The Australia First Party has come up with its own win-win solution for raising funds for the homeless and awareness about the plight of boat people this National Homeless Persons Week.

Under Mission Australia's Winter Sleepout banner, a goon squad of AFP members camped outside the Virginia Palms Hotel in the Brisbane suburb of Boondall.

The choice of campsite was influenced by the 80 women and children seeking asylum being put up in the hotel instead of Christmas Island.

Mission Australia become incandescent with outrage when it learned AFP was subverting its Winter Sleepout. It demanded an immediate end to fund-raising activities as it considered the political party pushed "hateful and divisive views".

The AFP's Jane Mengler offered to return funds collected during the sleepout.

I am not Jane Mengler. I did not 'offer to return funds'. Mission Australia threatened legal action and advised that they were terminating my registration as of Monday morning. I advised them that I registered on the Friday and asked if they wanted any funds that had been collected during the registration period. They have not replied.
