An Age of Magic

A move back to mobile homes…?

Mum has been telling me that Australia has record levels of homes being repossessed and homeless people – while at the same time immigrants are arriving getting access to all the jobs and housing. Another friend told me that in Sydney it is impossible to get a job unless you wear a turban or are asian or a foreign student…

I remember back in the 80’s when manufactured homes were an economical way to get into a first home especially for young couples but I wonder if those days still hold true. Park rents went up when we were in recession and even retirees found it hard to maintain their mobile homes. Still it remains though that Australians are finding themselves being sidelined in their own country as Kevin Rudd has undone all the work John Howard did to decrease levels of immigration. My son has been unemployed for three years – and yet in his area the shops are almost exclusively staffed by Indian and Chinese students who can barely speak english.

Whose country is it now…?
