That goddam Emperor Penguin that showed up in WA should go back to where he came from!

That's not a country.

At the moment, the majority of us agree that immigration is necessary - particularly of skilled workers. We also agree that we need people in some trades desperately. But, it's a leap to accept unskilled people into tafe courses and apprenticeship programs.

I see the problems, no idea how to fix them.

I do know that we can't discuss it in a sensible debate. Particularly not in an election year.

Especially without investing in TAFE properly.
