Misopinionated,

As you could easily see from other comments on this thread, I got that sightly wrong.

"Anybody born in Australia is automatically an Australian citizen ..

I'd like to think that they have unquestioned residency until old enough to choose their nationality !

Hi Mr O,

One of our favourite mokos's (extended family grandchild) Mum a Kiwi, Dad a Kiwi, Bubs born in Aussie, Bubs a New Zealand citizen. Two of our favourite mokos's (actual grandchildren) Mum born in NZ (but became an Aussie before kids were born, Dad a Cook Islander on NZ passport, Kids Australian citizens, although they can claim NZ citizenship if they wish.

BTW Mr O, been missing your intelligent input on topics lately. Its all becoming a bit of an echo chamber for the crazed rightwingers. Talk about Aboriginals and you feel you are debating the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan from Alabama.

shows why we need a Trump who won't appoint loony leftist judges who display little to no common sense and push racist leftist agendas.

runner, of course you do approve of the appointment of Judge Roland Freisler as the new Chief Justice of the High Court? That should satisfy you.

runner,

Unfortunately we don't have any Trump-like politicians in the LNP; they appointment as many lefty activists to the High Court as Labor does. Scott Morrison spends too much time defending himself from the Opposition instead of getting on with it and being different altogether from Labor which is what the voters want him to be. The way he is allowing some of his own members and his coalition partners to carry on at the moment will see him out next election.
