Dear Steelie,

Very disappointing and disheartening.

I guess money talks.

Whatever happened to statesmanship, and integrity
in politics?

If our visa system is privatised and sold off -
the standards will decline and transparency and
accountability will be a major concern. It will
open up the market for cheap labour,
and gradual decline of government control.
Privatisation is a business -
interested in profit at any cost and little regard
for the consequences on society.

We've seen this happening with our building industry
recently.

Dear Foxy,

(Just flagging sarcasm is about to follow)

Please why don't you give some thought to our government ministers after they retire. Bishop and Pine would love to sit on boards of privatised departments. I'm sure Dutton will be looking for some cushy jobs post politics and what better than on the board of a company that is now running Australia's visa program.

Also why aren't you thinking about all the poor dolts on this forum who voted the coalition in at the last election, how on earth will they spin this?

At least you and I deem it outrageous.

Economic news this morning warns us this government is leading down a very steep hill
Social media is flooded with Dutton going against immigration
To let his mates two baby minders stay against immigration advice

I agree with Foxy and Steele,

If our "privatised" immigration prisons are any guide, then there is nothing to be served by a billion dollar plumb for Liberal mates in the form of a privatised visa processing system. Hopefully the Senate will do its job and vote down this shameful attempt at money grabbing by the Coalition.

how on earth will they spin this?
Steele redux,
When you have a Coalition figurehead but the whole of the incompetent outfit is Labor supporter saturated then you don't need to spin anything, it's all self-explanatory !
