On that score, neither do Labor and tax.

Can anyone come up with a genuine exception?

THE federal government will pay families up to $300 a week to temporarily house asylum seekers in their homes to help deal with the increasing flood of arrivals.
With the Immigration Department now facing a potential shortage of community housing to accommodate detainees who are being released into the community, the government has turned to householders for help.
Surely Gillard could just pick up the phone to Abbott and get the Pacific Solution back up and running...
Such an insult to all the Australians, many of whom have paid taxes, who are unemployed or homeless and not offered any such comfort.Agree, and now this...
Aussies asked to take in asylum seekers, and be paid for it

No doubt we will also be funding interpreting services, taxis to medical and dental care etc. The attendant costs over and above the $300 per person housed will be endless.

Are the ASF Left putting their hands up here?
True, however it is cheaper than running an asylum centre so I am for it, particuaely with regard to children. We have certain obligations that we have to keep for asylum seekers.
We should differentiate this policy from the failed alternative to the Pacific solution.
Are you taking any, Knobby?

I know a family from Ireland who has taken in an Irish footballer .
Tht'a a vastly different proposition from taking in someone of a different race, culture, language, standards of hygiene and attitudes to women, and want their food to be prepared according to their religious beliefs
I think it would be a bad idea for poor people to take them in. Rich Wentworth Greenies should put their hands up.
However having seen a few of them I would be happy to take in a young Somali woman for nothing.
No.I cloud the issue because I'm interested in the outcome. Does it actually achieve it's purpose.
Rednecks all over the country continually whine about the lack of assimilation from new arrivals, but continually fob it off as someone else's problem.Agree, and now this...

You are just a foreigner, after all.
For god's sake, Eager, disagree with someone by all means, but the above type of personal crudity does you no credit and absolutely doesn't advance the discussion.Rednecks all over the country continually whine about the lack of assimilation from new arrivals, but continually fob it off as someone else's problem.
Get off your shiny asre and do something about it.
I certainly might.

As some 90% of asylum seekers are Muslim and due to the fact we now have nearly 500,000 Muslims in Australia, I should imagine it would be fitting for them to billet their beloved brethren.
I wonder how many of these people will put their hands up?
Perhaps the Gillard Government should be sending out letters to all Muslims living in Australia to do their bit in the National interest.
And pigs might fly too.
