“How absolutely evil and sickening. “By placing migrants (lawfully in the US) in Social Security’s “death master file,” the Trump administration is seeking to cut off their access to credit cards, bank accounts and other financial services.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

Why would we believe anything Dutton says and promises. Isn’t this the same man that during the Voice swore till he was blue in his face that he would hold a referendum on recognition of First Nations people if elected. How’s that faring? He’s learnt from Trump just get in & then do what you want.

Asylum Seeker Resource Centre says detainees at an immigration detention centre in Melbourne's north rioted because of frustration that a man was not receiving adequate healthcare.

While Australians look on in horror at Trump deporting non citizens to El Salvador hellhole prisons without due process, know they got this off us. Australia since passage of those 3 brutal bills last year, can deport non - citizens anywhere & jail them for up to 5 years if they don’t voluntarily go

The Asylum Seeker Resource Centre is disappointed by today’s High Court decision. The Court held that detaining people seeking asylum while their visa applications are pending is lawful in some instances, even when no real prospect of their removal in foreseeable future asrc.org.au/2025/04/02/h...

Peter Dutton wants to: Cut our refugee and humanitarian intake by 31% down to 13,750 places per annum Give politicians the power to strip citizenship from Australian dual citizens Most likely scrap the envoy for Islamaphobia Defund Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Programs within FederalGovernment

From wanting to give politicians the power to strip citizenship from Australian dual citizens to cutting our refugee and humanitarian intake by 31%. Peter Dutton is running again on fear, demonising refugees and migrants and sowing the seeds of division.
