Politicians who genuinely seek to build trust between communities and in the political system will get nowhere by casting immigration as a threat
Diamond, P. & Jaffer, N.
(2012).
Politicians who genuinely seek to build trust between communities and in the political system will get nowhere by casting immigration as a threat.

Pandering to populist polemic will only raise expectations of a solution that Government cannot provide and does nothing to address underlying socio-economic problems.
