Sorry about the lack of formatting. However, the figures show based as a % of Australia's population Asian immigration as 6.5% compared with the value of 9.8% non-Asian immigration.

Didnt mention the students i notice Swan 42.

so if we add all the asian countries together Pauline was right about being swamped by Asians then???

Hey DD Trump has had a win.Carrier AC arnt moving to Mexico now.He threatend a 35% tarriff.Also Apple are considering building the I Phone in America.

After today's sell off announcement surely its the last straw for Barnes buffoons!! And anyone who votes this mob back in next year should be ashamed of themselves really! Disgrace of a Govt and a legacy that will be worse than any other we have had here in WA.

Turns out Hanson was more honest , more prophetic and more accurate than the lot of them...

Source countries
The largest source countries of migrants for 2015–16 were:
• India with an outcome of 40,145 places (21.2 per cent of outcome), up from 34,874 (18.4 per cent of outcome) for 2014–15;
• China with 29,008 places (15.3 per cent), up from 27,872 (14.7 per cent); and
• United Kingdom with 18,950 places (10.0 per cent), down from 21,078 (11.1 per cent).

Asians now making up at least 36.5% of annual intake and growing! while traditional sources fall off the radar..10%!

Have they forgotten something?

Like a $40Billion Deficit,the so called responsible economists gave racked up out of nowhere?

Conveniently yes!It'll be all Labor's Fault if course,dating back to 2008 and before then.

If they get 11 Billion for Western Power then it sounds like a good deal to me, has full support from every economic analyst I have heard interviewed, cant see any reason not to do it, but I just don't think they will get as much as 11 Billion.

Mc Gowans hasn't said much , but I reckon they will end up flooging some assets as well, good chance the Port will go once the Nationals are out the way.

Unka2 BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT RELEVANT. If you think that they should be included then SHOULD WE INCLUDE ALL THE VISITORS? The answer is NO. The proof is in the ABS statistics given above.

Further if you want to see how disgraceful the Nationals are just listen to the incoherent Barnaby Joyce in question time now.

The proof is in the DIMA figures,,,Hanson was right - to quote her? Please Explain why we need 180,000 immigrants a year, now mainly from Asia with India and China leading the way ... when unemployment is growing , we have a housing affordability and apparent shortage homeless and waiting lists and our health and medicare/welfare system is under strain not to mention public transport etc etc etc....Foreing students visitors yeah right,,,pull the other one, they come here on a student visa, apply for a permanent visa and then end up staying and then get citizenship, hey presto mum and day get in ,,hence the huge disparity in parent reunions - 4000 Chinese...

not to mention the property scam that allows Chinese buyer to circumvent the foreign ownership laws - buy a property in the student visa name, while mum and dad fund it and wait to move over, forcing prices up.

fark how gullible and gormless are you swan...

nothing wrong with Barnaby rather him than that bloke WONG.
