Apples and Oranges. How many Jewish schools are there in Finland? :huh? Besides, Finland is a small country with a population of around 5 million-ish. A bit like New Zealand where they are way ahead of Australia in some areas. Neither Finland nor NZ has masses of immigrants swarming into their countries. Neither country offers the welfare that Australia does, at taxpayer expense.

Comparing Australia with the UK and/or USA is wrong too. Australia is probably more like Canada with their large land mass and relatively small (35 million?) population.

All up, why should we compare Australia to any other country anyhow? Australia is unique ... lots of land, small population, shitty Federal Government ......... and etcetera. :meet

Speaking of immigrants...
Australia’s education system is particularly effective for immigrant students. Students from schools with a
high concentration of immigrant students (50% of whom are immigrants themselves), tend to achieve
slightly higher reading scores. Chart A5.1 illustrates a positive correlation between the reading scores of
Australian students and the concentration of immigrants within the school they attend. The country ranks
third among 31 OECD member and partner countries in this regard.

The Fins aren't overly keen on their Jews?

Will put up with them in small doses, though are not prepared to allow them to rule the roost.

Anti-semitic, or just crying victim-mouth again in order to be granted special privileges and government funding like they do everywhere else?

It's an all too familiar theme.... the Jews cry victim mouth, then get extra funding, concessions cut.

Perhaps the Fins point-blank refuse to compromise when it comes to educating their own kids.

I have always maintained... charity begins at home.

There could be 2 families of Jews in Finland. Joking! :?

Jews like the sand and heat so why would they stay in the land of lakes? Arabs like the sand and heat too ... Jews =Arabs.

Honestly, Mellie, I care less. I have several Finish friends ..... no current Jewish ones.
