individual, "backed by the cries of the do-gooder brigade"

The cloak of 'do-gooder' is a convenient cover for:

- an industry that is making meg bucks out of the government. It is only taxpayers' money after all; and

- the culturally cringing Left, many of whom are rule-breakers in the sociological sense or have been unsuccessful in life, and as a result have a sizeable chip on their shoulders against society.

The traditional Lefties would be rolling in their graves at the self-serving BS being spruiked as 'Left' ideology. But then there were always crack-pots and opportunists around, even in their time.

It would be interesting to know how many who challenge the policy of the government that has just been elected (and resoundingly elected at that!) are directly or indirectly swinging from the government's teats and have been for years.

Should read, "- an industry that is making MEGA bucks out of the government. It is only taxpayers' money after all"

individual,

".....I merely retorted with exposing your hypocrisy which constantly evolves around weak attempts to ridicule others yet never once offering a solution."

This is a thread about Morrison seeking to censor reports of boat arrivals.

I commented that I consider that hypocrisy -considering his behaviour in Opposition.

Nothing disingenuous or hypocritical about that.

SM,

"....It is time for adults to clean up your mess."

That is doubly funny coming from the kiddy who likes to change posters names - coz he thinks it's vewy, vewy clever.

They are not "fixing" anything.

They are just as stymied as was Labor.

What they are (not-so) sneakily trying to do is suppress reporting of irregular boat arrivals.....

...to make themselves appear "successful".

Sounds a bit cheaty and underhand to me.

No doubt you approve of such behaviour.

Paul you will in time be forced to confront a truth.
Most Australians could not care less about your pain and suffering claim for boat people.
We just do not want them here, further any government not trusted to stop them, will never become government.ever.
I see however some truths coming home to roost on Tony,s shoulders, he will in time stop the boats, bank on it.
But any honest observer will know he already has a bloody nose for his return the boats policy.
It is at best pure red neck silliness, and unneeded, he has begun in the right way by his 48 hour turn around.
But harmed his own image with the attempt to hide his actions and the arrivals.
Yes many will be far less than pleased but take this on board *few Australians think these people are truely refugees or are truely in danger*

Foxy,

The only reason you could have for being surprised would be if you slept through the months prior to the election.

It was made clear that climate commission would be abolished, the NBN restructured, and that certain public servants had lost the confidence of the Coalition.

Parrot,

I do it to annoy you, and it is obviously working by your childish response. Comparing the coalition to the disaster that was labor, then definitely the adults are taking over.

If the coalition's plans are not working, then why is the number of boat arrivals already 1/3rd of what it was under Labor?

The new changes for boat asylum seekers, with most already implemented will be:
-they will never get permanent residence,
-can not bring in their relatives nor leave the country,
-face being sent to Nauru or PNG (with vastly increased capacity) within 48hrs,
-risk having their boats stopped and spending time in detention in Indonesia, and
-have limited access to appeal the rejection of their asylum claims,

Etc
