The Abbott Government says it will take 12,000 extra Syrian refugees.
Tony Abbott says they will be drawn particularly from “persecuted minorities” - his code for Christians.
Yet this is a policy that does not dare speak its name. Asked a hostile question by Paul Bongiorno at the press conference about this supposed bigotry, Abbott flinched and said some Muslim groups could be considered “persecuted minorities”, too.
