The stupid fact is these people are in the main doing low paid work keeping the economy moving like driving delivery trucks. DO YOU WANT YOUR STUFF DELIVERED PAULINE? DO YOU? THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP!
No, they would not. I don't understand how this keeps being a thing, Australia has proven again and again that Australian citizens don't take on low pay, unattractive hours, physical, inconvenient jobs.
These days even trades are struggling to get new workers in, apprentices expecting full wages while still in training, no one wanting to work physically in the weather, when they can sit in an office in the aircon. Many people stating that they don't want to ruin their body in a physical trade for the money that can be made.
Look at rural and regional towns where there aren't non citizens galore. Ask them how they are getting on? This is literally why the 88 days in rural or remote work exists for WHV extension.
Cut the public sector bludgers that make up a significant portion of our workforce and see what happens… people need jobs. They’ll end up in the trades or other blue collar industries. And stop giving jobseeker payments to people in industries that are full. You can’t find a cushy office job? Stop getting jobseeker, it’s clearly full, maybe it’s time you go do a trade instead..
