The Morrison government has rejected a post-Brexit trade agreement that included visa-free work and travel between Australia and the United Kingdom. Trade Minister Simon Birmingham said changes to work rights would be proposed and accepted on both sides but not full free movement.

Free movement with any country is a bad idea. It only exists in the EU because it wants to be a single country - a superstate.
This is giving the British exactly what they want. End freedom of movement.
His done something right
We don't want UK terrorists coming down here
Why doesn't he reduce all migration to Auatralia. Our infrastructure requirements can't keep pace now.
Sneekyboy This one of the many great deals we were goint to do after Brexit when we were free to wheel and deal on the world stage like the revered and respected buccaneers that we are? Fucking Australia is on fire and it doesn't want to know!
But a country with no nukes is ok .NZ
In what intrest would this be to Australia? So we could import another 1,000,000 inept recruitment agents?
Thank god. The post Brexit British immigrants need to spend time on Manus while we check they’re not royal supporters.
It’s a good decision, more terrorist sympathisers in the UK than the ME atm...approval would have been a risk to national security
GB had full rights of access over 28 other countries but decided to pull out and take its chances.
NO I’m going to have to go back to England 😭😭😭😭😭
Might be a good idea to regain control of their own boarders before Australia even consider it
Any country tying itself to the EU automatically adopted free-movement of people via Schengen Agreement which was adopted into EU Law. Subtle corruption of the agreement and facilitates Invasion.
There is an immigration policy and it is fair to all. UK has yet to grasp that being in the Empire does not give you preference over other countries in 2019. Poisoned chalice if Morrison agreed. White Australia policy in all but name.
Who knows who entered Britain with all the truckloads of illegals.
WLudbey According to other media, The government argues it would cause an exodus of highly trained workers to the UK and an influx of unskilled British workers to Sydney and Melbourne.
WLudbey Australia's on fire.
At present, it’s a negotiation which will result in a positive outcome for both sides.
Not in our best interests at the moment. Unfortunately the UK has inherited a lot of home grown and EU problems and under this system it would difficult to keep them out. Wise move in my book
Check the top left corner of our flag
We MUST control our own borders.
Why ?
Why?
Why doesn't that surprise me?
Good, surely we can all apply for a visa before we travel or work..
