Pants on Fire - Scott Morrison

[donnashuggy]

That is the verdict from PolitiFact

Morrison’s proposition is that boat buying will save lives and cost Australian taxpayers less. It will do neither if it proves ineffective. There is no evidence it will work.

I can't get past this bit.....

It used to be we’d stop the boats. Now, we’re going to buy them.

no, now abbrott's sayin' that they may not buy a single boat, a flamin' con they're tryin' to pull on the australian folks

i havent seen a boat reported in the last week , something like that wouldn't go unreported would it ?

No, I always rely on the Australian Press to report everything newsworthy.

 does that mean there haven't been any ?

[lakeland27]

he will be forgiven , so he believes. charismatics believe they can do anything and say 'sorry' afterward.  i have a less rosy view.. he may feel vindicated afterward when repenting, but a lot of us wont forget him for what he has done.

he'll cartainly scare away more than his Lara Bingle campaign attracted to the country.

I havent read of any boats in the last week.

I wonder if poitifact will do a fact check on News Limited? They could rename the tele Pants on Fire.

If Abbott gets in then people in this country are dumber than I thought.
