This reeks of a president seeking to maintain power, rather than a defencive move against Russia. Everybody knew this was gonna' happen. Well, here it is, what is the toothless UN going to do now?

PM proposes law to strip terrorists of Australian citizenshipUnder current laws, the Government can only strip citizenship from people who have been sentenced to at least six years' jail, but Scott Morrison will introduce legislation so citizenship can be taken from anyone convicted of terrorism offences. Why is this so difficult? As Australians who live in foreign countries, if we commit crimes & are found guilty, we know that we will serve our sentence & be deported without any appeal. Time for Australia to do the same & get rid of the bad apples. Alternative headline. Labor scared their voters will be deported. NOT make easier make it compulsory! And no redress to any court either!

So when politicians are desperate and cannot come up with decent policies state pollies drag out law and order just as federally they use terrorism?
