I'm not whinging, you guys are whinging about immigrants. We could have chosen to go to any one of several countries (Aus, Canada, NZ) under skilled migrant criteria - we CHOSE this country.

Are you saying you are better than me, coz that is what this sounds like. Have you considered that my gain is actually NZ's gain as well ?
You don't even know me. We came here, bought a house, have paid it off, and I started a business. We have made a point of not sticking to the clique of folks from my previous country, but rather gone out of our way to fit into NZ society and make kiwi friends (several on here).

Before tarring every immigrant with the same brush and making all sort of general statements, you might want to consider individual cases and being slightly more open-minded.

Kiwis are known around the world for being open-minded, fair, and welcoming. I find this anti-immigrant stance very weird, especially considering the fact that working all over the world is part of growing up as a kiwi...

I'm not great at expressing myself, so apploggies for any offence caused.
I'm all for Immigration, if there's room.
But for me there isn't anymore. My problem is the out of control population growth.
I understand everyone is an individual.

I didn't like your statement about immigrats winning.
Not all of us kiwi are useless dole bludgers. Alot of us work very hard and for fuck all, just like Alot of immigrants.
