Derryn Hinch throws future of refugee medical transfer bill into doubt

Smart person

Waiting too see what he can get from the Libs before making an 'educated' and 'informed' decision. Goodness knows, the first thing i would do when considering someone's health issues is speak to a security agency.

Hinch once again demonstrating its all about him. So full of self importance this spot light addict.

It always has to be about Derryn

Australia held to ransom by this self promoter. SAD

Hope he takes his briefings and the conditions and caveats seriously.

Attention seeking

Good on you Derryn. Considering Nauru hospital hasa $20 million upgrade, I don’t understand why any of them need to come here for treatment. Nauru’s hospital is better than some rural ones here.

Looka me, looka me!

Floodgates about to open thanks to a bunch of psalm singing left wing greenie gronks in Canberra. Thankyou Wentworth for delivering the nation the arch oxygen thief Phelps

HumanHeadline hope u and other show commonsense and do not proceed with any policy which gives foreigners a backdoor entry via medical condition. It would be retarded. ScottMorrisonMP billshortenmp

This is how Australian democracy works the bill now in the hands of an alcoholic who is abusing his way through a second liver donated to him. FOff Hinch you’re a disgrace.

Voting WITHOUT understanding & questioning the details and possible consequences of any bill is exactly what NO politician should do, ever. I don't like Hinch's customary attention-seeking but I support him this time.

The god complex on show

Quick Derryn. Set up a conference call toute suite, speak to someone who is NOT directly profiting from incarceration.

😡

At least he is admitting he needs professional advice from the experts .. wise

Just like this prat he should still be in jail,but no we allow him to make crucial decisions on our country's future

What a doofus .. it’s not his job to speak to any security agencies at all .. it’s his job to vote .. that’s it. He’s playing games with lives now .. again

Hinch: look how important I am.......

Of course he is. Sigh. Mr Irrelevance living up to 'human headline'.

kelliekelly23 Be sensible Derryn.

HumanHeadline let us hope he can stop the change

Clearly trying to score some attention.

Wow!......usually politicians use their feelings to instigate policies and procedures, why are they trying to use evidential wisdom now? pilltesting gaymarriage Whiteprivilege illegalimmigration

kelliekelly23 At last a pragmatic politician

kelliekelly23 More likely saw an opportunity to be the centre of attention when the result was decided by a single vote. He’s not called HumanHeadline for nothing

God, you are there first hand and you still don't understand it do you. Even I understand what the amendment was.. get real HumanHeadline and wake up to the fact that nothing much changes to the existing policy or are you just looking for a human headline yet again..

Derryn Hinch thinks this is all about him.

Where is Shorten to explain his weakening of our border laws? Seems hes running away again straight into hiding auspol abc smh LaborFail qldpol nswpol wapol skynews

His chance to grandstand beavers goes by without being used.

What a kiwi wanker! Have another drink mate !

Will the flood start again is the question. People dying at sea is not a option.

FFS

Must have needed to get 👋 s name in the paper again

Glad HumanHeadline using common sense. May get back in good books with those of us that wrote him off after previous missteps. People smugglers will ignore the fine print; this ALP softening is all it takes to have children & adults dying at sea once again. Bad legacy.

Is Hunch up for election this year? If so he'll be toast if he backs the government....

Hopefully he will be as unnecessary as he is irrelevant.

Australia. 2019. Derryn Hinch controls our borders.

Opportunistic at best

That's because hinch hasn't got a clue he just acts like he does. Ex jail bird in with government WOW auspol

He doesn't give a stuff re his public register

Amen auspol

Hence the reason Dutton and Morrison started talking about paedophiles on Manus and Nauru last week. Hinch loves a good, nasty, unverifiable rumour.

Security concerns over refugee medical transfer bill | Sky News AustraliaAustralia’s intelligence agencies have reportedly warned against draft laws to change how medical transfers are processed for asylum seekers in offshore detention, claiming it could undermine the nation's border security.\n\nA briefing from the Department of Home Affairs says the medical transfer bill will strip the government of its power to conduct proper security threat assessments or stop mainland transfers, The Australian reports. \n\nThe changes, inspired by a push from independent MP Kerryn Phelps, would mean any two doctors could request a medical transfer for those in offshore detention.\n\nASIO has warned up to a 1000 asylum seekers could arrive in Australia within weeks if Kerryn Phelps’ medical transfers bill becomes law. \n\n\n\n PeterDutton_MP Rubbish from a rubbish lying government.
