Why do the lefties want more boats and open borders

The leftties are obsessed with boats and they  want Australia to be an open border that is over run with boats and ILLEGAL imigrants it seems as seen on here on a  daily basis from the left and far left leaning people. 

 

WHY is that...

 

Why do the left want more and more of these people invading our country? 

 

Why do the lefties want more and more boats coming?

 

Why do the left want more people drowing at sea?

 

Seems rather odd to me that the left have so little regard for our borders and laws and want open flood gates on boat people invading our country.

 

WHY?

Why do the lefties want more boats and open borders

Mind you, if memory serves, Malcolm was PM when the Vietnamese boats started arriving, and if memory serves, he didn't put out the welcome mat.

Why do the lefties want more boats and open borders

 

  • "I believe there is a special obligation on Australians who have come or whose parents have come here in the post-war years, to work for and maintain that Australia, because that is the Australia they came to, that is the Australia that received them so warmly and that is the Australia to which they have already contributed so much in so many different ways."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "Most asylum seekers do get permanent visas, so the earlier they receive the appropriate help, the faster they will become part of the community. They'll get jobs and start paying taxes too. They will see Australia as a nation with a sense of care and concern. That's so important for a cohesive society. It helps build a sense of belonging. And in terms of common decency, it's what should be happening... For God's sake, this is Australia, people should be treated with decency and humanity."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "If a need for a sense of independence is important for Australia, there is a need to our politicians in Canberra to start to kill the view that we are a racist nation. At heart, I don't believe the great majority of Australians are racist, but the government has behaved as though we are. The government has really demeaned us, not just the government, but the government and the opposition, the political process. Both sides of the equation have really done Australia an enormous disservice."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "Many who fled from Eastern Europe or the Soviet Union in the postwar years would have had to pay people for some part of their journey which ultimately led them to Australia. What has been forgotten in this debate is that desperate people will go to any lengths to get to a country that they believe to be safe and that they know will give them, and more particularly their children, a future."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "At the moment people get on boats because they flee terror at home and believe the many years' long wait in UNHCR camps is not a valid option, especially if they have children in their care. After the Vietnam War, Australia took a larger humanitarian intake than at any other period in our history. The Australian community accepted that. They were told why we needed to do it, and why it was the only ethical decent policy that a wealthy advanced country should adopt."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "A strong multicultural Australia that draws strength from its diversity, that debates real issues of importance to ourselves and to common humanity, has contributed so much in the past. It must do so again. The pettiness and meanness of the current debates about asylum seekers and indeed on other issues that are dealt with on a totally partisan basis must be put aside. There is a special obligation on our political leaders to lift themselves off the bottom and take the debate in a different direction - based on fact not hyperbole, based on humanitarian rather than punitive considerations; to rejoin the bipartisanship that will be needed to make meaningful contributions to such complex global challenges. We should also ask ourselves what we as Australians need to do so that politicians will learn to appeal to the best of our natures and cease playing politics with the lives of vulnerable people."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "There are alternative policies available to Australian governments. They have not taken them because neither party is willing to lift substantially the humanitarian intake... Meanwhile our political leaders continue to demean Australia, to portray us as a narrow, wealthy, selfish community by debates they conduct between themselves. Thinking that this is only an Australian matter of no consequence to anyone else is false. It certainly affects the way other countries view Australia. Our policies set Australia apart from our own region and apart from the world at large. The Australian people deserve much better. Hopefully, one day our politicians will treat the Australian community with respect, instead of the contempt they show with their judgement of Australians."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "The debate went on, playing politics with people's lives. To me, that is about as low as you can go."
    MALCOLM FRASER, on asylum seekers
  • "The asylum-seeker debate in Australia is demeaning and miserable. The politicians who participate in it have contempt for the Australian people. They believe, despite all evidence to the contrary, that if they appeal to the fearful and mean sides of our nature, they will win support. They are showing that they believe we won't know enough about the world to know that for the most part what they are saying is plainly false. Australia should not seek to avoid its obligations."

I imagine his daughter had a huge influence on his views, when I read what he says it gives me shivers, it's spot on!

He is and he proved it by backing the short dumpy one from the greens SH-Y   and it seems he is getting more and more left wing and mad as dementia  sets in.

 

 

Poor Paul K he must be feeling rejected by the fact Fraser is now  the pinup poster boy of the left.

 he's changed a lot now that he's not affiliated with a political party and is able to state his own personal views. I follow him on twitter and agree with a lot of what he says

I'm sure that other Australians go in a booth (providing privacy...for a reason) when they vote 

and as for the next Election...I haven't voted yet.
