webfact Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Australian deputy PM says he respects court decision that ruled him ineligible for parliament Australian Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce sits in the House of Representatives at Parliament House in Canberra, Australia, August 14, 2017. AAP/Mick Tsikas/via REUTERS/Files SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce said on Friday he respected a High Court verdict that ruled he was ineligible to sit in parliament because he held dual citizenship, a decision that cost the government it's one-seat majority.

That's because all those pensioners who lives in Thailand have no voice, no MP want to pick up the cause to fight for people who paid taxes all their working life and be treated like a pariah and second citizens by their own government ... while the government pays billions for doll bludgers...

tezzainthailand Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Good riddance to bad rubbish. The beginning of the end of this stinking corpse of a government. No idea, no jobs, no drop in electricity prices (as promised) ,aiding and abetting the super wealthy and leaving the scraps for the peasants. Australia has had a taste of Thatchersim. It won't be pretty at the ballot box for fraudster Malcom. Bring it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thechook Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 All the decisions he made and all the votes he cast whilst impersonating an M.P should now be void. It is a criminal offence to give false or misleading information to the electoral commission and the highest court in the land has found he did this. This germ should be charged, do his time in prison and deported to New Zealand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thechook Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 So Fiona Nash, Barnaby ' s deputy and next in line to be Acting Prime Minister whilst numnuts Turnbull is overseas has also been found guilty. That only leaves Barnaby Joyce ' s gardener to step up and take the countries reigns. Highly experienced at spreading manure on the mushrooms.

I don't think you've thought this through Dexlowe. If Barnyard gets deported back to Kiwiland it will raise the IQ in both countries ( borrowed from the late great Piggy Muldoon) It's a shame Piggy's not around for this, he'd have loved it.

It appears that the courts are determined to keep Australias IQ at a world level low no matter how much we try and help. A half baked Australian Court is it? The information you have posted suggests you are not an Australian or even a New Zealander as you really have no idea. Joyce held dual citizenship, hence his disqualification from holding a position in the Australian government. He does not have to apply and receive approval for anything. He was born in Australia, therefore by birth is an Australian citizen. Now here is the little bit that you have no idea about. Under New Zealand law, children born to a New Zealand citizens automatically obtain citizenship. It does not have to be activated or applied for. I'd suggest you check your facts before posting. Given his dad was a New Zealander, this is the law that applies. He obtained it by decent. therefore by holding dual citizenship he has breached section 44 of the constitution and is ineligible to sit in the Australian Parliament. Nothing to do with I.Q's and seeing what you wrote is completely fictitious, I cannot see how your IQ would help us Aussies in anyway. Oh by the way, who are we and when did us Aussies seek your help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
