Dear Individual,

Good to see that you do finally
know your limitations and recognise them.

"So ladies, now & until Abbotts new policies are digested & understood by boat people & boat suppliers alike,..."

Pray tell, Hasbeen, can you detail the policies to which your refer?

We've had the slogans - and the attempted censorship.

I don't believe they've actually got as far as the policies....not really (if you know what I mean:)...apart from the grandiose title of "Operation Sovereign Pretense".

Poirot - Quote "I think it's time I leave this thread because I only have swear words available to use at this stage." from page 33

To have to resort to profanity implies you have no real counter argument or could it be you know it to be true and just cannot accept something that you disagree with.

I assume that means the white flag of surrender.

Philip S,

"To have to resort to profanity implies you have no real counter argument or could it be you know it to be true and just cannot accept something that you disagree with.

I assume that means the white flag of surrender."

Neat theory...except...I didn't say that.

I was merely quoting Suse.

Bye bye.

Foxy,
this should warm your heart, it's all Australia's fault.

One survivor told ABC News he had lost his whole family because Australian rescuers did not come when they phoned a day before the sinking.

"We called the Australian Government for 24 hours, they were telling us 'we're coming, we're coming, we're coming,' and they didn't come," he said.

"We sent them the position on the GPS, exactly where are we, and we drowned and nobody came.

"This is because of the Australian Government. I want them to know that."

Foxy, "Another suppository of wisdom from a poster who probably considers a pot belly as a status symbol and whose only flair would be in his nostrils"

That from the poster who lectures others on how to conduct a debate and whinged that the previous Opposition was 'negative". LOL

It is going to be a very, very, long six years for some.

Waiting for the howls of outrage as the government (necessarily) reviews government services and grants to ensure relevance and worth, and that value for money is being obtained. Most of the pre-emptive strikes against the democratically elected new government would be coming from individuals and groups who have been swinging from the government's teats for years. The sound of the elastic 'SNAP' as the teats are removed from undeserving mouths, will be priceless!
