Lexi,

I seriously question your memory. Please mention one compromise that Labor has offered the coalition.

On Fair work - nothing,
Climate change - nothing,
Mining tax - nothing,
asylum seekers - nothing.

Labor has claimed to seek a negotiation, but has never put anything on the table.

There are only two solutions presently on the table, the Greens on shore processing or the coalition compromise, which could include the pacific solution.

So far the Pacific solution is the only tried and proven solution, and it can start very quickly.

We must know we can not know what came first the chicken or the egg.
Oh for sure something came before both and became both.
SM has dug deep in to a pot of nothingness, to produce nothing.
His list of Labors failures is unfounded gossip.
But it was not meant to be true, its purpose is to take the spotlight away from this.
Conservatives, side with the only party they dislike more than Labor, the Greens.
To say to the majority of voters *this is too good a political weapon, to fix the problem, and not be able to use it*

Dear SM,

Would you still be spouting the same old lines
if Malcolm Turnbull was the leader of your party.
I very much doubt it. And my memory is better
than yours obviously. However, this is not about
my having to prove anything to you about Labor.
This is about finding a new solution to the
asylum seeker problem and Rob Oakshott's
Private Bill is what's up for consideration.
Will Mr Abbott be able to either submit
a list of amendments to the bill or come up
with a better newer solution. I very much doubt it.
But here's his chance to prove me wrong.

Lexi,
I believe he can but, are you willing to acknowledge a coalition policy ? The situation re asylum seekers has changed so much in the past couple years that it'll take some serious & callous thinking. No room for fashionable compassion. It'll have to be realistic & affordable compassion. Also, are you willing to give the coalition as many terms as Labor had even if they just bumble along as Labor did ?

Dear Individual,

The Coalition has to firstly give me at least
one good reason as to why I should vote for them
under their current leadership. And so far they
haven't done so. I have to have more than just
"aspirations." They now have an opportunity to
negotiate a solution regarding the asylum seeker
issue with Rob Oakshott's Private Bill. We'll
see how that goes.

Lexi,
that makes two of us. However, with all the evidence at hand now from Labor's performance what makes you still support Labor then ? Aren't you a little hypocritical here ?
