@actparty How about just bring in 0 and start deporting thanks.

ACT’s immigration policy restores the basic bargain that New Zealand was built on. People are welcome here if they contribute, respect our democratic values, and help build the country.

Diversity is quite evidently not our greatest strength.

@actparty Just shut the fuck up we dont want more immigration.

𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗭𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 ACT is announcing new policy to make immigration work for New Zealand. One that welcomes people, but only if they share values of tolerance, freedom and democracy, help build infrastructure, and play by the rules. “New Zealand is a settler society. From those who arrived in open boats 700 years ago, to those who arrived at Auckland Airport this morning, our country has been built by people willing to make a journey to try and build something better,” says ACT Leader David Seymour. “Immigration has enriched New Zealand. In less than 200 years, New Zealand has gone from a series of isolated villages, to a network of modern cities connected by road, rail, air, and sea, with electricity, the internet, and the three waters. “Each wave of settlement has also built the Kiwi character that is respected around the world. Kiwis are recognised in everything from business to sport to peacekeeping as resourceful and thoughtful, firm but fair people who keep their word and can fix anything. “Today, Kiwis who are proud of our settler heritage are asking themselves why something doesn’t quite feel right with immigration. ACT believes their suspicions are correct. “Successive governments have let a skilled-migration system become a general-purpose labour tap. They have failed to enforce the rules they set. They have allowed infrastructure to fall further behind. And they have asked too little of people who want to benefit from the Kiwi character without supporting it. “The rate of settlement has overwhelmed the ability to provide infrastructure. Dunedin took 180 years to build, but we add the population of Dunedin in a couple of years while we struggle to build a hospital in Dunedin itself. “We are told that the immigration system is a strict one focused on delivering the right skills to New Zealand. On paper we do have a strict system, but even those who want to believe that cannot see it. Too often they shake their heads and ask, if we have a system targeting skilled migrants, how did a guy who can’t even find an address on GPS get here? “We recognise there are different issues in urban centres compared to rural New Zealand, where populations are lower and it’s a lot harder to find people willing to get up first thing in the morning and do a hard day’s work on the farm. “ACT’s policy restores the basic bargain that New Zealand was built on. People are welcome here if they contribute, respect our democratic values, and help build the country.” ACT’s six-point plan is: 1.⁠ ⁠Deport serious offenders ACT will ensure Resident Visa holders convicted of offences carrying sentences of 10 years or more can be deported no matter how long they’ve been here. This goes further than the Government’s current proposal to extend liability to 20 years. 2.⁠ ⁠Skilled visas for skilled jobs Accredited Employer Work Visas are meant to fill crucial skills gaps, but too often the gaps close and the categories remain wide open. ACT will have each skill category automatically expire every year. To remain open, they would need to show up-to-date evidence of demand. 3.⁠ ⁠Opportunity, not dependency ACT will introduce a five-year welfare stand-down for all residence class visa holders. That means no jobseeker support, accommodation supplement, or income-tested benefits for a migrant’s first five years here. 4.⁠ ⁠A fair contribution for infrastructure ACT will introduce a $6 per day infrastructure surcharge on temporary work visas, on top of existing charges. This ensures migrants contribute to New Zealand’s infrastructure from day one, before they start paying tax. The fee is expected to raise around $80 million a year, while remaining more affordable than comparable visas in Australia and the United Kingdom. 5.⁠ ⁠Stronger English language requirements ACT will extend basic English language requirements to all AEWV types. Lower standards will still be permitted for seasonal workers. 6.⁠ ⁠Enforce the rules There are 20,980 known overstayers in New Zealand right now. ACT will establish a dedicated overstayer enforcement unit within Immigration New Zealand. Platform employers such as Uber and DoorDash will be required to verify and report work rights. Employers who facilitate overstaying will lose their accreditation. Mr Seymour says the policy is designed to rebuild confidence in immigration by restoring fairness and accountability. “People are rightly cynical about politicians promising to slash migration numbers. In 2017, Labour campaigned on reducing net migration by 30,000. NZ First campaigned on reducing net migration to 10,000. The rest is history. “The two parties formed a Government, and after two years of their Government net migration had risen to 80,000. If it wasn’t for COVID closing the borders, they would have held the record for migration under one Government. “We need an immigration system that recognises New Zealand’s heritage as a nation of settlers. We need new migrants to grow and develop, but that migration must work for New Zealand. “Success requires a common set of expectations; respect our freedoms, uphold our democratic values, contribute to infrastructure, speak English, obey the law, and fill genuine gaps in the economy.”

