Why must he quit?  Because he made a statement last week based on information supplied to him that at that time wasnt correct.  A matter which he has since corrected?

Or are you hoping that if he quits its easier for people to mount a case to dismantle the current arrangements?

In his first press conference last Tuesday following the killing of Reza Berati on Manus Island, Morrison saw in Berati’s death — which, he acknowledged, was a tragedy — an opportunity to criticise asylum seekers. Berati had “put himself at risk” by leaving the detention centre, Morrison explained:

    “[T]his was a very dangerous situation where people decided to protest in a very violent way and to take themselves outside the centre and place themselves at great risk. In those situations our security people need to undertake the tasks that they need to undertake to restore the facility to a place of safety, and equally those who are maintaining the safety of the security environment outside the centre need to use their powers and various accoutrements that they have available to them in order to restore in the way that is provided for under PNG law.”

For Morrison, the death of Berati was a salutary lesson, a sort of Aesop’s Fable for detainees — don’t leave the centre or you’ll be dealt with “in the way that is provided for under PNG law”.

But the story began unravelling within hours. At a second media conference late on Tuesday afternoon, he admitted under questioning from journalists — not in his opening statement — that Berati might not have been killed outside the detention centre, saying “where physically this took place based on the information I have received this afternoon, that is a matter where there are some conflicting reports”.

    Journalist: What are the conflicting reports?

    Morrison: Well, the reports are conflicting on where the individual might have been at the time.

    Journalist: Either inside or outside.

    Morrison: I am saying that there are conflicting reports …

you don't think very well. Do you want one death or a thousand. It's pretty simple.

You don't read very well, do you.

Let's just kill people instead of do what we are obligated to do , by conventions we sign up to.  Typical crazy.

But haven't you and the other dolts been whining about Scott Morrison keeping you out of the loop Ozzie? You want the details as quickly as possible, and now you want it 100% accurate as well. Either you want accuracy or speed......which is it to be dipstick, if you want the news as it comes in then you have to be content with what is communicated at the time, accurate or not?

Now can you stop your whinging like that old goat Milne and Fishmouth Bowen, and just wait for information to be verified before spouting your fake and illogical concern.

Aquascoot and Sparky say you're guilty of murder, Alevine. How do you plead?

If alvine supports SHY's call for a royal commision into this one death. This would cost $30,000,000.
enough to save maybe 30,000 african kids.
If alvine agrees with SHY, he supports numbers of deaths equal to genocide.
Shame, greenies, shame
