Reduction of Migrants to Australia

Read an interesting news article today about a call by Labor MP Kelvin Thomson that Australia should reduce its intake of migrants so that each migration applicant would be able to go through a much thorough security checks.  According to the article, Mr. Thomson claims that would reduce the chances of letting terrorists successfully coming to Australia.

It sounds logical.  Is it going to hold up if we ever going to do what Mr. Thomson says?  I do not know.  However, if my memory serves me right, recently, the terrorists who had been the culprit of London Bomb Attack in 2005, out of four, three of them were born and raised in the United Kingdom.  Were the security checks done upon their parents/grandparents/ancestors able to find out they were going to bomb London if the checks were 1000 times more thorough?  I doubt it.

Link to the reduction of migrant to Australia?  Well I just think Australia has always been a migrant country and should remain to be fair and open to all potential migrants.  Whatever the law is going to turn into, as long it is fair and square, then I will be fine with it.
