Plibervola Outbreak :)

[lightningdance]

Got a good laugh out of this one, he sure nailed her. Poor Bill had to try to cobble up some kind of response that didn't make him look like the empty showbag his comrades know he is.

Rowan Deans nails the posturing of  Plibersek:

Authorities within the Australian Labor Party were scrambling this week to try to contain an outbreak of the deadly Pliberbola virus, with frantic calls for the exposed leadership of Bill Shorten to be immediately quarantined…

The Pliberbola crisis came after Mr Shorten recklessly wandered into the national security debate with no protection against the extreme risk of being infected by a deadly dose of bipartisanship, caused by getting too close to Tony Abbott.

“Pliberbola is the most virulent strain of undergraduate socialism the world has ever seen,” said a spokesman for Mr Shorten…

The virus is believed to have mutated in the 1970s in the Democratic Republic of Marrickville in a freakish contact between batty undergraduates and hard-core Marxist union enforcers, or apes, which in turn infected the gibbering idealists of the Greens.

How the virus crossed the species barrier to infect normal, sane, rational human beings is not known, although the first identifiable case has long been rumoured to be a large man with a booming voice known only as Gough.

So does Abbotts fear mongering, stirring up hatred.

I wonder why it is only the left posters on here who continuously call out "hate" "fear mongering"  blaming PM Abbott for all their bias?

The only ones using the "hate" endlessly  is you and your fellow travellers.

Plibersek has now been exposed for the blatant politicking of ebola, she is privvy to all the top level meetings and yet she still can't help herself from the fear and scare campaigns she is so well known for.

Please try to respond with out using the "hate" word, try to keep it civil and address the topic if you can.

I don't think I really want to know what that must feel like  😄 😄

Nuture or nature? My mother wouldn't allow us to use the word hate.

Making it all about "hate" again. Do you ever wonder why it's always you and your ilk who continuously use hate in your posts.

If you could address the topic please. The topic being Plibersek making political mileage out of a human catstrophe.

Ebola: Labor renews calls for health workers to be sent to west Africa

Tanya Plibersek says Australia would be in ‘big trouble’ if it waited for virus to spread to Asia Pacific before offering help

The opposition’s deputy leader and foreign affairs spokeswoman, Tanya Plibersek, reaffirmed her calls for the government to overcome “impediments” and send health workers to west Africa to help contain the outbreak, which had killed more than 4,500 people.

“The best way that we can protect Australia and protect Australians is to help stop Ebola in west Africa,” she told the ABC’s Insiders program on Sunday.

The topic is Ebola crisis. It is bigger than any comments about Aust MP 's from Aust media outlets . The scare campaign re Tanya Plibersek is a myth. Repeating it isn't going to make it true.

Are the UN and WHO scaremongering? Tanya Pilbersek is supporting their call for more funds and personnel to be sent organised by other countries Govt.
There are not enough individual volunteer aide workers, they need many more people in West Africa working to halt the spread of the ebola virus

[lightningdance]

The government is NOT barring aid workers going to Africa. Please point out to me where they are doing that?

[lightningdance]

Plibersek and Labor’s health spokesman, Catherine King, wrote to the government last week urging it to make immediate arrangements to “deploy Australian Medical Assistance Teams (Ausmat) or similar to west Africa” and “support other specialist Australian personnel (such as doctors and nurses) who are willing and able to assist in preventing the spread of Ebola in west Africa”.

Ausmat are rapid-response health teams that include doctors, nurses, paramedics, firefighters and allied health staff.

Labor’s letter said the government should “negotiate with our international partner countries to ensure appropriate standby and evacuation management arrangements for any Australian personnel”.

In reply, Dutton and the foreign affairs minister, Julie Bishop, wrote that Labor was showing “reckless disregard” for the safety of health workers by ignoring clear advice from foreign affairs, health and defence experts about the lack of credible evacuation arrangements.

Plibersek has been privvy to ALL high level meetings but she continuously ignores all the expert advice, scare mongers and plays politics.

I think we can all see what her agenda is.

"her agenda" - that would be for Australia to play it's part in west Africa rather than wait till it gets worse and comes closer to our region.

For goodness sake, I never said that. If you weren't focused only on the Plibersek myth you might have a wider understanding of the issue... stopping the spread of Ebola.

Individual aid workers (voluntering their own time, working without income) there aren't enough of them.

I said Govt organised workers ( e.g. medical staff volunteer for a specificed amound of time & are paid while oseas).. that is what the UN is asking for... and lots of them..

Of course, all measures should be taken to contain it in West Africa, but if it reaches Australia, it will not be too late, we will deal with it as we have dealt with AIDS, and all other infectious diseases in the past.

It is spreading fast in parts of Africa mainly because of the cultural customs and because the knowledge and equipment was not available at first.  But the main reason is that the West ignored it for 38 years because no white person was affected.

If it spreads to Australia, it could have already spread to UK, Canada, any number of EU countries.

It makes sense to contain it in West Africa NOW and take action (which the UN is doing, if they get enough funds and personnel from other countries) to control it there.
