DIMIA moves from dumb pills to nasty pills

The government finally allowed Robert Jovicic back into Australia on 'compassionate grounds' this week.
We all thought it was too good to be true, didn't we? On his arrival he was told that he'd be given a temporary visa and that he should 'act in good faith" and apply for Serbian nationality.
Now, let's see, Robert was not recognised by Serbia when he was sitting on the streets there but now that he's back in the country he grew up in, perhaps the Serbs will realise their mistake and give him citizenship? So what? The government can deport him back there again?
This goes beyond wtf? This goes beyond DIMIA showing once again who is boss. This is bloody mindedness from a department and a government that's honed bloody mindedness to a fine art but can't seem to get enough of it.
The Labour Herald has something to say about this fiasco but Labour pollies themselves have been spinelessly silent.
Too busy fighting amongst themselves no doubt.
Dark days indeed.
