donna, I could only read the little article, i don't have sound - I'm sure there will be a lot of denial and racism from most corners (not here of course). Maybe  the Prime Minister for Unemployment will call a Royal Commission into the whole sorry affair, or at the very least an independent investigation - I won't hold my breath though.

If you can make the time to listen it is worthwhile

i heard her speak on dateline. i don't expect much from either enquiry really, never hold an inquiry unless you already know the outcome.

TONY Abbott said his government won’t be succumbing to pressure or "moral blackmail", following Monday night’s violence on Manus Island.

"moral blackmail"? Strange term to be used by abbott when talking about the loss of anothers life? especially such a christian chap like himself. Maybe its just me?

Its absolutely disgusting, disgraceful and a blot on this country the way we treat people who are seeking asylum, it's filthy and it will take a long time for our reputation to recover - what a shameful mob we have become.
