The authorities are scared because racism is thrown at them at every opportunity. I observed an immigration visit where the children had clearly not eaten for days (if not weeks). An immigration officer asked the children what they wanted for breakfast - as there was NO food in the house - and the children replied McDonalds. As the officers were paying (no expenses allowed due to cut backs) they got coco pops. The mother lodged a JR and cited the Immigration officer trying to force McDonalds on her children which was against their religion and therefore racist. Small example of a bigger picture. |
