The far left extremists,  or the middle right free trade extremists?

They seem to be in immigration loving alliance to me.

The right likes the free movement of capital.  It hates the idea of the free movement of labour.

The left likes the free movement of labour. It hates the idea of the free movement of capital.

I'm in the middle, I like the idea of the free movement of both capital and labour.    Indeed, if the world introduced a 1% tax on all capital movements, we wouldn't need any more taxes.   If we allowed the free movement of labour, there would be no more labour shortages, nor the need to guard borders.   Scott Morrison might be out of a job though...

In Australia we don't have a far left in fact we barely have a moderate left. What we call the left in Australia is in reality a moderate to centre right. Many who consider their politics to the right are between a centre and fairly extreme proponents.

Labor's left would be barely left of centre, The greens could be considered a bit further left but not much.

The right of the Liberals are verging on extreme right with some clearly crossing the line, unfortunately this is the group currently in control, the moderate right or small l's have almost been dispatched by the stronger group.

In terms of free trade they are both almost as bad as each other. I have no real problem with free trade but it seems that the deals we make are only free trading for the other side, we end up with about as many restrictions as we started with, we have lost on all the trade agreements.

We currently have a series of pretend free trade agreements that are not typically to our advantage.

the greens have tossed the  environment out in favour of extreme ultra leftism.

The far left looneys don't operate in a party called the socialist communist mao tse tung party. They operate in many government funded operations and government jobs, and in the media. And most importantly (to those scum bags)primary school etc.

They don't need a party. They've infiltrated and filled pivetal positions in many areas.

They are combating awareness of this by currently using the term ," when you are a little bit left of centre like me..."

Assholes. They twist language. Assholes.

"what is destroying Australia more....?"

Greed.
