Isn't funny how deep down you do-gooders on here want Australia to be the salvation of the world. You won't say it but you all believe that if they make it here you can stay. COME ON EVERYBODY. COME TO GOOD OLD AUS AND WE CAN SING AND DANCE AND WIGGLE IN THE SAND WITH NO CLOTHES ON, WEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Exactly. Only Mr Abbott can stop the boats.
Well Labor can't. No they can but they won't.
Dead right, Gillard could have stopped the boats years ago, but has chosen instead to attack Abbott in a vain attempt to score some political points at the expense of the illegal immigrants themselves.
Would that be by "Simply Picking up the Phone to Naru" teaspoon?
Well we have & its done bugger all
Oh we haven't towed any boats back?
I'll bet you $50 right now that by 2016 if Abbott's PM the sum total of returned boats is ZERO.
Did you listen to the Indonesian ambassador the other day or was that filtered out of your news prism of 2GB & the Tele?
Here's a link, bit hard to tow back when Indo doesn't recognize them, sure they'll take the boats & crew but what about the reffo's? The whole smacking purpose of the expensive & dangerous exercise?
http://www.smh.com.au/opinion/political-news/indonesia-rejects-abbott-tow-back-b... Quote:THE Indonesian government has confirmed that it would not accept the towing back of asylum seeker boats to its shores, sources say.
Or is it TPV's we need to introduce teaspoon?
I've shown you numerous times before their introduction only changed asylum seekers from men to Women & children complete with figures & graphs from the ABS, are you stupid or have dementia?
Don't bother I already know.
Still can't face raw, hard facts, eh? Simply reinstating offshore processing was never going to work and Abbott has consistently said as much. Labor needs to reintroduce the full suite of policies put in place by Howard, including offshore processing and TPVs. TPVs were extremely effective because they did not lead to permanent residence status and did not allow those who held this visa to take a holiday back home and then return to Australia to continue their claim for asylum. once you left, you could not return. Gillard has refused and must accept the blame for the resulting 40,000 people who have arrived on more than 500 boats since Labor won office. Gillard must also accept that it is her policies that are encouraging people to risk their lives and in some cases, die at sea. You simply can't run away from the truth - the Pacific Solution worked, Rudd made a colossal mistake in dismantling that policy and Gillard has succeeded only in making matters far worse under her Prime Ministership.
Yawn, you've ignored the fact I addressed everyone of Abbott's "Suite" of policies.
The Pacific Solution worked in its time, whilst Iraq was still at war, whilst the Tamils were still at war, granted the on going weeping sore of Afghanistan hasn't changed. But given 2 of the 3 largest groups of reffo's has.
Do you think it would still be working?
I'm smacking over you simpletons, Do you really believe all will be as it was in 2005 by electing Abbott, the world has changed & continues to do so.
It will NEVER be 2005 again & in 2016 when the debt level is as big or bigger than now are you still going to try the Its Gillards fault, of course you will or you'll sight debt to GDP pointing out how small a % it is compared to other western economies( without even blinking), because it a football game to you idiots.
bugger the country, my team should always win regardless.
Tony wont stop the boats
He won't tow them back
He may well introduce TPV's again seeing that the only thing he actually has control of, but will you ring your hands for the drowned women & children post Sept, no of course not, you'll revert back to "it's their fault".