@whatames5 @ZoomerHistorian Where did you go? The west is fucked almost everywhere. Running away aint gonna fix anything.

@ZoomerHistorian It’s too late it’s over, I left Nz 16 years ago the writing was on the wall

The 'fighting' taking place isn't working. New Zealand is becoming a second Rhodesia before our very eyes. Browns are swamping the place and Whites are being forced to emigrate. We are actively watching the destruction of New Zealand. In 50 years time there will probably be less than a million Whites left in New Zealand if this current course is kept up. New Zealand, firstly, needs global attention brought to it as it's the most at risk of going under. Secondly enough pressure needs to be built up to force parties to adopt Remigration policies. Otherwise a party will be created that does. Remigration is New Zealand's only hope.

@TruthFairy131 "Something has shifted" yea no shit fucking moron we imported too many randoms for our precious GDP oh my god the GDP!!! And no fuck them and their culture this is NEW ZEALAND we have a culture already and dont need random 3rd world cultures fucking things up. Deport.

‘NEW’ New Zealand 🇳🇿 The majority of new births in New Zealand are now ASIAN- Mostly Indian then Chinese. New Zealand has been conquered by India. Now that India (largest) & China will hold the future majority, NZ will change to cater for these cultures. Europeans & natives will become the new minority, only these minority groups won’t get special funding or privileges like other groups had. “Not only do we have the diversity that's already here but the future diversity of New Zealand is locked in. All the babies are going to look different". Without Remigration, NZ is gone forever.

@JosephMooneyMP FUCK YOU AND YOUR SHIT PARTY

Pretty odd antics on New Zealand X this week about a free trade deal with India, a country that is on track to be one of the worlds largest economies, is a democracy in a world where those are very rare and authoritarianism is growing rapidly, and provides a massive new market for our trading nation in an era of the greatest geopolitical uncertainty in the last 80 years. Rather than celebrating that; some have been trying to replicate some of the “great replacement” social media angst sweeping Europe - in some cases for what appear to be cynical political reasons, for others out of misunderstanding driven by what they’ve seen from those trying to scare them at a time when they already feel uncertain about the world. The reality is that New Zealand’s sovereignty over permanent immigration, residency pathways, and citizenship remains fully intact. The agreement is limited to temporary mobility, and does not create or lock in any permanent outcomes.

@elenadesaa1999 Unfortunately me yes.

Manifiéstense gente de 1990- 2000 que no están casados y no tienen hijos. Alguien más?????????

うつ病の治し方で調べても「朝散歩！筋トレ！入浴！」みたいなのしか出てこない。それすらもできなくなるのがうつ病という病なのに。

@walterwhitepill The most difficult thing to do in the world is to immitate Christ.

The high T man as a type realizes after enough life reps that the very fact that Christianity and belief in God may not come easily/naturally is the reason to do them. Once you understand the hard thing you're hiding from is what's best for you in one place, you see it everywhere

@trad_west_ Thanks dood

@alecsbutt Watched the whole thing dont regret it.

Today is Valentine's day. For Catholics it is the feast of Saint Valentine. Emperor Claudius II banned marriage for young men because he believed single men made better soldiers (no attachments). Valentine defied the Empire because he followed the laws of God, not of men. He married couples in secret by candlelight in the catacombs. He knew that the State does not own the Family. He was beaten with clubs and beheaded on February 14, 269 AD. He died protecting the sacrament of Matrimony. This sacrament is under attack today from all sides, now more than ever. Sister Lucia said: "The final battle between Christ and Satan will be over marriage and the family." So instead of celebrating a secular Valentine's day, celebrate the life of this great saint who was martyred for his love of God.

@OrthoMemeSquad Makes sense they wanna keep greece poor and russia an enemy when they admit in the files Orthodox Christianity is the strongest bulwark to their satanic subversive shit

Epstein emails prove that the entire Greek debt crisis was fabricated to save German and French banks. "90% of the payments to Greece actually go to the German and French banks who made risky investments and want to be paid off. So in effect the Greeks are paying the northern banks for debts that the people never incurred."
