On the one hand, it's a stark reminder of quite how grim life can be for Asylum seekers. But on the other it's a reminder that people will look out for each other - even people that the white, educated, middle-class person inside us would associate xenophobic The Sun sound-bites. It's good to be reminded of the creeping class condescension.

I suspect that will depend on which way the vote goes in an up and coming by-election. If Murdoch's stooge wins we won't be that many incremental steps away from being bar coded at birth. “Let’s just hope that the CPS doesn’t prosecute the other estate residents for aiding and abetting so-called «criminals».”
