Superb work by Friendly Jordies, who describes mass immigration as the “economic meth” of the property lobby.
Jordan’s arguments will sound very familiar to regular readers of MB, but obviously delivered in his trademark style.

Good to see him not automatically agreeing with everything Rudd says.
Exactly. He’s a paid shill.
Mate, you come across that way yourself.
Nope. There isn’t a party I’d align with, or you would have named one.
You think LNP pay me for 20 years to rail against immigration? It wasn’t until 15 years ago it dawned on me it was Labor not opposing that was the problem.
Precisely. They can complement each other’s brilliant work, like yin and yang.
Oh yeah, losing control of borders and destroying the plebs and environment party was a fantastic moment in Australia’s history.
What are you talking about!!!!
Brilliant.

Even if he doesn’t achieve anything else, he has brought down the Grease Ball. And helped to expose Merdejiklian.
What a great young man.
Gee, that’s not very woke (in its true definition) of you.
Brilliant. And funny enough I snarfled my way through an excellent rack of lamb without noticing what it tasted like. That guy is very good. Never bothered to watch his (their..) stuff but will now. Thanks Mr Jordie.
Write a comment under it about Labor being pro immigration as well and see what happens.
We’ll see how long my comment lasts.
Nicely said. I like it.
I’ve screenshot what I wrote and the reply. He’s a nasty piece of work. Nothing OTT. It’s on my pc. I’ll upload it to weekend tomorrow.
@mackak…”He’s not really friendly”
He must lurk around here and recognises my user name; totes.
Actually I guess that’s a good sign for his integrity. He’s passionate (but young and dumb) and not just doing what he’s paid to do.
COVID reduced net migration to zero and below. A genuine “sliding doors” moment. Five months out from the election, the Morrison-Albanese government has already decided we’re going right back through the Big Australia door. For ever.
Jordies gets nowhere near that rank bipartisan assault on voters. Instead, he mugs that Big Australia is primarily a Liberal-LendLease thing. Having a big audience, and a big opportunity, he has blown it. So disappointing.
Tell him he’s dishonest.
He’s not really friendly.
Spurned? Do tell!
Epic. Now go viral you

Open the comments and scroll down and do a search for “labor”
Lots of comments highlighting how fked Labor are. People are starting to see the obvious. Wheels may be finally starting to turn.
At least he’s a young man with a voice …………..let’s have an army of others ….
I can’t believe there are not more angry young, the Aussie dream will not be available to most of them.
“Shane’s Park sounds like a caravan park in Port Macquarie.”
The issue isnt the political parties, its the bureaucracy in Canberra. They control government. The politicians are just their front men. Given the woeful quality of politiicans education, experience, IQ and character, these people can only play the man, not the ball, and they simply allow the Cabinet Secretariate and senior civil servants to run the shop. The issue is the relationship between business interests and the bureaucracy.
Looked pretty factual to me.
