Right. And in my view the fact that policy hasn’t long ago been made Federal law here and in other western countries is convincing evidence those running our countries are freaking idiots, traitors, and criminals!

English will be a nice change of pace from whatever it is that the Kiwis speak.

“ On Sunday, New Zealand’s government reported that 173,000 non-citizens migrated to the country last year, almost a record.”
Did they swim from Paupa New Guinea?

Did they swim from Paupa New Guinea? I think it’s possible that many did indeed, come from there.

If only our government had the guts to do this.

That’ll earn the wrath of globalists.
On all accounts, I like it.

I’ve heard that it’s very difficult to obtain NZ citizenship.

Does “sign language” count?
That’s how I speak Spanish in the USA.

Good on NZ.
With such a small population, the island could easily be taken over. Far too many “immigrants” were let in already.

Step in the right direction, but New Zealand needs so much more help.

highly unlikely that anyone could swim from PNG to New Zealand.
The distance from the southernmost point of PNG to the North Island of New Zealand is 2560 miles / 4119.92 km
