No surprise the Alp has stuffed this up again. Of course Albo won’t sack either of these to non performers from their portfolios

Immigration bungle results in former detainees who breached visa conditions escaping conviction

The federal government has been forced to reveal it bungled issuing visas to 149 people released from immigration detention, meaning some who have breached strict monitoring conditions in the months since will get away with no consequences.

• In short: A technical issue is being blamed for visas issued to 149 people released from immigration detention being invalid
• The federal government said the issue was discovered over the weekend and quickly rectified.
• What's next? Some of the group have been arrested in recent months for breaching visa conditions, and may now escape conviction as a result of the visas being invalid.

it was a technical issue that had been on the Commonwealth law books for some time.

"This is an issue that actually dates back more than a decade to the creation of the visa class back in 2013," Mr Giles said.

"There's been no lapse in constant monitoring of this cohort as a result of this technical issue."

So it's an issue that was never spotted by anyone - not even the infallible PETER DUTTON (Ex cop and Gold Coast property developer) - for a decade or more.

Now rectified.

Monitoring was never interrupted.

Not clear if affects prosecution or other consequences for Visa breaches.

149 incorrect visas ?

Oh Albo!!

They haven't said how many.

Note that the article ends with a verbatim quote from, of all people, the Shadow Finance Minister making airy "he should resign" demands.

Where are the independent sources with real immigration law experience?

Big Jimbo getting in early to let everyone know cost of living relief in the May budget will be bugger all. Unbelievably bad luck for the govt that unemployment is starting to kick up due to record immigration and a total collapse of Australians discretionary spend. Also it turns out that basing your entire economy on record iron ore prices while attacking that industry isn't good policy. Australia going great guns

Unemployment us kicking up because the RBA raised rates until it did

That's what the reserve does when you have out of control inflation. Uncontrolled mass immigration is petrol on the fire. No spending constraint and halting tax bracket creep reform for a cheap short term splash.

 

[Gralin]

That's what happens when you have out of control inflation and uncontrolled mass immigration. Otherwise we'd have hyperinflation now. As it is we have stagflation.

Globally inflation was high and when it came down globally it came down here

Welcome to the global economy

Inflation was not caused by immigration but incase you're unclear on how capitalism works its from unending growth which requires increased population which means if we don't do it without immigration we'll do it with immigration

This is not a coalition vs Labor thing this is a capitalism thing and both majors support it

Australia's economic performance is the worst of all OECD countries all things considered. Sharpest drop in real incomes of all of them. Despite record commodity prices. No other Australian govt has a remotely comparable immigration rate to this one for example

I know you’ll continue to argue, but immigration has a lag. People don’t get approval to immigrate and get on a plane the next week

Todays arrivals might have been approved 12-18 months ago. Who was the govt at that time? The party now making immigration a political point? I guess lightly aware voters will buy that

Maybe they should ask Harvey Norman to return the $$$ they didn't need from the pandemic?

You get out of control inflation when a government has out of control spending. Who did that?

And we still have no idea what Morrison and Co spent it on

They paid the entire workforce to stay home to protect 90 year olds with comorbidities. Of course that ridiculous policy was bipartisan except Labor and the greens wanted to go further.

 

[Balls In]

Anyhoo Australia has devolved over the past 20 years into a class system with a small landed gentry and massive working poor. Middle class is toast. You either own property or you hand over half your earnings in rent or mortgage with what's left after the govt has taxed the hell out of it. You get to "live" on what's left.

Just to lock that in we've based our tax system on penalizing those who earn too much and threaten to break out of their station.

You either own property or you hand over half of the money the govt allows you to keep on rent or mortgage (ie to banks). You get to "live" on what's left.

Let me guess, Clive Palmer and Pauline Hanson are the only people that can fix this?

How did I just know your view on COVID would be that simplistic, selfish and idiotic?

 

[JackOutback]

What the hell does that have to do with what I just posted?

Because the system you are bemoaning has been championed by conservatives for the last 20 years, who have been in power for most of the past 20 years, and you’re in here whinging about Labor and how they need to be turfed out… for the conservatives. Does the phrase self-aware wolf mean anything to you?

 

[Crankyhawk]

Let me guess, Clive Palmer and Pauline Hanson are the only people that can fix this?

To be fair he doesn’t articulate an actual solution just a complaint that tax is too high. Fails to sheet blame to Howard for generous capital gains tax breaks that turbo charged the useless residential property sector (in terms of economic productivity)

100% agree.

However, I have no idea how you come the conclusion that the conservatives are the ones to fix this. Morrison was a rent payer - he simply handed out cash to anyone and everyone who was on "his side".

How long before middle classes realise they are being shafted like the (not) working classes have been

That's the trick you see, middle class is a divide and conquer tactic, the two classes are workers and the parasitic class.

The parasites will turn the so called middle class to fascism before changing the economic system or risking their privileged position, they don't own the media for nothing. Socialism or barbarism
