Cods , this is because Abbott has stopped the boats and the drownings at sea.

We need to get rid of these fringe dweller loonies.

of course... they like seeing people drown dont they? better than dwarf throwing for their entertainment..

they are certainly not thrilled about the boats stopping.

cant think of any other reason to be opposed.. can you? Angry

It was the two conservative parties, the Libs and Greens, wanted BOATS! to keep coming, great election issue for both. We could long ago have stopped the boats with the Malaysian Processing Centre. Damn both Libs and Greens to hell!

Er no actually, it's because Australia is breaking both international maritime law, and the refugee convention we are a signatory to.

Before you get all defensive, this would have happened under the previous government too.

Aust is just protecting it's borders and maintaining its own sovereignty.

We should just opt out of the obsolete reffo convention.

Anyway the UN would have to get a UNSC Resolution to put sanctions on us and it has Buckley's.

Its about an australian newspaper calling for sanctions on its own country because of its political bias.

I think the UN conv.. goes back to 1952.. it old old old was meant for different time...in those days most were genuine REFUGEES... they were not called asylum seekers..they were genuinely in fear of their lives..

now they have stolen the real meaning of refugee.. its gone its history....[ almost] now its hard to tell whos real and whos not real.. we are not game to point the finger we risk getting accused of all sorts of nasty thing...

even protecting our own borders is a crime..

lets play GET AUSTRALIA>.

.it will take the UNs mind off SYRIA....EGYPT..the GAZA...

yeah lets prove the UN does some real work....

whats that??? nobody has drowned in the last month in the Indian Ocean...ooooooooo that wont do...

No.

It's because of political incompetence and contravening laws and conventions that we were signatories to.

And which Abbott has no right or mandate to break or defy.

The political bias here is ALL on the side of the Right.

Anything to suggest those coming here are NOT genuine refugees Cods?

Well, I fail to see how unlawful intrusions into INDOENSIA'S waters by the Australian Navy is protecting our borders. It's clearly a breach of international maritime law.

No one complained when the navy was being used as a taxi service picking up illegals from indo beaches.

But now want sanctions.

The ... gaurdian (sic) ... has called for un sanctions to be placed on Australia.

SORRY to disappoint, but it HASN'T done ANYTHING of the SORT

The article http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/its-time-for-un-sanctions-o... was written by freelance journalist ...

Quote:

Loewenstein has written for The Guardian, Haaretz, The Washington Post, Sydney Morning Herald, The Australian, Sydney's Sun-Herald, The Bulletin, ZNet, The Big Issue, Crikey, CounterPunch and the online magazine newmatilda.com among others. He appears regularly on radio, in public and at universities discussing current affairs and politics

It was NOT an Australian Guardian editorial

Among Australian online print media, it is ONLY
the Guardian and the ABC
that will print BOTH sides of an argument in opinion sections

Among Australian online print media, it is ONLY

the Guardian and the ABC

that do not charge for unlimited content

( ... it's ACTUALLY, a VERY good article)

Another dose of codswallop.

Yes, case got taken to the High Court by some refugee advocate. Full marks so far, codswallop!

Legislation was drawn up to overcome the HC’s objection—Libs and Greens made it known they would oppose it—obviously, as I said, little dense codswallop, they were happy for people to drown if it kept BOATS! alive as an election issue.
