Interesting graphics.
So it was Thatcher and the Tories that open the gate to England?
Australia is built on migration, literally.
However I know several India professionals planning on leaving only after two years here because it's -
1 too expensive
2 too expensive
3 racist
4 miss family
5 cheaper and better quality of life in homeland

Racist? - coming from an Indian ... gold.
They obviously come from a higher/wealthy class if they think they have a better quality of life in India.
Where they are not only racist .... but they have a caste system where they discriminate against their own - where the lowest castes can never aspire to wealth or to better their life.
They stay as shyte kickers.
In a country of 1.45 billion people where is there any space?
60% of whom live on less than $3.10 per day.(poverty)
As far as I'm concerned that sort can phuk off & don't let the door hit you on the arse on the way out.
Same applies to any migrant living here that bags the country.
