Individual,
There's not so many of them anymore, which is a bad sign when you think about it.
Let's face it, Iran and Afghanistan will never produce a Sidney Myer or Elizabeth Murdoch nor even a Bob Brown or Ian Rintoul, the only way to work toward a progressive, equal and equitable society is ethnocentrism and Nationalism. There's nothing wrong with these "do gooders",they have good hearts but if they were simply prevented by law from harming the nation they'd still be valued and needed and they'd still be able to devote themselves to helping the poor,the aged,the sick and the disabled.

You stop the boats by sending the passengers to Mannis island.

.....You stop the boats by sending the passengers to Mannis island.

Yep! It holds a few hundred, or, maybe six boats.

So what do we do with the other umpteen thousands doog?

Of cause your beloved Mr Rudd could have left a well proven system alone, but then that wouldn't be Mr Rudd, would it!

Dwelling on spilt milk will not solve anything. Malaysia would have solved the problem years ago, but the dogooder Abbott new best.
Move in to the year 2013 which is where we are, and access the currant situation. The New Guinea plan has loads of merit, there won't be many takers, these people are not that stupid, they are just que jumpers. There is 60,000 Vietnamese in Malaysia waiting to come to AU. The big attraction is AU, take that of the list and the goal post's move.
So all is good, and try not to worry it's not good for your health.

Interesting times. Rudd has a poor record in stopping the illegals from coming, as has Labor. They even have a poorer record in implementing any scheme.

Will the voters believe Rudd is fair dinkum and will the illegals believe him. The scheme will be tested.

I never thought Keating could win an election, but I was wrong.

Malaysia would have solved the problem years ago,
doog,
No it wouldn't on the contrary. You don't do much reading do you ? Or don't you get what you read ?
Unless you understand what this is all about you shouldn't state things like that.
