I wanted you to tell me the truth - not give me your opinion.

Is this your opinion, or fact - "It's mostly Maori" ?

No you didn't. You asked me a question. Be clearer next time. Say- black or white? Factual and a link please? Black or white? is an open ended question.

NZ MP speaks up for Christmas Island detainees deported for minor offences


MICHAEL BRISSENDEN: New Zealand's Maori Party says some of the detainees being held on Christmas Island have had their Australian visas cancelled after committing minor crimes, including shop lifting and traffic offences.

The Immigration Minister Peter Dutton has stressed a significant number of almost 200 detainees are hardened criminals whose visas have been revoked after they'd been jailed for serious offences carrying jail terms of more than a year.

Offences included rape and assault.

The Maori Party's co-leader Marama Fox says some of the New Zealanders have committed less serious offences and they're frustrated at how long it's taking to decide on appeals against deportation.

She spoke to Peta Donald in Canberra.

MARAMA FOX: This is a double jeopardy for people who have already served their time in prison, should be released on parole conditions, and yet have been detained for indefinite periods of time, told one thing and experience another, told maybe two months at the most and have been there now six and seven months.

And hence this ongoing waiting, waiting has sparked the sort of feeling that has now erupted.

Not just the waiting, but we have reports that people have been held in isolation for 23 hours a day, that they have been denied basic amenities like a bed, clothing, warmth.

We've been told that some people have suffered beatings, have had their medication withheld from them.

And remember, these are people who have served their time for the various criminal offences that under this new law could range from shoplifting and also traffic violations, all the way up to serious crimes.

PETA DONALD: Most of the New Zealanders who were there though, they're fairly hardened criminals to get a one year jail term, wouldn't you say?

MARAMA FOX: Well, a one year jail term, as I've already mentioned, includes people who may be shoplifters, who might have had traffic violations. On top of that…

PETA DONALD: One year jail term?

MARAMA FOX: That's right. One person who we understand has been detained neglected to fill out his log book subsequent times and was hence given a 15 month sentence, of which he didn't serve the whole sentence.

PETA DONALD: If it's so tough for these people waiting it out on Christmas Island, why don't they accept the Australian Government's offer to be flown back to New Zealand, and if their appeal against being deported is successful then they can come back to Australia?

MARAMA FOX: Because what they're being told when they sign those documents is that they give up their rights to appeal.

So actually the information that they are being given and the information that is being reported are two different things at the moment.

What we are asking for is that the Australian Government allow observers into the detention centre to see for themselves the conditions under which they have been detained and to ascertain the safety of those people who are in there.

And to - if they were on the mainland, then they could seek proper legal counsel around whether or not they do have some rights there, whether or not if they signed these documents, this documentation, they will be allowed to continue with their appeal and be possibly granted access back into Australia where they have homes, where they have mortgages, where they have families.

PETA DONALD: Marama Fox from the Maori Party in New Zealand speaking to Peta Donald.

"The Māori Party is for all citizens of Aotearoa New Zealand.

"Its founding was an initiative of Māori, te kākano i ruia mai i Rangiātea, for the benefit of all citizens of this land."

Yet you can't provide any evidence to prove that claim.

Until then, it's just your opinion.
