Goodbye Bronwyn

[goomboogo]

Bronwyn was full of glee when told she was being offered an ambassadorship to begin after the next election. Her glee subsided when told she was to be the new ambassador to Borderforce with the embassy to be situated in Mount Druitt.

I'm not too concerned about random Visa checks around busy stations. Hell, next they'll 'randomly' check for train fares too. An experienced eye probably has a more successful strike rate with who they 'randomly' inspect but where's the problem in being efficient at one's job. Should we strive not to be efficient at our jobs?
Really, if you've done nothing wrong what have you got to worry about? This isn't an Orwell or Bradbury novel. This is about upholding laws which allow us the freedom and security we've come to take for granted.
Considering the current trend of employing cheaper workers on 457 Visa's when there's able bodies here, I'm all for a bit of privacy invading, racially discriminating, morally degrading, Visa overstaying, xenophobic spot checking.

Wouldn't the most efficient way to undertake such visa checks involve visiting workplaces in industry sectors most associated with employing workers under these visa schemes.

Maybe some workplaces. But most sites I've been on have multiple entries/exits, good communication methods, an unspoken loyalty and a distaste for law enforcement!


And I don't think the protests have anything to do with a waste of Government resources in this instance, more an over inflated sense of civil rights.

Would be a much simpler idea to ask employers to sight work visas, although even so without having to do that the ATO declaration form should pick the prospective employee up.
Then you have the brothel workers who come in on a student visa and lay on their back for a year and then go back to whichever Asian country they have come from, no tax paid and a load of AUD gone out of the country.

And they do target employers.

But you are always going to get dodgy employers who will do their very best to hide the workers. That will never change

Neither will the *** worker issue

It take Joe Public to be engaged to help find these illegals

I reckon if Joe Public's engaged, there's no way he's gonna report an illegal *** worker.

It would take a lot of resolve for an immigration official to enter a brothel, ask to see ID's and work visas, 'Sorry sarge all legit and above board' h34r:

Chinese run factories which were around me in Moorabbin were often raided, and it was always a dob in, usually from a sales rep who had called in, not got an order and had phoned health and safety and immigration through spite.

Not sure why you'd want to be an apologist for it or try and make it anything to do with socialism or unionism.

They did that themselves.

No it wouldnt.

They have done it before. You just hear about it that often. Its not exactly front page headline stuff ( unless someone high profile gets caught up )

This is just week 2 of Abbott trying to look tough on National security.
As reported in the Fin Review by Laura Tingle 2 weeks ago:

"A meeting of the National Security Committee of the cabinet has, however, recently asked for a list of national-security-related things that could be announced weekly between now and the election.
How much scrutiny has gone in to these "announceables" is unclear."

So in week 1 we get Let's bomb Syria

and week 2 we get ABF getting tough on visa holders, again I'll leave the finer detail to pope

Let's see what we get next week...

Tingle's article could have been titled, "The moment when stupidity becomes pathetic."

Abbott is playing ( creating ) on fear of the masses, The oldest trick in the book

Tell the population they are under attack from "insert threat here" then be perceived to be doing something tough about it

That is truly pathetic

The left are playing ( creating ) on fear of the masses, The oldest trick in the book

Tell the population they are under attack from the LNP then be perceived to be doing something tough about it

That is truly pathetic

You're right.

Yep

Abbott is creating a sphere of fear because he knows his *** is well and truly on the line.

Got nothing to do with the left, unless Abbott is a closet left winger
