Absolutely. My family and I want to the Brisbane "March for Australia" ... I won't bother retelling our experience again, check my post history if you like - but it wasn't peaceful.

One of the lines we heard often from that screaming jeering pushy crowd was "I don't mind immigrants, I'm not racist, I just don't want the illegal immigrants here."

Mate, we're a fucking island, this isn't America. We put the illegal immigrants in an offshore detention centre ffs. It's not like they're hopping the border.

    Most illegal immigrants are poms that have overstayed their working-holiday visa.

    Yeah... I don't think there are as many of those as you think.

    No Aussie drivers licence, no healthcare, most places won't rent to you, can't build a life really.

    It's hard enough to build a life while minimising the data you spread around, but with the sheer number of services that require id and proof of right to be here I can't imagine there are a ton of these people.
