Labor is now detaining thirteen non-citizens including three at the Brisbane Immigration Transit Accommodation. The plan is to deport them to Nauru.
All thirteen were freed by the 2023 high court decision that ruled it was illegal to detain people indefinitely. With the support of the Coalition, Labor got around this ruling by introducing Trump-style deportation laws:
◆ It made it legal to deport people to a third country.
◆ It paid Nauru $408 million upfront and then $2.5 billion over 30 years to accept them.
◆ It removed any right of appeal.
Labor’s immediate target is the 354 non-citizens released by the High Court. These people lost their visas after committing a crime and failing the Migration Act “character test”, but most are refugees and could not be deported to their home country.
Labor says these 354 are "too dangerous" to be living in the community even though they have been living in the community since they were released and will be living in the community in Nauru. The laws are racist. Every year 60,000 Australian citizens are released from jail and live in the community without any fear-mongering that they are a danger to the community.
But worse, these laws can apply to many more thousands of people, including the asylum seekers who failed Scott Morrison's corrupt 'fast track' processing system.
The vast majority of people recoil in horror at demands from the Nazi National Socialist Network for mass deportations. But Labor is legitimizing the fear-mongering about foreigners and laying the ground that will allow deportations similar to Trump's ICE raid round-up of migrants. Already Australia is holding about 100 asylum seekers on Nauru, victims of Labor's "strong borders" policies.
