everyone knows that the minute they get close to australian waters they damage their boat and sent off a distress signal .... they have been doing it for ages ... this is not news ....

they also know that by having that many people on board it is overloaded therefore likely to sink if tampered with ...

next .... how did howard stop the boats ..... oh thats right he didnt ..... and they also sank on his watch ....

Howard didn't "stop the boats" because there weren't any.  He and others hadn't yet bombed Afghanistan and Iraq.

Easy peasy back then to "protect our borders".

The PNG policy is really working isn't it?  More deaths and blood on their hands. Shocking.

 The joy at others misery is a bit of an eye opener. . they are hoping for more bodies at menzies house.

What a shocking thing to say. A true labor person, no comment beyond the pale

There's one thing we can look forward to is that the truly one eyed rusted on   labor haters will mercifully fade away & we will be spared the most appalling comments.
