Well, Australia's current system of indefinite offshore detention of asylum seekers (including unaccompanied children!) breaches a number of human rights determinations. Everyone from Australia's own human rights watchdog, to the UN, to freaking AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL, has called out the current government's shit and they. don't. care.

This fuck should fit right in.

Keep the Vegimite to yourselves and we'll call it even. Also, would it kill you to send us some better beer? This Fosters stuff is not your best - you can't fool all of us with the big cans and slick marketing forever, now. Sources tell me this is not the only beer sold in Australia and is actually what you drink when you have no better alternative. I would think you would want your taste in fermented beverages better represented than with the least desirable product available. Just a thought.

Poor Australia. I picture the uniformed guys in shorts with aerosol cans on international flights. Do they still do that?
