The Australian Government “Public Sector Guidance Sheet” concerning the “Expulsion of Aliens” proudly notes that “Australia is a party to seven core international human rights treaties.” But when John Howard famously said, in his 1999 election speech, that “…we will decide who comes to this country and the circumstances in which they come,” what he was really saying was “We will decide who is entitled to Human Rights.” Apparently being human is not a sufficient qualification.
