An open letter to MP Andrew Hastie:-
Dear Mr Hastie,
My name is Mick. I am 39 years old and currently live on the Gold Coast in Queensland. I am recently retired after a 13 year career in Law Enforcement.
I am writing because, like many Australians, I have been deeply rattled by the recent terrorist attack in Bondi. Over the last few years, I have also felt growing disgust and alarm watching public protests following October 7, including open antisemitic chants and rhetoric that would have been unthinkable in Australia not long ago.
During my time in policing, I saw firsthand how social cohesion breaks down when criminal behaviour is tolerated or excused under the guise of cultural sensitivity. I dealt with and observed the impacts of organised criminal gangs operating within particular communities, including youth and family based gangs, and I have watched with concern as similar issues have escalated publicly in places like Victoria. These are difficult realities to discuss, but they are realities nonetheless, and avoiding them only allows the problem to grow.
For several years now, I have been increasingly concerned about the scale of mass migration into Australia. I have followed closely what has unfolded across Europe and the United Kingdom, and I do not believe Australia is immune from the same social fractures if we continue to ignore clear warning signs.
In the wake of the Bondi attack, watching the weak and feckless leadership of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has left me angry and frustrated. There appears to be no willingness at the highest level to confront hard truths or to put social cohesion and national security ahead of political comfort.
I, along with many others I speak to, am genuinely fearful about the future of this country. There is a growing sense that if decisive action is not taken immediately, Australia risks reaching a point of no return where our social cohesion, shared values, and national identity are permanently damaged.
My understanding is that you stepped away from the frontbench due to a fundamental disagreement over immigration policy. I watched the interview between Sussan Ley and Andrew Bolt on Sky News on 17 December, and what stood out to me was the refusal to seriously engage with the question of reducing immigration numbers. Managing systems while maintaining the status quo is not leadership. It takes conviction to say that numbers matter, and that limits are necessary.
I genuinely believe that if a leader ran on a clear and unapologetic platform to significantly reduce immigration in the interests of cohesion, security, and national unity, they would be elected Prime Minister. At present, I do not see that conviction anywhere in Australian politics except in your public commentary and interviews.
I ask you respectfully to consider challenging for the leadership and putting yourself forward as the next Prime Minister. From where I sit, you are the only politician speaking with clarity, courage, and consistency on these issues. Australia needs leadership that is prepared to act, not simply manage decline.
Thank you for your service and for continuing to speak honestly when it would be easier not to.

@karlstefanovic Karl, love your podcast and the work you are doing. I know you might not read this but please continue what you’re doing. People in our country are finally waking up to the leftists, the political establishment and the globalists and the destruction they are doing.
@AshPolitik This will only further awaken the masses. They want to silence dissent. People realise their countries are being invaded and pillaged by the third world. It’s time now for us to take our country back. Leftist is a disease and a cancer that must be eradicated.
