[/QUOTE] Race relations in Australia have deteriorated so badly that some community leaders fear violence will erupt in a political vacuum where the new government, elected with a bare majority, must rely on the support of parties that have fomented the discord.

The potential for violence after a bitter election campaign, which featured calls for a ban on Muslim immigration, is palpable for people like Afghan-born Muhammad Taqi Haidari.

Haidari, from Afghanistan's Shi'ite Muslim Hazara minority, no longer tells people his name is Muhammad, preferring to use Taqi.

"When there is a problem like in Paris and now in Nice they hear the name Muhammad. They include me as one of those Muhammads," Haidari, who lives in Sydney's less affluent western suburbs, told Reuters.

It's hard to be on the run, many countries can not cope with refugee reception, Sweden is no exception.

The woman who started the One Nation party?

I'm not so sure. She's said a lot of questionable things.

For example:

"We're bringing in people from South Africa at the moment. There's a huge amount coming into Australia, who have diseases; they've got AIDS," Ms Hanson told AAP.

"They are of no benefit to this country whatsoever; they'll never be able to work."

I've seen this flat-out contradicted recently, when I saw a man plainly of African descent in an Australian Army uniform at Blamey Barracks.
