KKeneally Would you forcefully strip search and take a semen specimen from all men in a vicinity of rape crime scene?

KKeneally What a hypocrite. Kristina Keneally is all in for Muslim immigration into Australia but is 'outraged' at their way of life. Attitudes towards women in the Islamic world are very different to western societies, so why support the immigration of Muslims and this religious culture?

KKeneally Dr Kylie Moore Gilbert has been locked up in Iran since 2018 and virtually ignored by politicians. Outrage is only expressed when there is a headline in it for them. We are poorly served by Canberra!!!

KKeneally I haven’t heard one person express concern for and ask about the child. I think this omission from the discussion says far more about the supposed humans expressing their fake outrage. Far more passengers get inspected for drugs each day at airports.

KKeneally It is of course sexual assault and will be scarred in the memories of these women forever. They need a full and public apology and massive compensation or Australia should break off diplomatic relations with Qatar

KKeneally Why is Australian media and Pollies so suddenly shocked - of Qatar authorities stripping 18 Australian woman and probing their virginas? In fascist religious states in the middle east, woman have NO more rights than animals. Since the invention of religion.

geoffrey_payne KKeneally It is sexual assault. By every definition. No informed consent, any consent under coercion. Unwanted touching. Just as bad as NSW police at festivals.

KKeneally Why didn't they go over the airports cct vision to find the culprit!? Halt flights while they did it. Shouldn't have been that tough!

KKeneally It’s not Morrison that is preventing Australians from getting home, it is state premiers limiting quarantine places. Imagine what it would be like if NSW wasn’t bringing in so many.

KKeneally Everyone keeps condemning....what is being done about it. Politicians quick to jump on the bandwagon until something else happens that grabs their agenda

KKeneally Therefore all cavity searches are 'sexual assault'?

KKeneally To everyone outraged by this, take that anger and point it towards ausgov and ScottMorrisonMP. They have left 100,000+ aussies stranded overseas with no choice but transit through countries like this RemoveTheCaps

LesStonehouse KKeneally Well, for the first time, I agree with KKeneally . Qatar should stand condemned in the strongest terms by the Australian gov't.

KKeneally She demands huh?.....the govt are already dealing with this, stop going for headlines and instead support them so that these laws are never acceptable on our shores. Just be an adult.

KKeneally Why is Labor starting to make this more and more political? Australian citizens were raped by the Qatari government. This is not a blue vs red fight.

KKeneally Just local customs, it seems like.

KKeneally Sounds like a great place to hold the football worldcup. Many women football fans would appreciate seeing how they may be treated if they travel to Qatar for the football worldcup in 2022. I'm sure they can change thousands of years of thinking in the year and a half left to go.

KKeneally How does she know it was sexuall assault ? She wasn't their .

KKeneally Bark bark bark bark bark

KKeneally LNP don't care. They allow strip searching of underage girls and boys without parental consent or supervision.

KKeneally Bird brain speaks, lol.

Toll of veteran suicides 'continues to rise' in Australia | Sky News AustraliaSky News contributor Catherine McGregor says far too many Australian war veterans have taken their own lives in despair and are over-represented among young men “sleeping rough” in the nation’s major cities. \n\n“Those who have served on operations overseas know that the bonds forged among soldiers are powerful,” she said. \n\n“Sadly, for many, nothing fills the gap in their lives when they come home. More of our service men and women have taken their own lives in Australia than died in Afghanistan-by a factor of 10 to 1.\n\n“Yesterday marked the start of veterans’ mental health week. \n\n“It is a cause close to my heart. I led Australian soldiers on operations overseas twice and deployed three times. I bear no scars from my service, but many do.\n\n“Far too many have taken their own lives in despair. Veterans of recent conflicts are over-represented among young men sleeping rough in our major cities. Others have felt abandoned after leaving the service and trying to deal with a clumsy bureaucracy to access mental health support.”\n\nMs McGregor said the toll of suicides among veterans was continuing to rise in Australia. \n\n“It has been a tough year for everyone,” she said. \n\n“Most Australians are stressed and anxious about their future. But this week spare a thought for veterans and their families. And if you can support an accredited charity do so. \n\n“Lest we forget.”\n\nAnyone who may be feeling distressed can contact the following organisations for support.\n\nSANE Helpline 1800 18 72 63\n\nLifeline 131 114\n\nBeyond blue 1300 22 4636 any left Morrison will kill with aged care, vets affairs policy, robodebt or other wars We can all thank the Australian defenceless for this I heard from a veteran in UK that their govt doesn't want to help them. They are seen as a threat because they love their country and people. Govt encorage and look after Ilegal immigrants as their existence threatens the indigenous population.
