Head of ASIO Mike Burgess says his comments on the vetting process for people fleeing Gaza were misrepresented in the political storm over the issue of visas being offered to people trying to leave the war zone.

Where the fuck are we politically when asio is telling the right they’re being too xenophobic and hardline?

Fucking asio man, the org that pushed for the “we can hold you and you can’t even tell a lawyer it happened” laws.

    I pretty much loathe asio and everyone that works there for being part of something that gives refugees infinite sentencing with no court, explanation, appeal, or parole.

    That said, if they’re doing anything to try address at horrible xenophobia then for all my contempt I’m still happier than if they weren’t.
