The article is saying that NZ politicians are complaining that the country is simply a stepping-stone for outsiders/outlanders to gain Australian citizenship. What is this Morrowind xenophobic shit?
Which is a rather bizarre claim to make. I travelled to NZ and Australia about 20 years ago. When I went through NZ customs they wanted to see proof of where I was staying and more importantly that I had airline reservations to leave NZ. So they wanted proof I was just visiting and planned to leave in a timely manner.
When I went to Australia the customs officer just stamped my passport and let me through, no questions asked.
Why deal with the hassle of NZ as a stepping stone if I could just go straight to Australia and avoid that hassle?

Things might have changed in the intervening 20 years.
