Having had a recent politically based discussion with a right wing political supporter, this was the response for why the country I reside in, should not be taking in asylum seekers.
Australian numbers for how many people fleeing war, terror, asylum seekers etc they support – is pathetically low. Australia, is also clearly a pretty racist country.
Where I live, our current Government LNP, believe in ‘turn back the boats’. Asylum seekers are treated badly, children are forced to be parted from their parents, they believe in ‘a class divide system’, want to bring back ‘crowning’ the elite and rich with knighthoods & dames, want to erode the public health system, erode the public education system, the PM supports enabling paedophile priests…
Oh, and the PM – Tony Abbott – is a ‘Christian’ – or so he claims. He’s also an obvious narcissist.

Dis Jesus preach about having a ‘class system’.
Ummmm….no He did not.

I think the middle classes have real issues with this. They don’t want their privileged positions, above the poor lowly working classes, upset in any way.
To bring in more ‘poor’ people, might make the country less wealthy – which might affect them too – and they do not want that.
They could pay more tax to help fund helping more poor people – but NO WAY will they do that.
They ‘need’ their $400,000, $500,000 + incomes. “We pay enough tax already” – they will shout. They ‘need’ to maintain their positions in society, in their snobby, elitist minds and worlds. Their $mil posh houses, in the ‘good’ areas, their cars, their children all attending posh private schools, their lavish entertaining, their status, their ego’s, their own selfish needs. Oh so Christian, I think not. Continue reading →
