A New Zealand-born mother of six who has lived almost her entire life in Australia and was jailed for drug offences has begged Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to soften his stance on deportations.
Kelly Blacker, 43, is locked in the Perth Immigration Detention Centre as she appeals the Australian Government's decision to revoke her
permanent residency. .....................................................
........................................... But Police Federation of Australia chief executive Mark Burgess said it did not make sense to treat New Zealanders differently from other nationals.
"If you're not an an Australian citizen, you're here on a
visa and you break the law, and you commit criminal offences, then I think the general public would expect that you would be denied the right to stay here," Mr Burgess said. .........................."
Is "permanent residency" a kind of "visa"?
