The Minister for Home Affairs has the legal authority under the Australian Citizenship Act 2007 to revoke his citizenship in certain cases especially if he:

1. Was convicted of a serious offence (e.g. sentenced to 12+ months imprisonment)

2. Misrepresented facts during their citizenship application

3. Engaged in terrorism-related conduct

And with The High Court Precedents:


In Jones v Commonwealth of Australia [2023] HCA 34, the High Court upheld the minister’s power to revoke citizenship of someone convicted of serious offences, even decades after they became a citizen.



How many citizenships have been revoked in Australia?


Since the passing of the Australian Citizenship Act 2007, to 31 December 2021, a total of 59 citizens have had their Australian citizenship revoked – 58 under the Australian Citizenship Act 2007 and one under the Citizenship Act 1948.
Lots of kiwis been deported though. I thought on character grounds. I retesting to see.
 
I reckon we should bring in way more immigrants. And we should provide housing incentives in western Sydney for them. But only the questionable ones.

All the attractive single females could be housed in emergency accomodation within a 20km radius of my house.
 
So the sovereign citizen, Mr Freeman, "I'm a traveller, not a driver", has been on government benefits for 20 years.

Couldn't make this stuff up.

Cops have botched this.

Ok, I'm obviously no expert, but how do 10 cops rock up, he shoots three, takes their guns and fucks off.

What happened to the other 7 while he was taking their weapons?

Also, arresting the wife and son, wtf for? To save face?

And they have appeared to close every police station within 200k of there to send them to Bright

From what I've read they did a risk assessment and knew he was dangerous so sent 10 police.

Apparently he ambushed them so who knows what that means. Maybe he shot them from cover a hundred metres away and legged it.

I'd be interested to know how it all went down.

It does seem like a fuck up on their part.
 
Lovely moment... brings a tear to the eye

Without knowing what procedures they put in place, not sure we can guess... Sad reality is that two blokes, doing their jobs, didnt go home to their families that day.....
 
lol dictator dan.

as they say, the only good communist, is a dead one.

Well they're a long way from 'communism' these days. Besides being a one-party system that's about it.

They have more in common with Singapore than they do with North Korea these days.
 
Communism is long gone, at least as an economic and political ideology. The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 did for that....

And socialism is probably treading the same pathway, at least in the traditional democratic socialist ideology sense.

I kinda got communism - Well I had too because my old man was one.

Communists believe that people should share wealth so that no one is too poor, no one is too rich, and everyone has enough to survive and have a good life. Unworkable of course, but still a fairly good idea in my opinion. Socialists believe in similar ways of doing things but the left of the 21st century are more about ultra-liberalism than old socialist principles that might be hanging around.

And that would possibly be a contested viewpoint for many but I'm definitely thinking that these days ultra-liberalism is the predominant politics of the left and particularly rooted in the political logic of nonprofit industry, bourgeois institutions and academia....

How about this. Any personal income exceeding $1 billion dollars is taxed at 75% or does that make me a communist?

Hell I'd make it $100 million. How much money do you need when you couldn't spend it in 10 lifetimes.

And before someone says taxation is theft ask yourself, would you rather a kid got decent dental care or your grandma got appropriate aged care or some bloke has a bank account with $400 billion in it?
