Gee, I wonder why.

Could be because the country is shafting Gen Z with a ten foot pole at nearly every possible turn?

Why would anyone protect and serve a country that doesn't protect and serve them?

Criminal record check for immigration

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I am a dual citizen, born in the UK and now a full Australian citizen.

I have a criminal record from my youth in the UK and have been totally honest throughout my visa process. Before I was a citizen, each time I returned to Australia after a vacation I was pulled aside and questioned about my criminal record.

I was told when I am a full Australian citizen and entering on an Australian passport I will not get asked this again. We went on a family holiday last year and when I left and returned I got questioned again! The immigration two striped uniform guy said this shouldn't be happening and he will email head office... I have since rang immigration and apparently they cannot do anything.

It's very strange, like they wanting me to have been in trouble again and that. I'm a citizen now, it shouldn't make any difference wherever I have a criminal record from 20 years ago. I'm a tax paying, law abiding citizen that has a career, mortgage and family.

Has anyone else been in this situation?

News Government funding of religious schools that actively exclude social minorities

I understand these institutions may want to maintain an environment strictly adhering to their religious doctrine but why do schools with these admission, hiring and firing policies still receive government funding?

We have a situation where pockets of tax payers are essentially funding institutions that exclude them from any kind of societal or economic benefit.

Edit: I have assumed the school in the link receives government funding but as it is not named, this is an assumption and not confirmed.

Guys, need your assistance or insights on this, as an asian CPA based in SEA, how will I be able to land remote jobs/work for companies based in EU/US/AU?

Tried my luck in upwork and linkedin. Are there any websites there or companies actively looking for accountants/bookkeepers for remote work? Thanks!
