Nobody controls immigration to Australia
Nobody controls immigration into Australia. If Big Australia wants to increase it, they can't. If Small Australia wants to reduce it, they can't. When John Howard said, "But we will control who comes to this country," he was lying then, and it is an even bigger lie now.
34 Years of the Big Lie about Australia's 'declining' population
In early 1990 I changed my name to ZPG and stood for the NSW Senate because of the big lie - that without immigration, Australia's population is declining. It was so wrong then, and it is so wrong still. But recently Nine/Fairfax/ABC/SBS/News have been revving up the old propaganda. Is the big lie propaganda being orchestrated by dark hands?
Human population a major factor in habitat loss and biodiversity decline
On the eve of the International Day for Biodiversity (IDB), Sustainable Population Australia (SPA) calls on governments, including our own, to acknowledge that human population numbers and growth are primary causes of habitat loss and, in turn, biodiversity decline.
Victoria defaults on promised housing for young mentally ill - Melbourne City Mission, Homelessness Council
"The Victorian Government has failed to fund 500 housing places for young people living with mental illness almost three years after making the commitment – a key royal commission recommendation." (Council to Homeless Persons, Melbourne City Mission and Orygen) The homelessness press-release says nothing about how massive overseas immigration and investment has driven the excessive demand that has resulted in high prices and housing shortage, but this is the elephant in the room, and t

Konrad Yakabuski on why mass Immigration spells disaster for Canada - Article by John Meyer
Most Canadians hate state-engineered rapid population growth through mass migration, but Canada's public broadcaster, like Australia's, along with the corporate newsmedia, has for decades pretended that there was little opposition. The following article, from Canadians for a Sustainable Society, gives a history of the propaganda and the disaster, which many Australians may relate to, and reviews some signs of change.

Video: Stop Destroying The Housing Market - The Referendum We Deserve - by Biko Konstantinos
Funny and interesting delivery. "Australia has spent several months promoting and holding a referendum on the Voice for Indigenous Australians - all the while the Housing Crisis is destroying millions of Australians' Lives. This video highlights the critical issues that are destroying the Australian Housing Market which must be voted on now (with a referendum.)" (Bikos Konstantinos)
PM Albanese has Australia on course for 150m within life-time of a child born today
Australia’s population of 26.5m grew at the rate of 2.2% (year ending March 2023.) At 2.2% growth rate our current population would increase to 30m within 10 years and double in 31.85 yrs and would reach 150m by 2103, within the life-expectancy of a child born today. Less than 25% of that 2.2 rate of population growth was due to natural increase. Without the 454,361 migration, we would have grown at about 0.55%.

SPA: Annual growth of well over half a million undemocratic and unacceptable
Australia’s annual growth of 2.2 per cent (563,200 people) is undemocratic and unacceptable according to Sustainable Population Australia (SPA).
Today the ABS released its figures to the year ending 31 March 2023 showing the growth comprised Net Overseas Migration (NOM) of 454,400 and natural increase of 108,800.
Jacob Greber's "Why Australia needs millions more people - and is getting there fast," essay in dystopia
Jacob Greber’s Fin Rev article, “Why Australia needs millions more people – and is getting there fast,”[1] seriously proposes a shocking dystopia where a constant stream of imported people continuously boosts a so-called working age cohort. In the scenario he promotes, very soon the incumbent population of today will be completely supplanted, which is
‘Michael Brennan: make affluent local councils pay for 1.2 million homes target’ (The Australian)
The property development lobby, as readers of this site know well, constantly badgers government to raise migration levels in order to keep up demand for housing beyond that which would naturally occur without massive overseas migration.

"NIMBYism in Sydney is leading to racist outcomes," Developer agenda slurs democratic resistance to subdivision
Developers want to treat Australia as their backyard, and they want you to shut up.
ABC National helps UDIA push to cover golf-courses with housing VIC
We predicted this would happen when the Vic government put developers in charge of what happens to the many golfcourses in Melbourne and regional Victoria. The seizure of these green public and private lands is now being normalised on public media.
There's not enough housing - to the tune of "There's a hole in the bucket"
(The new words for this old song are by Quark and Neutrino.)
There's not enough housing, dear Liza, dear Liza,
There's not enough housing dear Liza, there's not!
Then build it, dear Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry
Then build it, dear Henry, dear Henry, then build it!
But how will I build it, dear Liza, dear Liza
But how will I build it with not enough tradesmen?
Self-serving Australian property & construction industry argue supply, ignore demand
The property development and construction industry is having a lend of Australia: By promoting massive migration numbers, it keeps housing and land costs high and it keeps its own costs low.
SPA: Australia’s population growth rate of nearly half a million ‘too high’

Multinational business does not want contraception to be easy
Twenty-four years ago I thought oral contraceptives should be cheaper and more available to reduce the pain and suffering of 100,000 abortions per year. ("Public hospital abortions and cheaper contraceptives needed, inquiry finds", Age 26/5). My wife had an expensive Little Collins St abortion with a previous boyfriend.
Mass migration isn’t good for Australia, and it’s never “properly planned and well managed”
Sustainable Population Australia (SPA) has questioned the claim by the Business Council of Australia (BCA) that ‘two thirds of Australians believe that properly planned and well managed migration is good for Australia’. BCA has asked a loaded question, to get the answer they wanted. Their result is directly contradicted by the more reliable Australia Population Research Institute survey. Here, 70% want net migration at somewhat or much lower levels than the pre-COVID 240,000.

Grasslands Audit - "It's like a doctor giving you a check-up but failing to report that you have a missing hand" - VNPA
“Yes, the audit is harsh in some of its detail, but it could have gone much further if it wasn’t so heavily constrained by its scope," say the Victorian National Parks Association, adding that, “It’s like a doctor giving you a check-up but failing to report that you have a missing hand." Candobetter Ed: Well, what else would be expect of a Victorian Government biodiversity audit, when high-rise developers have overtaken the state government? The bastards don't even want us to retain 1% of our grasslands, whilst they already have 90% of the nation's wealth!
