If you’ve taken a taxi or Uber in Australia in the last few years you may have noticed another glaringly obvious aspect of the country’s managed decline.
60 Minutes and Fairfax have recently shone light on this industry with an undercover investigation on fraud and other goings on that have become industry standard as a result of open borders.
It’s amazing 60 Minutes did some actual journalism on something that impacts everyday Australians and has been a huge problem for a number of years. It’s also incredibly surprising there was no censorship of obvious demographic trends in behaviour.
I’m usually very suspicious of anything Nick McKenzie does, as he’s generally the chosen media attack dog of the globalist regime when they want to tear down an Australian institution. McKenzie has a list of recent targets that includes Victoria Police, the ADF, Home Affairs, the CFMEU and now the taxi industry. So usually there is a bigger game being played when he’s involved which I suspect is also transpiring here.
That suspicion aside, the exposé has shown what many of us have been observing for years – foreigners, mainly Indians, have destroyed the rideshare industry and made it completely unsafe for Australians.
The worst example was this Sikh driver.
We’re now importing elderly Sikhs to assault and rob our disabled population and then charge it to the NDIS – complete meme country. Why do we have 57-year-old Sikhs working here at all is my next question.
He also avoided jail despite 499 charges, in another glaring example of anarcho-tyranny and our corrupt judicial system that is actively protecting migrant crime.
And then we have another one trying to scam a passenger and turning violent when confronted:

Chalk up another L for the “Based Sikh” containment right, and I’ve written extensively about their poor behaviour that we’re importing before. But he probably will run for One Nation, so it’s okay apparently.
These drivers are all unskilled. They’re usually on student visas and working full-time or on a GK-482 “skilled” visa being sponsored for something else entirely and are not working in their nominated industry.
But the Business Council of Australia will put out some tear-jerker bullshit about them being “engineers and doctors” and not being able to work in their field because muh red tape, despite their qualifications being likely fake.
Anecdotally, the last time I was in Melbourne I was accosted at least three times by Indians trying to solicit rideshare while leaving the terminal despite it being illegal. Trying to do something about it feels fruitless when half the airport staff are also Indian and allowing it or at least turning a blind eye.
We all know it’s not just taxis – Uber is just as bad, if not arguably far worse.
At the very worst end, it’s sexual assault of female passengers, with multiple recent cases involving Indian drivers. This problem is often compounded by drivers using other people’s accounts, making bans difficult to enforce.
It’s also common for the drivers to be registered with multiple rideshare services and switch between them. This is just taking the piss out of the 48 per hours work restriction under Condition 8105 of the TU-500 student visa and making ABF’s enforcement job even more difficult.
Rideshare drivers who operate under individual ABN’s (the easiest way around Condition 8105) are also supposed to be registered for GST under Australian law.
However, a large percentage aren’t and a simple check of ABN Lookup will confirm this. The lost tax revenue from this would easily be in the hundreds of millions, if not billions, but our illustrious ATO is more interested in how much you declared as a deduction for cleaning your uniform every July.
We also have their dangerous driving to contend with on the roads, with this recent example of a Sikh taxi driver running over a kid and pleading innocent in South Australia just one of many daily examples.
Then you also have Uber Eats delivery riders riding around on international licences, racking up insane amounts of demerit points and then getting into accidents and pleading for the government to save them.
To be honest, it’s not just the rideshare industry. It’s the entire transport industry, and every other industry they’re involved in. The trucking industry, particularly delivery drivers and couriers, is an even more rotten apple which is an entire other discussion.
My advice is to not use these services at all. You’re better off paying a friend or family member to do this as it’s now not worth the risk. You also keep money out of their hands that will be remitted untaxed offshore and kept in the Australian economy.
Do not let your daughters or wives use these services at all either, or at least while accompanied by a male. I know sometimes this may not be practical; you can also buy cheap recording devices (dependent on state legislation) if you feel you’re about to be ripped off.
And if you’re using Uber Eats and supporting the mass importation of foreigners to deliver your food to you because you’re too lazy to drive 5 minutes to go and get it (and then complain about price, incorrect order and being delivered late and cold), then you are a huge part of the problem. Personally, I would put you in jail for socialising the cost of your gluttony and sloth onto everyone else trying to survive foreign drivers on the roads, but that’s just me.
This is just another societal problem that can be solved overnight by closing the border and commencing remigration.
One-way, outbound flights are the only rideshare industry that I can get behind.
