Note that although illegals were stopped, the number of immigrants let in legally under this guy (and everyone subsequent) was massive. Australia as it existed prior to 1990ish no longer even exists - the Australian people have been virtually completely replaced with third worlders and commie scum. Unsurprisingly, every year Australia more and more resembles the countries those people came from.
Yeah Abbot's an idiot. Listening to his speeches over the past few years he really has no idea about anything that happened culturally during his tenure. He was on Alex Antic's podcast IIRC and he had nothing of note to say beyond boiler plate boomer platitudes.
i heard he had a funny btfo moment with Putin or some other big dog leader during his time as PM. they came to visit for G7 or something, he went over and attempted to boast about our GDP or unemployment figures or some bullshit at the time (for some reason our country regards these figures as the most important of societal indicators and talking points to appear cultured and intelligent) - and it was so childlike that Abbott was laughed away
If the metrics themselves weren't fake and gay the sort of things those metrics (in theory) represent are boast-worthy if put in proper context: "We're so affluent and have such abundance even our poor are obese. Our great-grandparents couldn't conceive of such a thing."
Of course managerial types are incapable of thinking of things in those terms.
every other western country do boast about their GDP sure. I guess what I'm trying to get is that here it's revered even more-so; almost treated like a religion

It's not just Australia, pretty much every Western country boasts about GDP and unemployment rates.
