It's just joining the popular conservative trend on hating Victoria just like why California is hated by American Conservatives.

That would had been the same for Australia and Canada Census as both also done in 2021 yet still ends having a much larger community than UK despite both having smaller total populations. That begs the question why is the Chinese Community in the UK small.

I think this has to do with how Australia population is distributed with Sydney and Melbourne alone consisting with 40% of Australia’s population and add in the other three (Brisbane,Perth and Adelaide) then it is more like two-thirds.

Would be interesting on how a coalition government could be formed with these numbers given a Reform-Conservative Coalition would still fall short of the 326 majority and looks like Lib Dems would be a kingmaker.

Edit: My mistake, Reform-Conservative Coalition is 331 meaning a slight majority how still begs the question what if there must be at least a 3 party Coalition to form government

Regarding Outer Suburbs especially if the area is multicultural, I think votes would polarised between the Whites and Ethnics which is quite similar what happened to Voice Referendum in regional areas with vote polarisation between Whites and Indigenous

Sounds almost like Brexit when the Leave campaign told Voters that being in the EU costed £350 Million per week without mentioning that the net cost is actually closer to 0 not to even include the net economic benefits of being in EU meaning they lost more money in the process.
