“If an Australian who has broken no Australian law can be held in a cage for years at the request of a foreign power, without an Australian court ever testing the actual evidence, one can’t help wondering what protections are actually offered by Australian citizenship.”

On another point; the so-called "ISIS brides" are Australian citizens. If any of them is a problem, then they're our problem. Leaving them for someone else to deal with is irresponsible at best. #AusPol #citizenship

@DropBear@theblower.au I recall some similar situation quite a few years ago. I think it was about copyright laws. At the time I was considering asking our government what other country's laws do we have to abide by? The USA is definitely one of them. I expect the UK might be another.
