. @ScottMorrisonMP is ready to #DumpDutton in a Cabinet reshuffle because over the past 6 years, @PeterDutton_MP has allowed people smugglers to shift their business model from boats to planes.

His incompetence has created a crisis at our borders with consequences for us all đŸ§”đŸ‘‡đŸ»
There are over 100,000 people who have come to Australia by plane & applied for asylum on @PeterDutton_MP’s watch.

According to Home Affairs, 90% of these arrivals are found not to be refugees.

This is not a migration system working in our national interest; it’s a work scam đŸ‘‡đŸ»
In this massive scam, people are being smuggled to Australia, forced to apply for asylum, and then exploited by labour hire firms. They are forced to work on farms, restaurants or in sex work.

Now @PeterDutton_MP has more protection applications on his desk than he can handle.
Take the latest onshore asylum claim processing report from May 2020.
 
There are 40,000 people we haven’t been able to process.

There are 50,000 people who have been denied protection but are still in the country.
 
And that’s while planes and people aren’t even arriving...
There’s nothing wrong with claiming asylum- it’s an important human right.

But these people are being exploited.

Even Dutton’s Asst Minister @JasonWood_MP has slammed the scam that has unfolded because of his boss’s incompetence.

Watch this
. @PeterDutton_MP‘s incompetence has caught up to him & he has no plan to clean up his spiralling mess.

You would think the Minister responsible for our borders (and who drones on about boats) would be concerned about this blowout.

Sadly, this is Mr Dutton’s response 🙄
The people trafficked to 🇩đŸ‡ș aren’t the only victims- there are consequences for all workers in Australia. Every time an employer exploits their workers, they create wage uncertainty across the economy.

It’s a race to the bottom- poor conditions, under payments & exploitation.
Worse still, the growing backlog means officers at @PeterDutton_MP’s Department of Home Affairs are having to spend their time on these applications rather than other important matters.

Taxpayers are having to pay for staff as they try to clean up @PeterDutton_MP’s mess.
