In SA you can't end a fixed lease early without cause, but you can decline to renew it at the end with 28 days notice. Periodic leases can be terminated any time without cause with 90 days notice.

in QLD, you're required to give 2 months notice or the end of the lease period, whichever is later. Two months is a lot more breathing room than 28 days, from personal experience.

Pretty much. I've had several people who were either involved or had family that were involved tell me that the church would tell people that that they needed to vote for him, and used their enormous piles of money to run an sms voting campaign.

This was through Paradise Community Church. I've never been religious, but I wound up there one and found it absolutely terrifying. It's a well oiled and high tech brainwashing/money extraction machine.

One of my old workmates was a devout attender of Hillsong and I made the mistake of adding him on Facebook one day. Pretty much everything he posted gave me the impression of what someone would be like if they were in a cult, it was surreal.

With the Centrelink system rigged up as it is, you can't really trust anything you need to do reporting wise online. At least I wouldn't, and I'd get a reference number for every time I reported in.

It may be just easier to accept that asylum isn't a ticket to a first world country. Just get on with it and build a better life thankful that you aren't being sent back to your country of origin where you will allegedly be tortured and/or killed.

You obviously have no idea what these people face and why they're desperate as gently caress in the first place. You've just bought into the whole "economic migrant" BS and don't want those dirty boat people coming here taking your slice of the pie. A great example of FYGM mentality at work.

I don't know about that. There not in their own alleged horrible country. They are not being tortured or killed where they are. They are making GBS threads on their host nation in the hope they will be kicked them out and forced to be taken back by Australia. Arguably their largest gripe is that Nauru is a few thousand kilometers from the nearest Centrelink and all the other good things about a first world country.

Sorry if reality is too hard for you.

Yeah man, PNG and Nauru are loving beacons of hope in the night.

Are you really this head in the loving sand? When it comes to this issue, it's like you just want to hope beyond hope that "Nah mate, they're all fine there. Never mind the guards beating them around and the sexual assaults on men, women and children, just be glad it isn't happening to you and get on with life."

I really hope when someone's beating on you, that's the attitude everyone else has about it. Not happening to me? Cool.

You do realise that Australia is still their host nation, since they're locked in concentration camps where they're starved, beaten and raped, with the only possible solace being that they're welcome to go back and get decapitated by ISIL if the starvation, beatings and rape become a little too much?

Allegedly in mortal fear of being murdered, tortured, raped, beaten. gently caress this crap never ends. Based on what you are saying people are likely very happy that we are keeping an alleged large number of sexual predators out of our society.

Asylum seeker advocates are very good at portraying every other place besides Australia as some kind of dystopian nightmare that makes The Road seem like an episode of The Wiggles.

Who's been fed a few too many lines here and has their head in the sand I wonder?

Yeah, all this "crap" never ends. Better to just ignore those things (as well as the overwhelming evidence that supports their case) so you can smugly sleep at night with those opinions. Otherwise you might possibly feel guilty. Maybe.

What are you going to say next? The Human Rights Commission is clearly "partisan" and biased way too much in the direction of human rights? And where the gently caress do you pull sexual predators from? I'm sure no older white men are sexual predators at all. Nor would any defend them, not in this country. No sir.

You really have to love how this turd that has evolved legs and jumped out of the toilet before someone flushed manages to shove "alleged" in whenever he can, because if it's only "alleged" it isn't real and therefore never really happened and it's then ok to have shithead opinions on it then.

An independent expert has found aspects of Australia's asylum-seeker policies have breached the United Nations Convention Against Torture.

A report addressing concerns about Manus Island, as well as recent amendments to maritime laws, is due to be submitted to the UN Human Rights Council today.

It was prepared by Juan Mendez, the UN special rapporteur on torture.

Do you value the children in detention at all? Like does it bother you that they are fenced from the outside and free world? I know heaps of people who are like you but almost all of them put some consideration that there are indeed children in detention. They squirm, argue, claim it's for the better due to Asian Invasion/Islam/Africans. They never say that the children do not concern them though. In that regard they are at the very least, human.

Everyone here is calling you names, ignore them for a second and describe to me what you think about the children in detention. What does it mean to you?
