If Australia can remove people from its jurisdiction whenever a court decision becomes politically inconvenient, then the very idea of the rule of law is weakened. The High Court has already ruled that indefinite detention is unlawful. Offshore exile, purchased with billions, is little more than an attempt to sidestep that ruling while pretending compliance.
