Labour has been claiming that over 40% and up to 70% of Afghanis and Sri Lankans are having their refugee status denied. However, all of those went to appeal (through a body set up by the Rudd government) and the Australian reported yesterday that a minimum of 90% of these cases are being overturned on appeal, with some of the lawyers reporting 100% of them being overturned. Good thing we didn't SEND THEM BACK TO THE WARZONE THEN.
Yesterday the Australian also repoted that large sections of the East Timor government really don't want to be Australian's dumping ground. Julia's it's-like-Tony's-idea-but-not-really-I-promise Pacific Solution is not just evil but incompetent.
Once again, we have to choose between evil through stupidity or evil with intent. Elections: welcome to the suck.
