Is it time to ditch the trans-Tasman partnership?

[Enzedder]

I have no issue with the concept of sending back the crims - I would too.

But the process is so prolonged. They don't even start to look at deportation until after the jail sentence. Why not start/make the decision earlier, end the sentence and chuck them on a plane.

No need for the concentration camps.

Because you guys can't afford the extra prison space.

Oz is now down to 41k prisoners (160 per 100k population).

NZ is around 10k prisoners (210 per 100k population).

D'uh. They won't be coming here to jail (until they reoffend anyway)

Guessing it might be because they don't know whether/when they are going to be paroled, whether they will kill someone inside and end up with sentence doubled etc.

Therefore they go jail first and do not collect $200.

Then they get booted over one of several borders.

If you believe what you're saying you're not a troll.

Nonsense, he knows his extreme delusional racist and xenophobic mutterings elicit reactions and that’s why he makes them. Dressing it up as political discourse is the troll.

[Zakar]

All good. You will have to get your cheap labour from elsewhere. I've never understood why Kiwis have propped up the Australian economy for so long while Australian businesses have raided New Zealand's limited wealth.

Yep. Well get our forklift drivers from somewhere else.

Covid central perhaps. Those guys don't care.

This wouldn’t be an issue if NZ companies paid fair wages.

Weird. Honest people seeking higher work opportunities in coal driven Australia suddenly fall prey to the Comancheros. What the hell is going on over there?

Your country is full of scrum that prefer crime to real work.

They deport people who are not facing a prison sentence dont they. associating with the wrong crowd

Associating with an organised criminal gang is an actual jailable offence. Essentially, if you are scum ... bub-bye.

So, any crime worth a sentence of 12 months or more triggers automatic visa cancellation.

These deportations run about a 1000 a year.



NZ, daylight, UK and Vietnam top the drop-off destination list.

So are they only deporting people who have been convicting of associating with an organised criminal gang or are they saying to people that is what you are doing so we are deporting you.

OK, the AB's 1 to 8 have done fairly well in recent set-pieces against the Wobs. But not to the point when it would be fair claim NZ is 'full of scrum'.

[backrow]

Fairly sure trans Tasman crime works both ways re origin - wasn’t the NZ mosque shooter an Aussie , as well as that murderer who killed the pom backpacker and stuck her in a suitcase ?

Any country should have the power to deport who they wish, place of birth or even if they have been there is a bit immaterial. Plenty of gulf states zap you within 3 days of losing a job or covid outbreak , let alone crime !

[MungoMan]

He most assuredly is an Australian. And should the NZ penal system be crazy enough to let him out of prison while he is still breathing, no-one halfway reasonable would object to the NZ Government remitting him back to Straya in record time.

He racked up a decent break though, not quite Norwegian Brevik standard

I always struggle to work out why these mass killers don’t get into the hundreds when they are attacking unarmed people in confined spaces

Zak doing a sexy dance is the last thing on my mind, even figuratively.

It's clear young New Zealanders are heading over the ditch, being trained as criminals, and returned violent and angry. We have enough problems of our own without the huge gang scene in Australia adding to it.

Jacinda Ardern has called this policy "corrosive". I agree. The Federal government doesn't seem to care about the ANZAC spirit though, so it's time New Zealand thought about controlling what they can control.

First step would be to remove special visa rights for Australians here.

Im sure NZ's recent trading out of recession has mostly been due to over $34b in bilateral trade but if you think you should get out of that deal because of a couple of retuned bikies that we wont fund for you, go ahead.

[Dark]

MB isn't crying about wronged travellers. He's once again expressing his distaste for New Zealanders who live overseas, and his extreme nationalism.

True.

It is only matched by his hatred of probably the greatest Labour PM Savage

Why should trade be affected? Both New Zealand and Australia trade with many other countries and don't have special visa rights with them.

Oh no, Mutton wants to stop the trickle of Australian workers to NZ. That would be devastating to literally no one, and if anything, economically advantageous to Australia.

What’s step 2? Australia pays for NZ’s beautiful new seawall?

I assume Australia would then do the same. You can't send criminalised Kiwis back here if no Kiwis go over there in the first place.

Assume all you want. But, nah. I don’t imagine it’s in our interests to do obviously dumb shit like that. We will continue to allow NZ citizens full residence rights in Australia, regardless of what you do.

Who else will unload our bags from the plane and erect our scaffolding? Welcome kiwis! The water is warm and the beer is cold.

[Muttonbirds]

The bit I don't get is Dutton's criteria for deportation is different from the criteria for entry.

Why not stiffen the special visa to include "associating with bikie gangs" as a disqualification?
