Stopping the boats

[tiger101]

Yet our new PM refuses to comment about the deaths at sea . Abbott now realising Government and foreign diplomacy is a lot harder than simplistic three-word slogans in Opposition.

ps. Once again it's not illegal to seek asylum. Desperate people will risk their lives and it's the people smugglers that are exploiting their plight for $$$. This is a global problem.

They are economic refugee's even Bob Carr admitted this. They are not being persecuted in Indonesia and majority of them aren't even from Indonesia.

1965 Labor policy's encouraged people to pay smugglers and risk their lives. Their policy's will never look good because whether you like it or not the majority of Australian public don't want people smugglers controlling our immigration. Currently Abbott is looking tough by standing up for our sovereignty and doing what he was voted in to do to and that is to stop the boats.

For the record I don't think the boats will ever be stopped. The ALP encouraged so many people to attempt to cross the water that it will now be near impossible to fully stop but if they can at least cut back the number of boat arrivals that would be a good result.

Agree will take a fair while to cut back on the boats thanks to the Labor party

I have to wonder how long the Liberal stooges will blame Labor?

Probably right up to the next election.

I'm starting to think this problem cannot be solved by an individual country no matter what they do,it requires a global effort....which we will never get,not as long as my ass points to the ground

As long as the grass is always greener somewhere else it's always going to happen. Especially when you look at the poo countries they come from.

Maybe Tony can invest in a few of these:

[Gigantor]

Again I'm talking pie in the sky stuff,but you will get no boats when people in those places have the required economic prosperity and where individual freedom and democracy is valued ,respected and followed

Tony the godsend will have everything fixed up soon don't worry

[🏅Dooks]

Alot of benefit of the doubt being thrown about here by many pretending in the past and present to hold governments accountable.

Please dont forget Mr Abbotts promise that "we WILL stop the boats"

Just a couple of Weeks into government and not only have hey not stopped the boats but there are deaths on their watches. Oh the Rudd government *insert  *

Personally the majority of the blame should be put on those who paid to risk their lives, but.....

Not that this will be addressed by the Liberal Australian Government, they only report the boats when they tell you you need to be told

[Judge Roughneck]

80 people die

Don't tell anyone

 No one really dies!

Well played tony 

[🏅Dooks]

Looks like contact with the Australian people (part 4 of 4 has) been well and truly broken, two weeks into government.



At this rate they may as well burn the rest of it by cup day.  . Tony's signature and all.

I would be putting the majority of the blame on the people smugglers who profit at the expense of people's lives.
