I do think we should push the ABC to carry out a fact check on how they treated the ALP Govt versus the LNP govt.

It's kind of odd that we accept the ABC as a classic exemplar of facts when it comes to the "fact checks", but balk at other things we suspect are political persuasions. :rolleyes:

Well it isn't a fabrication that the ABC and Fairfax disliked Abbott while opposition leader, and this has carried over into his prime minister role.

I don't think they have an open dislike against the LNP, it seems to be very focused on Abbot. Maybe they have found circulation improves, by focusing the public on a common enemy, then just keep feeding them stories.

There has always been and still is a disproportionate level of Abbott focused articles. You just have to look on the cover page of the ABC and Fairfax websites, on any day, most articles will be Abbott or LNP focused.
This hasn't changed since Labor took office in 2007.

As I have said before, control the media and you control the naive public.
 
The people smugglers are still probing for any weakness,

At least two asylum seeker boats have been turned back to Indonesia in recent weeks as people smugglers try to depict Immigration Minister Peter Dutton as soft on border protection.

Sources told The West Australian that criminal syndicates were using social media and SMS alerts to tell would-be boat people that Mr Dutton was more compassionate than his predecessor Scott Morrison. The Government responded with increased disruption activities and a social media campaign of its own.

A video from Mr Dutton emphasises continuing the hard line on border protection.

It is believed a Customs vessel was last night moving to intercept an asylum vessel from Indonesia and officers would probably try to turn it back if the vessel was capable.

Indonesian media reported last week that asylum seekers claimed to have made it to Christmas Island but were sent back on the same boat. But Australian authorities insist no asylum seeker vessels have made landfall in recent months.

The boat people, six Iranians, two Nepalese and seven Bangladeshis, were found off West Java on Sunday.

Labor after all its criticism of and who still apposes turn backs remains no match for the criminal syndicates.

So Kevin Rudd's solution works then?
Click to expand...

Kevin Rudd's solution was to locate boat people into Papua New Guinea which was a ploy to lure voters before the 2013 election...a ploy to make voters think Rudd was doing something about the mess he created and to the best of my knowledge only one illegal immigrant has settled in PNG....Rudd was dragged kicking and screaming into doing what the Liberal Party wanted to do which was off shore processing.

So please don't give us the this nonsense about Kevin Rudd......Kevin Rudd lured 1250 men, women and children to their watery death....Rudd allowed 50,000 (mostly Muslims) into Australia and added $11 billion to the bottom line....those 50,000 added to the division of the community which we witnessed over Easter.

What's different to Rudd's instigated solution and the current one being employed?

Kevin Rudd did not believe in permanent protection visas.

The current one being employed (that is off shore processing) was always a Liberal Party policy which the Labor Party had no alternative but to fall inline with to save some of the furniture before the 2013 election....Australian voters were fed up with the Green/Labor left wing socialist policy of open boarders and Bill Shorten wants to open the boarders again.

Why did Rudd suddenly decide to use the Liberal Party policy 6 weeks before the election and write it down on the back of an envelope with Richard Marles.....They botched the whole deal with PNG and they knew it would never work.

PNG is a culture which would never have melded in with middle eastern refugees.....From one who knows after traveling through the country on 240 flights over 18 years and believe me, there is a lot of cumulus granititis in PNG....In PNG, you never go out at night....you don't travel into isolated areas by yourself....and you must show a lot of vigilance during the day.

Tisme, if there is anything else you would like to know about PNG, just ask me.
 
The people smugglers of Europe are becoming increasingly bold,

Separately, the EU border control agency Frontex said on Tuesday that migrant traffickers had fired shots to prevent their wooden boat being confiscated after rescuers saved the 250 people it was carrying off the coast of Libya.

After the migrants had been transferred, a speedboat approached and its crew fired several shots into the air before the assailants sped away with the empty migrant boat, Frontex said.

Frontex said the episode marked the second time this year that armed smugglers had taken back a vessel used to transport migrants following a rescue in the central Mediterranean.

Doc, you might as well talk to a brick wall.....you will get a far better response.

The Green/Labor coalition are still in denial about the mess they created 2007/3013.

OSB appears to have chalked up another turn back success,

Meanwhile in Europe, another disaster appears to be unfolding and this is after 8000 arrivals and 400 deaths at sea there last weekend.

Some of what is going on there is very ugly indeed,
