Look out! Lester1 has just had an 'ABBOTTGASM.'

hilarous how the abbottphobia filled abc made him punching the air headlines while totally ignoring Shortens threat to end a woman's career for telling the truth about union money being used for prostitutes. the sooner the funding is taken from this jokers the better.

Blow it out yer ear, Lester1.

Shadow Minister is the biggest rightie blowhard and propagandist on this forum - who squeals to high heaven if he's challenged in any way, shape or form.

"The PM is a diplomatic genius; he has handled all situations very well indeed, and he has the respect of the world."

Lol!...Lol!...Lol!...

The most hopeless PM ever...has managed to turn an election win into a huge pile of horse manure in record time.

Gee Willakers - I hope he keeps his promise and pulls the trigger for a Double Dissolution (As if!)

"Operation Sovereign Borders is working. The boats are stopping and this is saving lives, saving the Budget $2.5 billion over the next four years – around $50 million a month.

Under Labor’s watch, 190 boats arrived in the equivalent six month period last year."

Then there is the re establishment of the live cattle trade, and relations with Indonesia.

More achievements than Labor managed in 6 years.

Rudd and Juliar were the most incompetent PMs in Australian history.

SM,

"...That the area chosen for dumping of the dredgings contains no actual reef for miles and consists of sand bed with sea grass...."

Show me a rightie blowhard who has dollar signs painted on his rose coloured glasses - and I'll show you a fella who has little environmental expertise.

Dumping dredgings or building any edifice close to shore has implications for altering sea currents and silting up corridors.

But of course, we don't have to worry about that - apparently the actual reef is "miles away".

Nice to see you are such an expert Poirot.

Yes the reef is miles away, about 35 nautical miles away, [if you know the difference] actually.

I could introduce you to thousands of tourists I & my staff took out to the reef in the area, who are well aware of how far out it is, to their considerable discomfort. It is far enough for a very large number of them to have become very seasick while covering that distance.

As I mentioned somewhere else, the tidal currant runs parallel to the coast, not to & from the coast. The wind of the prevailing south east trade wind blows against the flood tide generating quite a sea, in quite mild conditions. The soil will fall out of the water in this area, as does the millions of cubic feet of soil in flood runoff.

I won’t wast my time further explaining why this soil will not get near the reef, as I know you are incapable of believing anything not told you by a lefty.
