With respect Struggler, I only read the first one and decided to give it away.
I should observe that there are four people credited with researching Pauline's comments. That is a lot of money. And these guys claim this is a "fact check"! I would like to know why my taxes are being wasted on these clowns at SBS??
Anyway, let us look at the first one.
Pauline has said , according to them : "
We are in danger of being swamped by Muslims".
What do these people do? They say: "
According to the 2011 census there were 476,291 Muslims in Australia, just 2.2 per cent of the total population" and "the total annual immigration intake across all religions is 190,000 (0.8% of the total population)".
ISSUES:
1. Pauline said
"we are in danger of" - she did NOT say we are swamped. So clearly they have no command of the English language. If thy did they would have addressed the issue of being "in danger of".
2. They go to the 2011 census.
This is the year 2016!!
3. To address the issue of being in danger, they should have addressed the birth rate of different sectors within the population, the level of sectoral immigration, etc and made projections based on this.
There are heaps more but I really do not wish to waste any more time. I would give that bunch of clowns 0/10!!
