact' came from a Labour party, desperately trying to justify a massive, politically motivated, migrant surge I'd take any figures with a VERY large pinch of salt

Had I remembered it was you who'd used it recently I would indeed have nicked it off you. However my brain was deader than usual and I had to google.

I am not at all convinced that you will be able to locate too many like minded souls on the Gold Coast or elsewhere in Australia for that matter.
I could be wrong but suspect most immigrants are more right of centre with many views, if not particularly politically minded overall.
If you were located out West would have gladly debated views ......

I find this offensive and deeply racist. Anyone agree?
Not as offensive as I find this...
