Is it time to ditch the trans-Tasman partnership?
With Australia becoming more isolationist in general. With their marriage to coal and Trump. With their policy of exporting crime, is it time for New Zealand to cut ties with the lucky country?
This prison riot at Waikeria is the latest in a long line of increased crime events in New Zealand due to Australian government extradition policy. We are a small country and cannot handle receiving crime, the proceeds of crime, and the marketing of crime from Australia in such volume.
Forget travel bubbles. Is it time fo the New Zealand government to take a stand and officially treat Australia as a totally foreign country?

Kiwis commit crime in Australia and you're butthurt when we send your criminals back to you.
Re: Is it time to ditch the trans-Tasman partnership?
They only become criminals when they come here.
There would be no need for jails in New Zealand if it wasn't for Australia returning those that have learnt criminal ways over here.

Re: Is it time to ditch the trans-Tasman partnership?
Probably one of the best posts you've ever made. Even though you are not from either country in question.
If it is a case they are criminals before they enter Australia, why isn't there a provision for Australia to refuse them entry.
One of the points of my post...
...truth is Australia gets a lot of cheap labour from these criminals.

Re: Is it time to ditch the trans-Tasman partnership?
Practically what are you suggesting and how would this change anything? Criminals will still be deported. Is all you are looking to achieve making it harder for NZers to go to Australia if they choose? What is your logic here?

Re: Is it time to ditch the trans-Tasman partnership?
The status quo is not working for us. It's a looming disaster because there is no end to their policy. They will export whatever crime they can.
Why should New Zealanders be free to go to Australia if they choose? It's just another country and they are beginning to treat us as a rubbish dump for they own failures.
Even after Covid, the border needs to be applied visa only both ways. That way they can vet all the criminals trying to get to the Gold Coast.

Towny is wrong. This would be hugely detrimental to billions of Australians for some reason if it ever came to pass. I know my life wouldn't be the same.

Dont think many Aussies in here are proud of this governments immigration stance yet Kiwis need to stop leaning on the special treatment entitlement they think they are owed.
Otherwise NZ rely on Oz far too much economically so this is a really silly thread.
