Cruel policies of Tony Abbott, Australia's prime minister to refugees and asylum seekers
Photos satire about Tony Abbott with an aboriginal, indigenous Australians. Image: BBM group. I am tempted to write about the problems of refugees and asylum seekers crossing into Australia from countries such as Iran, Afghanistan or Iraq through Indonesia. I've written this problem before, but since I received photos of Tony Abbott with a native ( aborigin ) Australian, I am finally writing again about this complicated issue. The photo on the left was sent by my friend in the group the BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) last night. Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott vowed to implement a controversial plan to stop asylum seekers from reaching the nation's shores. ''The people who have come illegally to this country need to know that they are breaking our laws, that they are, if I may say so, taking advantage, unfair advantage of our decency as a people,'' Mr. Abbott said.
