Striking level of incompetence though from Labor not to prepare. Now in a competent world, the Tweedledee and Tweedledum parties would have got together and worked out a policy months, years ago, since the original HC ruling was obvious legal nonsense. But my dream of basic competence is as unlikely as Afros waking up to Katy Perry.

Although I rarely, if ever, watch ABC television or read The Guardian, I have little need to do so, because articles regularly posted on TBV by their admirers keep me up to date on a daily basis. No names, no pack drill, but we all know who they are.

PT, it only took you 5 minutes for your response to my post, I threw the bait, and you came in spinner.

Same as all the other murderers who have served their short sentences except he doesn't have citizenship.

Dutton is clear, lock them up and bugger the High Court.

Dutton’s view of locking the worst of them up and let them rot in jail is what 95% of the population agree with.

Maybe 95% of people with autocratic populist views Bob. Sadly they are growing in number.

Majority appointed during the last 9 years of LNP govt.

So you sit around all day and watch what free to air commercial channels like 9 or 10 or 7 with their constant ads all day ? buy this insurance or that insurance, buy this burger or that makeup. I prefer to have the ABC on all day and use it like a radio, I just listen to the news bulletins, occasionally sit down to watch Hard Quiz, IQ, antiques roadshow, Midsomer murders. I rarely of ever turn the TV off, it feels weird if there is no sound on in the house all day so ABC does it politely and without a single fkn ad all day.

we have had a deplorable line up of PM's plastic. Do you want to bring back the god fearing, coal loving minister for everything? 

If we have in fact given Myanmar hundreds of millions in aid, you think it was totally selfless of us?

If the refugees were critics of the Myanmar military junta there is no way they could be sent back to probable torture or worse

Were short of workers in this county, all hard core criminals like these lot should be made to work in super secure, mega factories, making stuff. Secure Mega factories with good carbon footprints, thousands of inmates building and making things like car batteries, tools, appliances, wind turbines, solar panels etc etc etc, whatever we need made, get it done. Oz businesses could have contracts with these places where they place orders and the crims make the products. Those who don't know to do certain things are taught by professionals. Any inmate who doesn't want to work, then they can go be locked up in solitary, and fed two minute noodles daily.  

Not at all. What a silly thing to say.
