And yet we had an actual recorded case of an immigrant with previous form setting up sex trafficking on the watch of Morrison or duttonI do see your point, but you're looking for reasons that people should agree with you and not for why they aren't.
You're quite welcome to assume anything you like about ON voters but I think there are going to be far more regular people ticking that box for entirely not racist reasons than you're assuming and that's going to lead to false assumptions from you later about what the vote means.
The ALP exists because of the unions, everything the unions do is a reflection therefore on the ALP and they are deeply rooted within it. So when the CFMEU pressures state government to decriminlise prostitution and then sets up brothels, and state government police are politely asked to not investigate human trafficking invovled, that's ALP and their voters are complicit.
Not a fair comparison for ALP voters who ticked that box because they didn't like Morrison or Dutton.
How do you define control?Great point. I'd also like it to be a constitutional requirement for people who have power over Australians to be elected, not just empowered by executives who are.
I think they are labelled like that as those labelling them have been conditioned by the media to do this.Voting outside of that doesn't make you a communist or a nazi, it's just a lot easier to label people that when they have vested interests in the system staying the same.
Interesting stat there

Foreign Facebook pages have been promoting One Nation. It wants them to stop
An ABC NEWS Verify investigation uncovers a raft of foreign Facebook accounts targeting Australian users. And they're just the tip of the iceberg.www.abc.net.au
Well, no, they are being labelled like that because they are supporting a party that has discriminatory racist policies as the core of its platform and whose leader and members have publicly stated their racists views over and again over decades in the public spotlight. Their views are common knowledge so anyone supporting them can't claim ignorance (well, not that type of ignorance anyway).I think they are labelled like that as those labelling them have been conditioned by the media to do this.
There really does need to be laws about financing or using bots and AI in relation to politics.Apparently using foreign bots is ok … Australian values

it's their stated position.of all the things to blame one nation for...interest rate hikes, thats an interesting position.
So it had nothing to do with money printing by liberals during covid
more money printing by labor funding fradulent NDIS and the biggest public sector workforce.
pumping immigration = increasing demand and more inflation. = interest rate hikes.
5% house deposits = pumping housing demand and = more pressure on hiking interest rates.
but its One nations fault ??? who is in government.
ANZ are predicting 75 basis point increase this year.
Finally.Plenty of people on here should be thrilled.
Lower house prices!
Finally.
Well if we want affordable housing ever again, we have to bite the bullet.Who is housing the continual flow of immigrants that’s needed to prop up the income tax base and feed the tertiary revenue sector?
You understand what lower house prices means vs rising house costs/inflation means don’t you?
Even worse supply than there is right now, which is the worst I’ve ever seen it in over 25 years. It’s hard to imagine it even lower.
Lower credit availability also.
Well if we want affordable housing ever again, we have to bite the bullet.
It took 30 years since Howard recklessly turbocharged everything to get to this parlous state, and we can't turn it round overnight, or without quite a bit of pain, but personally I think affordable housing should be a higher societal priority than investor returns. I guess that's where we differ.
Yes affordability of everything not just housing should be the highest priority.Well if we want affordable housing ever again, we have to bite the bullet.

But not by plummeting house prices, 2/3 of the electorate either have a mortgage or own their home - the bulk of that are likely just home owners or mortgagees, not multi property investors. They're not gonna wanna see their house price plummet.
The investor you're talking about are definitely the minority.
The only people hurt by a fall in prices are investors, provided interest rates are rising and they might be forced to sell.Yes affordability of everything not just housing should be the highest priority.

So the young family who's house they just bought was 750k is now 500k, but nah doesn't hurt them coz they got a roof over their head, they'll be right.The only people hurt by a fall in prices are investors
I don't have the answers, but on the bolded, I fairly assume that borrowers meet certain criteria to meet payments.Also, who’s guaranteeing the mortgage debt?
The Australian government? Trillions in property value and debt? It’s too large, even for them.
Or are we assuming most average mortgagees in this climate have the cashflow to pay the bank for the loss of asset value when they call up their mortgages?
Unlike capital gains, banks ask you to realise the loss immediately or they sell their security to cover the risk.
Plenty of supply though! You just annihilated 1 group of the working class to try and help “affordability” for another.
The banks and solicitors get richer though, with all the fees and foreclosure costs..
