There maybe no truth in this but as the government don't comment on on-water operations, who's to know?

It can't be true because Tone stopped the boats and the people smugglers. I read it on BE.

A sensible, budget saving measure

Yes, if Joe Hockey and Tony Abbott were on this boat.

OMG, I hope you arent doubting BE wisdom

Amazulu

Cool - as long as you include the 2 socialist assholes, Rudd and Gillard, that got us into this mess

It could have been worse if John Howard hadn't set them up for an easy ride.

And it could be worth investing in another boat for the Greens, some more of Labor and several from the ABC

We could do an exchange program. 1 politician for 1000 asylum seekers. Or the other way around. No returns policy.

Beoz

I agree with exchanging the politician, but how can we guarantee the return currency is of value?

knockoff nige

You mean 'people of calibre'? Or the right type of asylum seeker who won't clog up the M4?

Beoz

Sure. There's more asylum seekers than entry places. They all can't be relocated at the same time. And since we are welcoming them into our home, shouldn't we have the choice as to who takes priority? Do you have another system of prioritization you would like to share with us?

Actually, I thought you were joking. What's the criteria to classify as worthy to replace a politician?

Amazulu

We should only allow skilled asylum seekers in

Afghan goat herders need not apply

If we're willing to send back an unqualified government, why should we insist in skilled asylum seekers?
