. @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

There are over 100,000 people who have come to Australia by plane & applied for asylum on @PeterDutton_MPâs 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; itâs a work scam

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 havenât been able to process.
There are 50,000 people who have been denied protection but are still in the country.
Â
And thatâs while planes and people arenât even arriving...

According to these figures, another 1,500 people applied for asylum in May.

They are unwilling participants in a crisis @PeterDutton_MP is responsible for...

The blowouts in asylum claim processing only exacerbates the problem.
It creates a honeypot.
Smugglers can tempt and exploit more people to sign up to the scam because they promise extended work rights given how long the processing takes. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/mar/06/keneally-says-surge-in-visitors-on-tourist-visas-claiming-asylum-exposes-dire-system

Thereâs nothing wrong with claiming asylum- itâs an important human right.
But these people are being exploited.
Even Duttonâs Asst Minister @JasonWood_MP has slammed the scam that has unfolded because of his bossâs incompetence.

. @PeterDutton_MPâs 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 Duttonâs response

The people trafficked to
arenât 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.
Itâs a race to the bottom- poor conditions, under payments & exploitation.

Worse still, the growing backlog means officers at @PeterDutton_MPâs 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_MPâs mess.

Only @PeterDutton_MP could make a mess that has such serious and widespread consequences.

You used to be able to trust the Liberals with Australiaâs borders.

Sadly, that is not the case anymore.
No wonder @ScottMorrisonMP wants to #DumpDutton. https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/more-asylum-seekers-arrive-on-planes-amid-trafficking-fears-20191230-p53nlt.html
