Kevin Rudd says the nation must double its population to ensure it can independently defend itself against Chinese threats.

The former prime minister said a “big and bold” immigration program was needed to ensure Australia could “stand on our own two feet”. “Australia must plan for a big Australia — a big and sustainable Australia — of a type I advocated while I was still in office,” Mr Rudd said while launching an essay on Australia’s “China challenge” by journalist Peter Hartcher on Tuesday.

“Only a country, in my judgment, of a population of 50 million later this century will begin to have the capacity to fund independently the defence and intelligence assets necessary to defend our territorial integrity and maintain our political sovereignty for the long term.”

Rudd lives in a bubble like all politicians and doesn't give a rats what the rest of us underdogs think.

I'm totally against Rudd's idea.

However, he didn't say that the extra 25 million people will all be immigrants, and he certainly didn't say anything about them coming from the third world.

Yes, that's true.

I have no problem saying that I'd like to see immigration cut right back.

Not because of where they're coming from, but because I believe we have enough people.

Both Labor and Liberal governments will always push for an increase in population though.

Population is increasing at an alarming rate and Rudd may get his wish.

Because we have to accept everyone and anyone by the time we get to 50 million there will be 10 million third world unassimilable bludgers bleeding us dry.
