This argument only applies to migration as such, with people applying , checked, filtered and selected ( I came that way) with no access to centerlink benefits for a while etc...I doubt most people link this type of migration to islam, the ones who cause or will cause problem are "refugees"/humanitarian inflows and the clerics who come with/for them.No job hope ever, welfare drain and nothing to do but get marginalised and turn into bombers or crims....We don't really import unskilled labour. Most of Australia's migration is highly skilled. The Brexiters, who could hardly be considered a pro-immigration crowd, want "an Australian style points based migration system". Even in the US the more moderate tea partiers want the system Australia has (I was actually surprised they'd heard of it). I'm not all that in favour of unskilled migration. The employment outcomes are pretty terrible. It's not like in the 1960s and 1970s when unskilled labour could land at Mascot on a Sunday and have a factory job on Monday morning.
not that the cycle was new, we have had our own as well, and we know the results from the start..so indeed why?
