Well it certainly helps, but really Australian migration is run on a "points" system, basically they're more lenient depending on how well the countries doing and what they actually need. My relatives who emigrated there did it easily because trained nurses and technicians were in high demand at the time they applied. If your job skills aren't in demand you'll have to jump through more hoops, like do have a job offer, what's your savings, where exactly are you planning on living etc. Anything can be used as grounds for rejection though. Another relative was denied entry because of a family history of mental problems, even though that was the family of her husband who had died. And I remember one story of a bloke who got rejected because he was a bank manager.

Honestly the most amazing thing about white South Africans who move to Australia is that most of them manage to be so racist that they creep out the average suburban Australian hick. I used to work with this one guy who was laughing about the fact that back in South Africa he trained his dog to attack black people and got really mad when people told him that was hosed up

Vladimir Poutine posted:The Seventh Day Adventists in Tonga are pretty funny because they consider the international date line to be in a different place. They're one of the only denominations who have church on Saturdays and they couldn't convince Tongans to go then instead of Sundays because church on Sundays was pretty ingrained in Tonga by the point they showed up. So they just redrew their world maps so that the international date line was on the other side of Tonga, thus making Sunday Saturday. Interesting thread. When I was growing up in the SDA church there was a special interest in Pitcairn Island as most (all?) of the inhabitants were SDAs. There were several ham radio operators in my church who made a point of regularly working the Pitcairn station. Hilarious and sad that a bunch of them turned out to be kiddie diddlers. My mother left me several books on Pitcairn that I need to read sometime, but I suspect they won't mention this aspect of island life. Praise Jesus and save me a 10 year old!

The Nauru files: 2,000 leaked reports reveal scale of abuse of children in Australian offshore detention More than 2,000 leaked incident reports from Australia’s detention camp for asylum seekers on the remote Pacific island of Nauru – totalling more than 8,000 pages – are published by the Guardian today. The Nauru files set out as never before the assaults, sexual abuse, self-harm attempts, child abuse and living conditions endured by asylum seekers held by the Australian government, painting a picture of routine dysfunction and cruelty. https://www.theguardian.com/austral...shore-detention
