UK born British-Canadian citizen? So another far right anti-immigrant immigrant, coming to the US to stir up shit? When will we deport this clown and Phony Stark?
That's one area I'm proud of Australia for. We frequently deny travel for problematic people - most recently Candace Owens was denied entry. Most likely for saying that Australia should be invaded, but she's said a lot of horrible stuff so who can tell!
We do have our share of anti-immigrant immigrants though.
Jack van Tongeren comes to mind. A Dutch migrant that hated asians. He set fire to a bunch of Asian restaurants. There was something of a political movement IIRC, they wanted to send asian migrants back to where they came from (?!) and relocate Australia's Capital City to Alice Springs because it was geographically central.
I don’t know much about Australia, but isn’t the geographically central part the least ~~pleasant~~ livable part?
Yes!
I mean I don't want to be mean about where someone lives. About 33k people live in Alice Springs and I'm sure it's a great place to be.
That said, it really is in the middle of the desert. It's harsh beauty is breathtaking even on google maps satellite view:
There's no sensible reason to move Australia's Political capital in any case.
I doubt it's even feasible to support a large population in that area.
Yeah, perhaps I should have said livable instead of pleasant. I’ll change it. But Phoenix and Las Vegas have a lot of problems because they’re giant cities built in places that can’t really support populations that size using water in the way they do.
How far away is that from Barter Town?
how the hell has he not been kicked out yet?
Some of those that work forces...
Too late. He's yours now. We aren't taking him back.
Deporting just means we kick him out of our country, you don't have to accept him in yours. A raft in the Atlantic should suit him fine!
There's the actual real garbage island in the ocean, he belongs in the trash. (And no I don't mean Puerto Rico, that island has suffered enough)
A plan with no drawbacks. Do it!
