“If the Government really does care about saving lives at sea, they wouldn’t tow this boat away from Christmas Island, they would let it land safely.”

Christmas Island Shire president Gordon Thomson has told HuffPost AU he was concerned about the seaworthiness of the boat and wanted to know whether it was given port clearance.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was asked about the boat arrival, specifically where crew and passengers would be taken, during a press conference in Darwin.

"As you know, we don't comment on operational matters," he told reporters. "I can't help you other than to say that we do not comment on operational matters. "

So turnbull plans to treat voters as stupid ... just like abbott tried.

That's not going to go down well for turnbull.

No doubt about it , drove right up the garden passage , I thought the Libs were supposed to be protecting our borders , not doing a very good job it seems . I blame shorten for destroying Abort.

Turnbull needs to go.

They know not to come by people smugglers. It's common knowledge what will happen.

They must be desperate.

Let them in and it will all start up again. And we all know what a mess that was. It's a hard world and hard decisions need to be made greggorry.

Ignore people fleeing persecution.

I'm alright, Jack.

You argue for gay marriage because it doesn't directly affect you. Refugees do not affect you either - why be concerned about something that doesn't affect you?

Much better. You're learning.

Why bother trying to help someone else? It doesn't affect you.

Nice Lutheran sentiments, OB. Keep it up.

1 boat big deal.

Liberal apologist prick! Grin

Bloody oath. That's a boatload of tinted country-shoppers held in detention indefinitely - over half a million dollars a year per person.

These apologists make me sick.

Best we run with Turnbull and look for a diplomatic solution, Aborts plan is clearly a failure.

Perhaps they were just going fishing? Cheesy

A "small wooden boat carrying 12 people".

Where does it say they got 100 metres from Christmas Island?
