So we can all agree, It's a systemic failure by all sides of Politics, backed by an incompetent Public Service. Laws that are written in such vague terms that they are open to interpretation by any of the various species of Law Scavengers that are feeding of the Public Purse.

I offered one solution. It wouldn't be perfect but it was attempt to put another Brick-in-the-Wall.

Good afternoon to you PERICLES...
and to you too SUSEONLINE...

You are absolutely 'spot on' with your remarks, both of you ! Whether it's the interdiction of crime, realistic protection of our borders, or the fraudulent practices occurring in immigration. While you possess a sluggish, sloth like, and more importantly, 'protected' bureaucracy, nothing will ever improve.

Proof of these allegations contained herein, is relatively easy to obtain. Apropos crime; ask any working detective ? Protection of our borders; ask any 3rd or 4th division Customs Officer (these titles may've changed, post my retirement from the police) ? These investigative bodies can accurately and succinctly describe in detail, what is wrong, and what measures are obligatory to fix it !

However, Australian's per se, have this peculiar attitude of, '...she'll be right, don't worry about it...' ? And it's because of this national inertia or lethargy, we'll NEVER EVER change. Furthermore, within the next century, Australia as we know it, will cease to exist. We'll either be Islamicized, or 'owned' by perhaps China !

Why ? As I've already stated herein, it's because of 'our' collective apathy, malaise or enervation ! Please think about it ? All of our politicians are impotent. Too frightened (by political correctness) to effect STRONG change. Gee, we're a weak lot, us Aussies ! Already our enemies walk amongst us, they're part of us, they're already here !

Interestingly, many claims for asylum are by those already studying here who originally came by air and are classified as non-IMA's (non- Irregular Maritime Arrivals)...that is, they didn't arrive by boat.

Hey poirot, I thought you gone to Palestine to join the fighting with Hamas as per Sura (4.95)

You are missing out an a great Forum, "Cutting the grass in the Theatre of War." right up you ally.

Yes, that's another lot I would stop from settling. These students come here from 3rd. World Countries to Study. When they have Graduated they should be sent straight back to where they came from to better the plight of people in their own countries.

OK O Sung but try standing up for your nation and see how you go with the entire parliament, the bureaucracy, the unions,the churches, all of the media plus the Police and ASIO working against you.

In a few hundred years hopefully we'll be living in a world that's actually 'civilised'. A world where countries won't exist and where people are free to travel and live anywhere, subject to the obvious health regulations.

Currently we are an uncivilised species, fearful of people not just like us, territorial in our very primitive/animalistic way. 'Us' are our priority, and to hell with 'them', we are a very uncivilised species indeed. It's a perfect environment for the haters and the fearful.

It will take hundreds of years, maybe thousands, but hopefully we will eventually become more intellectually advanced than we are currently, and people will have the freedom to live where they choose.
