Arkhangel Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Yes, but again, so long as they haven't legally claimed asylum with Australia (which they can't do whilst outside of Australia's migration zone) refugee law does not protect them, regardless of whether they turned the boat around or put them on a different boat or where they sent them back to.

Horza Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Getting some Herbert Moon vibes from this Kalgoorlie mosque issue. Is that a common mindset? I've never had much experience with it, maybe I'm sheltered. Among some.

sh_wulff Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Have fun!

Gears of the Beast Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 France/Germany at 2am then Brazil/Colombia at 6am. Plus the men's semifinals in Wimbledon. That's gonna be a brutal night. Curse our timezone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who needs sleep!!? Also- really unhappy with how our delightful government is behaving- I'm ashamed of being Australian. Thank goodness the supreme Court put an injunction on the transfers of refugees at sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Gotta laugh (cry?) at the new Senate. The carbon tax is fast becoming zombie legislation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karaddin Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I was going with laugh yesterday. Abbott was acting so arrogantly assuming he had the deal and they would roll over, having the triumphant press conference already scheduled for before his big photo op..then it blows up in his face. Add the comments on WWII Japanese soldiers pissing off China, and Bishop choosing this week to have a go at China over human rights as retaliation to this and they are really covering themselves in glory!

brook Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Thing is this is the legislation that they actually have the numbers for and they still can't get them to pass it easily. Once the less popular budget stuff hits the senate things should get even crazier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Yeah I'm hoping that co-payments and the tertiary education reforms go precisely nowhere. Please and thank you Clive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karaddin Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Yeah I'm hoping that co-payments and the tertiary education reforms go precisely nowhere. Please and thank you Clive. Those are two of the things I think he is least likely to pass. I really hope he blocks the 6 months without benefits for youth as well because that one is utterly fucked and screws young kids for their entire life when their career prospects fall apart.

Paxter Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Oh and I forgot to post my political quote of the year: “If you want to come into the kennel with the PUPs be prepared to be chewed up and spat back out,” she told Channel 10.

Warg Arry Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I have been avoiding the media lately. At least the things I can avoid. It got all too depressing.But now I 'm moved to ask (with some trepidation) what happened today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
