Matthew Gruter, a South African citizen who has been in Australia since 2022 is getting the boot. Seems the last straw as far as the government is concerned was when Gruter took part in an anti-Jewish protest outside the New South Wales parliament organised by the National Socialist Network. Although Gruter has committed no crime (that we know of) whilst in Australia, he is now awaiting deportation in the Villawood Detention Centre for his activism within the White Supremacist Movement.

I would think the vast majority of fair minded Australians don't agree with Mr Gruter's "blood and honour" notions, but he does have a right to his beliefs, providing he's not calling for the violent destruction of others. Australia's Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said Mr Gruter's visa had been cancelled on "character grounds", adding that those who attended the rally were not "patriotic". "Multicultural Australia and modern Australia are the same thing... They hate modern Australia," he said. Sarah Schwartz, executive officer of the Jewish Council of Australia, seemed rather pleased that Mr Gruter is going. But $20,000 has been donated from people in support of these Neo-Nazi's, so someone agrees with them.

What's the Forums opinion on Mr Gruter's swift kick out of Australia?

Dear Paul,

«What's the Forums opinion on Mr Gruter's swift kick out of Australia?»

1. This Gruter guy does not seem to be a nice fellow.
2. Nobody owes anyone a visa, so it was fine to cancel his visa.
3. Detaining people is a form of violence: it is cruel and not OK to detain people unless it is absolutely necessary as a last resort in self-defence against physical threat, which does not seem to be the case here.
4. While he should not be detained or deported, Gruter should be informed that he is no longer welcome in Australia and his visa has been cancelled, thus unless he leaves on the next available flight, he will no longer enjoy any protection here.

Nobody who is not an Australian citizen has any right to involve himself/herself in Australian politics. If the immigration department was up to the job, this Boer wouldn't have got a visa in the first place.

Good riddance.

However, the smirking Immigration Minister is the biggest hypocrite in the Albanese regime. He takes the credit for this one, but allows violent Islamists to stay and, in fact, actually invites them to come here.

This affair is just another example of the Minister's and his department's incompetence. Both are unfit for their jobs and should be dealt with: by the voters in the Minister's and his awful government's case, by a decent government (yet to reveal itself) in the case of the equally awful public servants in the immigration department.

Hi Paul,
I don't think non-citizens should take part in protests.

I haven't seen footage of the actual protest, so can't comment on what happened there, but I did see a photo and read an article.

They want to 'Abolish the Jewish lobby' and oppose new laws on anti-Semitism, and I agree with both of those things.

The part that makes it complicated for me is that Police allowed the protest to go ahead, so if all he did was protest without actually breaking any laws otherwise, then I disagree with the deportation, simply because they allowed the protest to go ahead, then wish to punish him for it after the fact
(Jewish lobby I bet and justifies his protest)

>>NSW Police said the demonstration had been given the green light, but NSW Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon and Premier Chris Minns said they were not given a heads-up about the rally on parliament’s doorstep.

Mr Minns condemned the group, labelling their actions a “shocking display of hatred”.<<

Seems the government were not informed about it.
(Not the protesters fault the government is incompetent)
They were caught off guard, embarrassed by it, and had to do something to appease their pissed off genocide supporting Jewish friends.

Beyond that I don't think it's racist to oppose a foreign lobby.
The question is are they registered as foreign agents.

Now, I also think about the actual Australians in that protest.
Did they have a right to protest, oppose the Jewish lobby, and oppose laws meant to prosecute Australians whenever Jewish Australians are offended?
Yes they do.

Jews have been going crazy about anti-semitism during this ICC certified genocide, and whilst I don't support physically attacking Jews in Australia that had nothing to do with it, they do by and large support Israels genocide, and deserve on some level to be sneered at.

No less than I should be attacked and sneered at if I came out and said 'we need to do away with all the indigenous people in the country. Whether we shoot them, starve them, deprive them of life necessities, I don't care how we get rid of them, just as long as they're gone'.

That attitude deserves to be rebuked, and so does all the endless atrocities surrounding Zionist aims for a Jewish apartheid state and land theft.

The Jewish lobby has too much power and influence, when they are having people deported. If this man has not committed any actual crime, then I think 'fearful' Jews should just shut their mouths or go back to Israel because they seem to care more about that country than ours anyway.

Their aims for a Jewish apartheid state demonstrates their own racism and intolerance and means they should not have a Jewish lobby or a platform at all.

And Australians should not be paying over and above to protect these Jewish Australians if they themselves support the genocide and atrocities.

“No one who lives in Sydney should have to put up with that kind of hate speech on the steps of the People’s House,” he said.
- I believe the people's house was the PRECISELY APPROPRIATE VENUE for that protest.

This isn't the apartheid state of Israel.
Jews can take their apartheid leaning views and their anti-semitic critical fears, and go back to Israel if they can't accept this is not the Jewish state and that many different people including Muslims and Palestinians, and even a few Neo Nazis live here, all of whom are entitled to their opinions.

The neo-nazi is no worse and no more intolerant than those supporting a racist Jewish apartheid state and genocide and the killing of women, kids and babies for land theft.

This story is no more about Neo Nazis having a say, that it is of whingeing Jews trying to prevent some Australians from doing so.
