The White Australia policy was the Policy of the Government of the time - it was not imposed through a vote.

Like so much Government policy it was not supported by many of the voting public at that time. Australia already had a large Chinese population (post the Gold Rush of the 1850's) by the time this poicy was in effect and they would not be expected to have supported this policy

The government policy during the 1920's was the white Australia policy. The policy of excluding all non-European people from the Australian continent, was the official policy of all governments and all mainstream political parties in Australia from the 1890s to the 1950s, and elements of the policy survived until the 1970s.

The "White Australia" policy, although introduced at Federation, was actually a legacy dating back to goldrush times. This is when it began, albeit unofficially.

Some Australians wanted a "White Australia" policy and to have immigration laws toughened. There was lingering resentment over the Chinese who had come during the gold rush, made their fortune (as they were far more industrious than Australians) and then returned to their own country, taking their fortune with them.

The "official" White Australia policy was integrated into the Australian constitution at federation in 1901. It was hoped by some (not all) that a White Australia policy would ensure employment for Australians. Some colonies were opposed to this policy as they used foreign labour, which was often much cheaper than local labour. An example of this is Queensland, which employed Kanakas (people from the Cook Islands). Under the new constitution, not only the Kanakas, but also the much-feared Chinese, who came to Australia during the gold rush, would not be allowed into Australia. Thus Federation would eliminate unwanted foreigners, providing more employment for Australians.

Basically, when Australia became a federation in 1901 the establishment of the white Australia policy could actually be done as there was now one SINGLE government controlling immigration. Immigration (or the restriction of immigration) was one of the reasons that people wanted Australia to become a federation.

Prior to Federation, some Australians believed Federation would enable the development and maintenance of a "White Australia", by toughening immigration laws. There was lingering resentment over the Chinese who had come during the gold rush, made their fortune (as they were far more industrious than Australians) and then returned to their own country, taking their fortune with them. Some stayed and set up businesses in towns, but they were always looked down upon. It was hoped by some (not all) that a White Australia policy would ensure employment for Australians. Some colonies were opposed to this policy as they used foreign labour, which was often much cheaper than local labour.

Under the new constitution, not only the Kanakas, but also the much-feared Chinese, who came to Australia during the gold rush, would not be allowed into Australia.

well... people who were 'not white' could not enter australia. even those who were in Australia at the present got treated differently than to the pure 'white' Australians. Non-white people weren't allowed in pubs, schools, down town, to the movies, beaches etc... Their life was cut short. They were treated differently than to the 'white people.' it was a hard life for them. ("aboriginals")

The white Australia policy was a policy introduced in 1901, at Federation. The policy limited the migrants entering Australia from other countries, favouring those from European countries. This meant that Australia did not allow all migrants to enter the country, especially the Asians.

The main reason the act was introduced is that the European Australians were worried they would lose their jobs to the more hard-working labourers such as the Chinese. The act was later abolished.

The white Australia policy originally developed during the 1800s because many Australians came from English stock and as a result felt that they were superior. They didn't even officially recognise the existence of aboriginals. They felt that by allowing other races into the country that their position would be swamped by ensuring cheap labour market and that they would become an unemployed minority in their own country.
