Well Mr Abbott? What are you going to do now?

[grumpy*cat*rocks]

I saw this posted on my Facebook page. So much for his promise to stop the boats. Seems like we might have a few more landing on our shores now.

SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES: There could be an influx of asylum seekers in the wake of Australia’s spying scandal.

A senior Indonesian immigration official has apparently told local media he will no longer take measures to stop asylum seekers trying to reach our waters.

We’ll bring you full political coverage tonight in our evening bulletin on Channel 9.

Noone cares how that will affect Aust. farmers?

NZ already exports beef to Indonesia, and without the cruelty.

So it's the Aussies that are cruel to the cattle, not the Indonesian abbatoirs?

Both.  NZ does not export live cattle, to my knowledge.

i thought we already stopped exporting beef to the indos because of their cruelty/tortue/hala?

They are considering replacing Aust meat imports with NZ meat..in addition to what they get from there already.

Has Aust. said to the Indonesians 'Do what we want you to do or we will cut off your Aid'?

With the implied hatred towards Indonesia, it sounds like a few in here would love to burn the Indonesian flag.... if they knew what it looked like.

With the open hatred shown here for Mr Abbott, I'm surprised Labbies aren't out burning effigies of him in public...but then they'd have to  tear themselves away from their computers ...

It's like a silly hit and giggle tennis match.  A charade to appease their respective populations, it will all die down soon and both countries will carry on as before.

Thry are burning effigies of Abbott in Indonesia.

Tear themselves away from the computer..ha.. written by someone who posts very frequently throughout the day even when they are at work.

Not all people who disapprove of the PM of Aust are Labor supporter either.

"Australia successfully exports meat to over 100 countries around the world including the United States, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the European Union, the Middle East region and China, and has done so for many years.
