A BBC article about Dr Haneef.
I haven’t said anything about this case on the blog, as anyone who knows me in the slightest would assume that I am very cross that this poor man has been locked up, interrogated, lost his job, lost his privacy, had his home trashed, been accused of some idiotic charge, and been denied access to his family.
The Australian Federal Police Commissioner admitted that the police had stuffed up badly, and yet STILL REFUSED TO APOLOGISE saying, “We did a good job on the investigation”. Makes about as much sense as the rest of the bullshit that has been said about Dr Haneef.
Now, let’s talk about character. Apparently, you can fail a “character test”, and lose your immigration status in this country. Let’s take a good hard look at our mighty leader….

I don’t think we ‘look like’ I think we ARE.

Don’t worry, whatever happens in your country, you couldn’t possibly be as embarassed about your “leader” as we in the US are…

Mr Wiggins was also saying he read something about instead of deporting Haneef, they’d just put him under some sort of residential arrest, so he could still live here, but couldn’t work. Yeah, great idea guys, that’ll make it up to the poor guy for trumped up charges & false accusations.

And now that he’s left, apparently he “looks suspicious”.
What the fuck else would he do? I’m sure I’d get the hell away from this bloody country in the circumstances!
At least he knows that ordinary Australians support him.
