Coming from Mean Albo, immigration 'cuts' have little credibility

By Stephen Saunders - posted Friday, 7 August 2026


Upon the December 2025 Bondi slaughter, Albo at once ring-fenced mass-migration. Overnight he framed the "debate" as guns and antisemitism. Nobody blinked.

For the political classes and powerful "stakeholders", the problem is less him and more Donald Trump or Pauline Hanson. Or look-over-there at Stella, Barnaby's dog.

For Albo himself, his worst problem is ordinary voters, even though they gave him a big election win. Their majority still desires lower or much lower immigration. The majority are still patriotic. But when Albo looks in his left-mirror - they're just Not Who We Are.

Hence his 75% population replacement, racially preferential migration deals with Boss Modi's India, burgeoning Indian or Muslim electorates on top of the Chinese.

Can we believe, this UN activist will now rein in immigration, to cover his ass?

Albo's Bondi Commission protects mass migration

How come the Akram family, the father a non-allegiant resident for 27 years, received indulgences? They were on the national-security radar - then dropped off. Though 'twas delayed, NSW cops eventually licensed their impressive gun arsenal.

Albo's gun measures have fallen in a hole. Good intentions aren't enough to overcome special interests and bureaucratic hurdles.

The intimidation of Jewish communities, especially in the migration-magnets of Sydney and Melbourne, has escalated in recent years and more so since 2023. The Commission wouldn't link this, to indiscriminate mass migration.

Instead, tit for tat, Albo's Jewish envoy is pitted against his Islamophobia envoy. The submission of the first allows that Islamist extremism is one of four "main sources" increasing antisemitism. The second claims antisemitism and Islamophobia have "common drivers" - but our "diversity" is always a strength.

In later evidence, the Jewish enjoy dumped on government-broadcasters ABC and SBS. No different to dumping on the government - equally futile.

The Commission's Interim Report, to the extent made public, is inconsequential in its recommendations. Expect similar, from the final.

But divisive Albo has "dealt" with Bondi, can continue with world-beating immigration, whilst hectoring voters and even schoolchildren to mind their "social cohesion".
