But many people fleeing "poverty" are indeed country shoppers... many from Sri Lanka for example are exactly that.

Sure.

Not every asylum seeker is a genuine refugee.

One would be a fool to suggest such a thing.

Yet the vast majority from Sri Lanka are country shoppers.

Without telling me that "google is your friend", can you substantiate that claim?

Labor foreign affairs minister Bob Carr.

That's it?

Let me get this straight. The vast majority from Sri Lanka are country shoppers because Bob Carr says so?

You should try the stand up circuit, aquaboy.

Tom Waterhouse would give me a market on who is more knowledgable about sri lankan boat people.

Bob Carr who has access to every aspect of foreign affairs intelligence ....$1.01

Gweg, union hack and keyboard warrior...$100 to 1.

I'll take Bobb over you gweg, dont shoot the messenger.

Stay focused, aquaboy.

I'm not saying that I have knowledge about Sri Lankan boat people.

I'm asking you to substantiate a claim (which you have failed to do).

Nice try at deflection though.

thats fairly obvious

More deflection. What a surprise.

Tell us about your knowledge.

Who keeps you up to date? Bob ... what's his name?

Come on aqua, don't be shy.

Why are you afraid of google ?

Afraid it might not support your claims and that the poster won't re type what was already on google ?

When someone makes a claim, it's up to them to substantiate that claim.

That's how adults debate.

Not if its general knowledge and readily available. Maybe children debate like you running around calling people trolls when they get sour grapes.

On your bike troll.

"general knowledge" "google is your friend"

Wonderful stuff.

You must have the rule book right in front of you.

Standing by for "queue jumpers", "we will say who comes to this country". 3,2,1 ...

Awe here have one of my tissues gweg.

There is no evidence of the existence of a muslim,mohammed,or quran until 60 years after mohammed was supposed to have died. Grin

Posting on islam just encourages them and is a waste of time.

Yet factual statistics indicate around 80% end up welfare recipients. That is general knowledge if you care to look up the government statistics. Not that you would gweg.

Yes, since following your lead I've (ironically) seen the light.

All asylum seekers are queue-jumping welfare cheats who would slit your mother's throat given half the chance.

Who knew that so much wisdom could be extracted from one's arse? Undecided
