Yeah, Christopher Luxon embracing the idea that social cohesion and immigration are incompatible. I think is buying into the anti-immigrant rhetoric that's being stoked by New Zealand first in particular, but also by the Act Party. Migrants to New Zealand are contributing enormously to our economy. You look at the jobs that they are doing. The people who are looking after some of our most vulnerable people are often migrant workers. You know, if you want to worry about social cohesion, worry about the fact that there are increasing numbers of people in aged care who are dependent on migrant workers for their care. Attacking migrant workers, making migrant workers the bad guys, is just wrong. Migrant workers contribute hugely to New Zealand.
