CCTV captures foreign fishermen landing on a Far North Queensland island resort and asking the bar for refreshments, before their boat is intercepted by the border force.
The Labor Government want to get onto this quickly and quietly! This is such a culture war risk for them. Also, with the geopolitical way the world has turned, theres a real national security angle to making sure the borders are patrolled adequately, however costly that is.
Of course whatever they do they have to remember Dutton’s mantra, “We don’t comment on, on water matters.”
Also, are these fishermen charged with things like illegal entry, and illegally fishing? Surely theres criminal remedies that come into play at some point otherwise theres no deterrent.
Direct contact with the foreign boogeyman is incredibly dangerous. It has been shown to reduce baseless fears and prejudices. In some cases it can even redirect that anger towards the real problems in the world.
I’m more talking about thebpolitical risk, and marginally about enforcement of fishing rights in exclusive zones. As fish stocks are depleted north of Australia, we’ll see more of this, better we can have a predictable, coherent and sustainable policy from the beginning.
But in all seriousness this kind of immigration culture war shit was a huge totem hanging around the last Labor government, and certainly contributed to their downfall. I don’t want to see conservatives, of any stripe, come back in federally for a long time. Labor might not be all people hoped for but they’re doing more than almost a decade of Coalition ever did.
