The unemployment rate for Sudanese migrants in Australia sits at rates between 28.6% to 31.8% compared to the general population's rate of roughly 4-6%. 7 to 8 times higher.

That what you were looking for Fright Bat Moth Balls?

it was more a tongue in cheek comment about the total lack of any resemblance to a decent opposition and a person to lead it.  I get tired of Labor continually recycling the same, worn pollies - rotating them through portfolio after portfolio with very few new faces or ideas surfacing.  Without an effective and well led opposition it will be more of the same.   I see no one in opposing that could competently lead so, why not bring back the attack dog?

“ Angus Taylor, a senior Australian Liberal politician, has faced various allegations of conflict of interest and misconduct, though no charges of criminal corruption have been proven. Key controversies include his involvement with companies that received large government payments (Watergate/EAA), illegal land clearing on a family property (Jam Land), and the use of forged documents.
Key controversies and allegations surrounding Angus Taylor include:
Watergate/Eastern Australia Agriculture (EAA): Taylor co-founded and was a director of EAA, which was paid $79 million by the government in 2017 for water rights in a tender-free, high-value transaction. Critics, including the Shooters Fishers and Farmers Party, questioned the high price for water, the lack of tender, and the transaction's connection to a Cayman Islands-based parent company, raising concerns about a conflict of interest.
Jam Land Illegal Land Clearing: A company co-owned by Taylor (Jam Land) was found to have illegally sprayed herbicide on a critically endangered grassland in 2016. The Federal Court upheld a finding of illegal clearing, and critics accused Taylor of failing to properly disclose his interest in the company.
Forged Documents Scandal: In 2019, Taylor was accused of using forged documents to attack the Sydney Lord Mayor, Clover Moore, over travel expenses. Police found no evidence for the documents, although the AFP did not proceed with an investigation, leading to criticisms from the Australian Greens.
Grants to Connected Firms: The Guardian reported that the NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) asked questions about a $107,000 grant awarded to a company linked to Taylor's family, raising further questions about potential conflicts.
Taylor has consistently denied any wrongdoing, stating he followed all disclosure rules and that the accusations were politically motivated. ”

He sounds like the liberal equivalent to Anika Wells?

And I notice posters here prefer to engage in silly political argument, rather than understand what's really causing  the current political chaos around the world.
