Simon says "This would be more funny if you didn't have that horrible
feeling that they may have already actually considered it...".

CANBERRA - The Australian Federal Government has announced a crackdown on
illegal immigrants, after discovering 300,000 overstayers calling
themselves 'Aboriginals'.

"I don't care what they're calling themselves," said Australian Prime
Minister John Howard. "If they're not 'Australians' then they can just
piss off out of our Fair Country right now. These bloody buggers had the
audacity to sneak into Australia 40,000 years ago - before ordinary decent
white Australians had a chance to set up a proper Immigration Department.

"Obviously the whole thing was orchestrated just to get around Australia's
immigration laws - immigration laws, I might add, which do a great job of
keeping out the sort of undesirable trash, like these, which typically
come in from darkie countries."

Government officials were originally at a loss to explain why
'Aboriginals' had remained undetected on census forms for so long. "But
then we remembered that Aboriginals were only classed as 'people' from
1998, laughed the Chief Government Censor, Ms Jennie Levine. "Before that
they were never actually given census forms!"

Australia has received strong international criticism for its decision to
deport the 300,000 "overstayers", including condemnation from the United
Nations Human Rights Commissioner Mary Robinson.

But John Howard defended the Government's decision, pointing to
Australia's "proud humanitarian record", and citing many thousands of
examples over the years of "Aboriginal children being taken away from
their dirty families, and placed in the care and nurture of good white
Australians - thereby giving them all the stability and opportunity in
life that they could possibly require."

"What the United Nations doesn't realise is that Abo's are different. And
different is bad," smiled John Howard benignly.

Mr Howard also slammed the international trend towards apologizing to
oppressed peoples, instead issuing an apology to white Australians "for
the guilt that we have wrongly been made to feel."

Opinion polls estimate up to 17 Australians being opposed to the planned
deportation, nationwide.

"All the bloody Abo's ever did for Australia was take our handouts anyway,
the freeloaders," commented Rod Tunstall of Perth (55).

"And what about the Asians, too?" asked Fran Hazeldine of Melbourne (37).
"You can't get a seat on the trams or buses any more, because of them."

Pauline Hanson, founder of the One Nation party, commented that the
Government's decision was "as good as far as it goes," but that she would
"like to see the Government get really tough with these scumbags."

The first reading of the Deportation of Aboriginals Bill was passed
through the House of Representatives by a unanimous vote late last night.
Political commentators expect a substantial rewrite of the Bill however,
due to fears that a central clause, requiring that "all families with
criminal ancestors shall go back home where they came from", would
(unintentionally) apply to the entire European population of Australia.
