I think of all the wonderful international students I have taught. They deserve a lot better than this ridiculous debate. #auspol https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-05-24/migrants-integral-members-australian-society-not-economic-asset/103884272?utm_source=abc_news_app&utm_medium=content_shared&utm_campaign=abc_news_app&utm_content=other
Migrants are integral members of Australian society, not just economic units to be managed

The recent debate highlights a deeper issue in how we treat those who come to Australia seeking better opportunities. It's time to reconsider how we view migrants and listen to their voices during times of public and political outcry.

The Morrison government’s failure to support international students during Covid restrictions was appalling & did enormous damage to our reputation as an education provider. There are whole sectors of our economy which rely on international students for labour, especially in hospitality. We are a country in the Asia Oceania region & need to act like it.
