This government really has no shame.by Kay part 2

I immediately thought of the au pairs too when I read joonos post.

Potato has given himself more powers too, re deporting, cancelling visas 😡

The footage was hard to watch, heartbreaking.

I wanted to slam the smug bitch holding the mother into next week, telling her to 'not worry and relax'

Yep, I could only watch it once.

Alan Jones has certainly changed his tune. It just looks like he's trying to reverse the bad publicity he's had lately with the Jacinda Adern remarks and rake his advertiser back in.

I thought the same thing Joono. Pretty transparent move. jmo.

what a shonk this man is... the boat arrival apparently was in May.. a number of news services left that part of the story out and they all used the same footage of a refugee boat that they've been using since 2015

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has conceded he ordered the release of new data on Sri Lankan boat arrivals to “keep the threat of illegal arrivals” alive.

The admission comes after the PM vowed he will not intervene to allow a Tamil family facing deportation to stay in Australia.

They'll be deported. Morrison, Dutton and co don't give a shit and are a pack of fear-mongering, cold hearted arseholes. Advocates have done all that they can for the family and now their fate rests on today's Court outcome. Those two little girls have been kept locked up in detention for a long time. The eldest girl found it hard to understand why she couldn't go outside to play or why she couldn't go home. The little girls have suffered from ill health but the government doesn't care. They want them gone. End of story.

Oh, and its been over three weeks since a group of men on Manus have been heard from. The, now, 54, have been taken into custody with no charges being laid and no communication with the outside world. They have been "disappeared". If only the asylum seekers and refugees were white au pairs........

I saw Morrison got called out on his comment that family once back home could still apply to enter Australia as refugees /apply for approriate Visas.

Except people in their circumstances before being able to return to Aust. have to pay up front the cost of their detention while here previously..which could be hundreds of thousands and even more than a million dollars.
A law that mob brought in?

my scottish friends have been talking to me about the whole brexit thing, trying to explain all sides of the picture to me. i know it's got to be tough for them to try to explain why the people they disagree with want different things to happen, i give them HUGE kudos for trying.

Fingers, toes, everything crossed. It must be agony for them.

I'll see if this works Duffy. I can read it but it says I'm nearly out of free articles.

That's what I thought Deb. How would it even have been possible? He might have been able to go back but I don't see how it's possible that he could return to Australia.

what i heard was that he had been travelling a few times from Sri Lanka to the ME and elsewhere and back again before he left to come here, so "he was not in danger"in Sri Lanka.....as i said, i don't remember where i heard that
