    What I find amusing about this article is a degree of double standard:

    If a White, working class man - complains about cheap migrant labour taking jobs and pricing him out of business - He's apparently a Racist Xenophobe.

    And yet - Same situation for a "Working Lady" - and we need to get the Department of Immagration onto it - Stat!

    Apart from that - I completely agree with her - Rules are there for a reason, they need to be enforced. I think she's a little naive to suggest that any action taken will make the problem go away (It's not called the oldest profession in the world without reason).

    And TBH - if she she's in her profession by choice and enjoys her work - more power to her.

    Where was the bit about racist xenophobia?

    Sorry if I read the actual thing instead of some imaginary bullshit... which actually states:

    "INZ said no investigation had been undertaken as a result of these allegations as there was "insufficient evidence to warrant further immigration action"."

    You missed, by a country mile, the entire point of the comment.

    I'm just exposing your baseless sexism for what it is, again.

    Worker complained about foreigners taking their job illegally. End of story.

    Yes - I said nothing wrong about her... In fact, I even went out of my way to show my support for her statements.

    There have been another group of people - who've been complaining for the last decade about foreigners taking their jobs illegally - they don't get positive coverage in a major news publication.

    In fact, they get lambasted as Xenophobes and Racists.

    The hypocrisy is that this lady is taken seriously, yet working class men get compared to Hitler - for making the exact same foundational objection.

    If you think this is "baseless sexism" - maybe you should have another look at the Trump campaign - pretty sure one of his policies was to go after foreigners taking jobs illegally - yet, what was Trump and his followers labelled?

    Ah yes....

    "You could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic—you name it. And unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up.”
    Baseless indeed...

    Well, Tell you what - when I see Placard waiving, professional protestors picketing her business, calling her Racist - I'll happily concede it's only my double standard.

    Like they do for everyone who speaks against immigrants taking white male jobs illegally? That's your double standard, don't take the worst from one group and equate it with the best from another.

    You've got someone who was runner up to arguably the most powerful job in the world saying it.

    I think that would definitively show that it's a fairly 'mainstream' opinion.

    Hell yeah....I look at a couple of US based bike sites. They've been taken over by Trumpists and right wing bible bashers who don't accept any criticism of their gods. And criticism from overseas ? You'd be banned.
    Enjoy the freedom here. Better than the US.

    So what does the most powerfully jobbed person have to say on the matter?

    Luckily for the poorly represented, 'popular opinion' often isn't all that popular...
