Wheres my passport............
IA - today
An economy being wrecked; warlike skirmishes with Indonesia nearing; Niugini likely to expel our cruel colonising tormentors of children from their shores; a U.S. Secretary of State denouncing our global warming policy; the Iranians condemning our record on human rights; a High Commissioner, Labor and competent, sacked and replaced by a fatuous tory suspected of war crimes; a Health Minister assisting the chocolate industry and misleading parliament; Australia derided world-wide and a thousand more days of this to come.

I can name a couple
1. Stopping the huge influx of unlawful, uninvited entrants to Australia.
2. Stopping of handouts to unprofitable companies
3. Curtailing the union corruption.
That is a starter, no doubt there is more to come in the decades to come

sounds hollow at this point in time. the damage outweighs any percieved improvement 10 to 1 .

surely you jest
The figures of boat arrivals in comparison to our total refugee intake and the number of illegal arrivals by air are occasionally trotted out by the MSM; they routinely demonstrate that arrivals by boat are approximately equal to arrivals by air and combined these are a small percentage of total immigration figures.
Boat arrivals make up 1.3% of our total immigration intake each year.
and your 3rd point - we will have to wait and see if the 100million plus is a worthwhile expenditure.
