The Turnbull Govt has been secretly negotiating a “Global Migration Deal” with the UN, which Peter Dutton has refused to rule out signing. Disturbing and disgraceful! There is NO justification for Australia to be part of any migration accord with the UN! Period!
Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton has declared the Australian government will not be signing up to a major United Nations agreement on migration “in its current form” despite the fact Australia helped negotiate the deal.
The comments come after The Australianreported earlier this week that the Turnbull government had left open the door to withdrawing from the Global Compact for Migration that so far only the US and Hungary have failed to sign.
While the US dropped out in December, the government of Hungary’s anti-immigration nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban announced last week the country would also quit the pact.
Asked on 2GB by Alan Jones if Australia was going to sign up to the agreement, Mr Dutton said: “not in its current form. We’ve been very clear about that”.
