"One Nation leader Pauline Hanson and new Liberal leader Angus Taylor have
invoked “Australian values” to justify taking a hard line on immigration,
especially from countries that supposedly don’t share our values.
The phrase summons comforting and nostalgic images of football, meat pies,
kangaroos and Holden cars, but politicians are rarely asked to spell out what
our national values actually are.
When they do, they are often talking about different things.
So, what exactly do Australians “value”? And do these values line up with what
politicians are saying about migration?"
