The politicians blocking these kids from coming back to Australia should be ashamed of themselves
Australian children are trapped in a Syria in dreadful danger. At this time Save the Children have shown more leadership, decency and humanity than every Australian media outlet and every member of the Lib/Labor/PHON parties combined. Thank you to them.

PSA: You can opt out of the face screening camera at airport security BUT you have to tell them before they scan your ID. When you walk up say "I'd like to opt out of the facial recognition screening."
Brought to you by security refusing to let me opt out "because you already gave us your ID." 🙄
