Scott Morrison has all but confirmed Afghan interpreters who helped Australian troops will be evacuated and offered protection.

But the prime minister has been careful in commenting on how long the process would take, fearful it could put the interpreters at risk of persecution.

"This is a program we know well. We have done it before and we will work through this steadily. Our form and our record is being able to use our special humanitarian visa processes to do the right thing."READ MORE

Hahahaha! The rhetoric is funny but the reality is showing up at the US Border with Mex and the US VP is changing her lines from 2019. I am happy to be flexible but open border means Aus takes thousands; they will come; HOW MANY WILL YOU ACCEPT?

Eventually, if Isis doesn’t get to them first.

The Government helps them but won’t resettle the Biloela family That’s not right PM! That’s discrimination in fact & it’s disgusting!😡😱😤

KEEP HIM TO HIS WORD ON THIS!

On Christmas Island 😎

As they should. We should not abandon those Afghani that risked thier lives to support our troops. Give them a home here. They will make great Australians.

What about the Tamils

Correct and right but keep two aussie kids in detention! A national shame!

That’s long due Mr PM. Those people helped the forces and their lives are in danger in that place

When's the photo op?

Scomo for the next decade

As quickly as possible please

Wtf is this headline/story. Seriously. Will there be a scavenger hunt next? Bringing in a 'body language 'expert''

all but confirmed eh? say no more.

ScottMorrisonMP the game show announcer.

‘All but confirmed’ - so they haven’t confirmed this? And their families? ScottyTheAnnouncer scottytheliar

And why would they? They’ve stood by our troops for almost 20 years I’m pretty sure they deserve our gratitude

He'd better! Or I will leave him there!

So gets slammed by the voters, and then suggests he might have changed his mind. Even if it’s in writing, the Liberals are likely to go back on their word, they certainly have form for it (especially Abbott when he was PM)

Better include their families.. they will be hunted down by the Taliban.

oh and 9000 citizens in.india die? AND ANOTHER 31000 planet wide die? good news DO BOTH

Of course he would say that. Probably send them straight to Christmas Island along with the Murugappan family. HometoBiloela More ScottyTheAnnouncer bullshit auspol LNPbastardry

Stop talking and start doing please

'All but confirmed'? 'Strongest indication yet'? 🤦‍♀️ Guess those interpreters are feeling pretty relieved then

northway_debbie Reeks of core and non core promises.

Will it happen while they are still alive?

northway_debbie “All but” being the operative statement.

And so they should be! No rule out Vaccine Passports! NoVaccinePassportsAnywhere

I mean what did we achieve? We didn't mine all their minerals. (USGS), Afghanistan may hold 60 million metric tons of copper, 2.2 billion tons of iron ore, 1.4 million tons of rare earth elements (REEs) such as lanthanum, cerium, neodymium, and veins of aluminium, gold, silver

gees that must of hurt!

In which case I’d be pretty worried about their welfare

Yet again we have to force LNP to do right thing...do they actually have conscious and empathy removed before becoming pollies

ecobard I will believe it when it comes to fruition!

Make sure the ones prepared to give evidence of Australian war crimes are at the front of the evacuation queue

Well duh! Of course we should!

Reasonable and fair.

Until they touch down on Australian soil and not Christmas Island etc it’s not fact.

Mans an incompetent fool

What about the rest of the Afghans? Is there no love for them any more to sacrifice Australian txapayer billions and Whitefella European-Australian lives in Afghanistan?

Does that mean 7 years in detention?

If he made an 'announcement' then it's bullshit and nothing will happen...

All but confirmed? Strongest indication? I love the decisiveness

LetUsBackToAus InternationalStudentsAustralia freezeourvisas extend485visas Why ScottMorrisonMP is not protecting International students? Why they been abandoned overseas from last 15 months? Is it good to take away education rights from International students?

And their families?

You can not do anything but. They represent the premise of your idiology. Another FAILED attempt

Well thats them f^cked then

All but. famous last words, from where ScottyFromMarketing speaks.

‘All but confirmed’? He’s given full blown promises that have fallen flat. Hardly worth reporting this till it actually happens. auspol

Good news. The Australian govt is doing the right thing. Just a shame they have to leave their country and see it turn to sh*t after so much effort.

Afghan interpreters who helped Australian troops kill children.. fixed it for you.

All about the announcement, but there will be no action

Yea, Right...HE LIES.

this better not be just another bloody announcement..

Until he confirms it, don't report it.
