points. I think "perception" of immigration is more to the point. Language and Religous differences certainly play a vital role as said.
There is minimal difference in moving from one state to another in Australia, these factors just dont play a role.
Australians are generally great knockers - about themselves.
We have used immigrants to prop up a shortage of labour and this is ongoing. Migrants have filled the gap in unskilled labour that AUS are just too darn lazy to do.
Indigenous policy has continued to fail. Funding misguided, misappropriated, lack of these people to often help themselves. If you want to know about lazy this a prime area to look at. No poor bugger me syndrome from me thanks. My do gooda days are over.
