dave it was Whitlam , the most incompetent prime minister Australia ever had, along with his cronies Grasby, Cairns and co who foisted Multiculturalism on this country.
The fact that it is now the norm and part of conservative politics is only because it was so entrenched in the system, that it could not be thrown out, only managed,but please dont try to con me that given the chance , the conservatives wouldnt fall over themselves to consign the divisive doctrine of multiculturalism to the dustbin of other failed socialist experiments. ..i still however live in hope that as the destructive elements of this PC monster manifest themselves more and more on the population and successive governments until one day, even the most gullible will see beyond doubt , what a disaster it really is.
The labor party was against the GST, wanna bet they throw that out?...huh ..huh?
"During the 1980s the Labor party élite not only promoted their cultural values enthusiastically, they also abandoned many of their older protectionist economic goals. Many workers who had suffered the imposition of alien cultural ideas may have experienced Labor's conversion to economic rationalism as a double betrayal. The workers' party which had been led by Curtin and Chifley and Calwell spoke for the battlers. The data in the accompanying article on patriotism, immigration and the 1996 election give some plausibility to the idea that many of these battlers do not now see Labor as their champion. In their eyes the Labor Party may have become, not a modernised defender of the working class, but a conglomeration of special interest groups, led by an intellectual élite with no especial affection for Australia or Australians.
