Pied piper I hope you never regret giving your e mail out, maybe a personal message tab would be good?
And 100 million gee no please never it would kill my country.
I have had Kiwi Friends and way back before we spoke of conservation have watched them after seeing the real bush, dry and no place for people other than a few .
Water we have little, all are facts we can not feed such a number never .
Quality? no I fail to see the point, we should keep criminals out and just maybe others but we should get our intake from overseas camps not door knocker.
Yes no surprise at all some, most, come for economic reasons.
What ever the reason I do not think we should forget we may well not be welcome as migrants in some country's some come from

“Pied piper I hope you never regret giving your e mail out, maybe a personal message tab would be good?”

What is a personal message tab? Don’t tell me OLO has private mail? Hey you hang on to it Belly and if you are ever down my way you should drop on in.

“And 100 million gee no please never it would kill my country.”

Nah she’ll be right mate. I thought it was predicted for Oz after WWII anyways.

“I have had Kiwi Friends and way back before we spoke of conservation have watched them after seeing the real bush, dry and no place for people other than a few .”

My children learnt to swim in the middle of a desert in a city of millions. C’mon if the believers of a single god over there could do it I think we could too.

As for quality it seems the perception in white-Aussie is that the whiter you are the better. This might not necessarily be racist but it may be fear. I guess the paler countries have similar cultures and feel safer?

Funny aye – I think the scariest people in the world as a group would be the yanks.

But how someone else or another ocuntry acts is never going to be an okay excuse for ones own behavour, from childhood to pollyhood.

Interesting.

Horus

Morgan deconstructed….

Mwa mmmhhua muuhuwaaaaaah aaaaaaaaaaaa HAAAAAAAA hahahahahahahahah!!

That was entertaining!!

More fact-free drivel from Horus, more "reasonable debate" from Ludwig, more highly selective quotation from Cornflower. Same old, same old from the selfish, paranoid and/or bigoted approach to the asylum seeker problem.

Ludwig: << I’ll have to give up on you >>

I gave up on you a long time ago, old chap - but I suppose it's a positive thing that you've now come out of the closet. And you wonder why I don't take your specious and paranoid "arguments" seriously?

You can tell alot about someone from the company they keep, and you're in great company, old son.

“I gave up on you a long time ago, old chap.”

Ohhh. Er um… so why have you kept on responding to my comments then Ceej?

What exactly is your definition of giving up on someone??

That’s right, when you get angry, resort to the stupid stuff – “selfish, paranoid and/or bigoted”, blah blaaaah blurrr bloowuurr....oh how tedious.

Oh well, I suppose we can declare the long-time-good, then a little damaged, and then decidedly tetchy relationship between Luddie and Ceejie to now be completely dead in the water.

Oh well, that’s unfortunate. But so be it. Certainly no skin off my nose!
