@MrBumnut1234 if you believe that you believe the tooth fairy, the liberals have always been experts at bypassing the truth. At the end of the day were supposed to be encouraging ppl to come to this country not turn them away, as long as they go through the correct procedures whats the issue?

@raff23 No they didn't lmao...there were only 2 boat arrivals in the first year the Pacific Solution was implemented. That's both to Nauru and Australia, because after all, as you say, they all get shipped off to Nauru. Learn some politics mate.

@MrBumnut1234 the boats still kept coming, they were just shipped off to nauru, no difference to the malaysia solution with malaysia actually having more room than nauru ever will. This is just the liberal party trying to point score with ppl's lives by refusing to accept anything other than nauru which in the long term would never be the solution.
-
@raff23 Lol, he will re implementthe Pacific Solution, a policy that on average, only resulted in an average of three boats per year...he will stop the boats!
-
@raff23 I love seeing Sophie Mirrorbreaker in action! So true, if people actually looked at Australian Politics subjectively, they would see that the amount of blunders Abbott has made far outweighs the negatives of Labor.

tony abbott saying he will stop the boats is a blatent lie, why dont ppl bag him out for that? because he has done a great job deflecting the blame towards the labor government, ppl need to wake up and educate themselves a bit more about what is actually going on.

@MsSalemSaberhagen because john howard never lied in 11 years he was in government right? "interest rates will remain low if you vote my party back in" "there will be no GST in my time as PM", the children overboard lies and backflips. "we are the best friends that the australian working class has ever had" the list goes on, howard told more lies in 1 week than gillard has in a year, ppl in this country have short memories.

What a leech on democracy, wasting the parliament's time with childish behaviour.

"I withdraw" *Storms off*
She was stating a fact; it was not inappropriate!

So much for the "new paradigm". I've been listening for the last 2 weeks and have not heard one question actually answered by Gillard or Swan. Jenkins needs to enforce the rules in the spirit they were intended. His job would be much easier if he did. Either that or change the rules of question time so the oppositions can ask stooge questions to themselves like the government does.
