  • So how do you feel now that the sensationalism has died down and the facts are known ?

    The ship was not in Moreton Bay. Why did you say it was ?

    Oil spills are over-sensationalised. Bob Brown is a sincere bullshitter. The Greens are a dangerous bunch of scaremongers whipping up nonsense with gay abandon for their shallow-thinking followers.

  • 230 tonnes of fuel oil

    30 tonnes of other fuel

    620 tonnes ammonium nitrate

    Is the official report given now for the amount of the spill. Swire Shipping will be be find only $1.5 million for the disaster. Only a dozen or so workers with rakes and shovels are cleaning. They have machines that could have stopped it from washing up but they didn't bother. What happened here?

  • also if the population leaving india are skilled this is brain drain and bad for india.

  • It could also have a negative effect as india loses skills

  • Cronulla, I disagree with you there.Australia needs a small increase in its population. Its because Australia has no people that we cant fund major infrastructure like heavy rail.

  • I agree im just saying the 200 000 a year or whatever. The students who end up staying here,etc. is too many and too fast.

    Like if we pretend for instance our only immigrants are indians.

    Indian is overpopulated with a billion people .

    You take a million people out of india and bring them to australia that will have a huge effect on australia's resources and will have little effect as therre will still be 999 million people there.

  • WE NEED POPULATION POLICY.

    IMMIGRATION POLICY.

    More immigrants. A larger Aussie population means more shipments required to service residents of Australia. More ships coming to Australia means inevitably more chance of oil spills.

    Here is another example of over population contributing to environment damage.

  • I agree when do we stop .

    How far is our population going to go?

    I dont give rats arse who comes here im not racist just a realist.

    20 million people and we have desalination plants being built because we are worried about running out of water.

    While we export 60 % of what we grow.

    Some get rich while we pay more for our drinking water that we have to be carefull with.

    Farmers rape the land and we pay for it.

  • dun dun dun! Are you retarded? just because Australia's education system is shit doesn't mean you can be so stupid. Please explain how people coming from war-torn countries seeking refuge can cause an incompetent captain sailing into a storm and knocking chemical containers off the ship and rupturing his fuel tank can be related? Are you going to tell people to not have children because inevitably that will lead to the entire worlds resources to be used.... sigh
