The World Will Move to New Zealand, Home of the Free By Peter Ewer

     Fantastic news; after the spontaneous display of emotion in New Zealand, after The Terrible Event, the entire world wants to move to New Zealand, and why not?

“Worldwide interest in moving to New Zealand has spiked in the aftermath of Christchurch’s deadly terror attacks. Immigration New Zealand (INZ) figures show a significant lift in the volume of registrations from people interested in living and working in New Zealand since the March 15 shootings, when 50 Muslim worshippers were killed at the Masjid Al Noor and Linwood Masjid by a lone gunman.  INZ assistant general manager Peter Elms said his agency had received 6457 registrations of interest from March 15 to 24, compared to 4844 for the preceding 10 days – a 33 per cent increase. The largest numerical increase had come from the United States – 1165 compared to 674, a 72 per cent increase. Britain and South Africa had the second and third highest number of registrations, compared to the 10 days before the attacks. Britain jumped from 505 to 753 – a 49 per cent increase.

Predominantly Muslim countries, notably Pakistan (333 registrations since the attacks), had shown a surge in interest despite their faith being the terror target. New Zealand Muslims have received an outpouring of goodwill in the form of vigils, flowers, messages and donations. Other Muslim majority countries showing increased interest include Malaysia (165 registrations), Bangladesh (82), Morocco (66), Indonesia (63), Egypt (59) and Turkey (59). These were purely registrations of interest in coming to New Zealand and not visa applications, Elms said. Some of the interest in living in New Zealand appears to be a reaction to Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s empathetic approach to the victims of the shootings."

     All of that is wonderful, and New Zealand should adopt an open borders immigration policy, to get further into the spirit of things, but only after Australia, ends the Trans-Tasman Travel Agreement. Once migrants discover that welfare is not so good in the land of the kiwis, maybe the world not already here will come to Australia, not that there is anything wrong with our welfare system collapsing, of course.
