Asylum immigrants - Green Light

$4.4m was the invoice from Indonesia for rescuing last week's asylum seekers from their waters and returning the survivors to them.

Australia has agreed to provide an additional $4.4 million to enhance links between the two nations' search and rescue agencies.

It would seem Gillard's offshore processing is nothing but a camouflage. It's only part of the proven Pacific Solution and TPVs and turning the boats back when safe to do so were the remaining legs of the three legged stool.

It seems Gillard wants these boat arrivals and will even pay Indonesia so our navy can go and collect them - at further taxpayer expense. Unbelievable.

And why would she implement TPVs when it's clear her actions show she wants as many as possible to come here. Is it for votes? What will happen when the arrivals form their own party - they won't be voting labor then, imo.

Funny you should say this - I have a lot of friends from Sri Lanka and India - and they say they will vote Labor for life as Bob Hawke let their parents roll in so they have to repay!

CRAZY!

A lazy three boats in a day.

"From today, any boat and any person who turns up on a boat must go to Nauru - no exception," Mr Morrison said.

"They all must go to Nauru from this point on."

Scott Morrison shouldn't be so silly.

The island would sink under the weight.

Is this is a situation where smugglers are bringing unsuspecting passengers who are likely to be taken to offshore processing? Once Nauru and Manus Island facilities are full, then the smugglers just carry on bring people to Christmas Island as usual?

When will this government learn they need more than just offshore processing? But perhaps Gillard actually wants these arrivals - is it for votes?

AUSTRALIAN authorities have intercepted a boat carrying 63 suspected asylum seekers off the West Australian coast.

It is the third boat intercepted by authorities in the past 24 hours and brings to 202 the number of passengers who have arrived in that time.

Labor could stop the boats by unionising the smugglers and getting them to go on strike.

Labor created a costly problem to Australia when they dismantled the successful Liberal solution.

All I can do when I see them try and extradict themselves from this self inflicted mess is to laugh my head off.

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha



Imbeciles

And so the expense continues: One officer for every detainee flown off Christmas Island to Nauru


And do we have to provide cleaning and cooking services as well? Why aren't the arrivals expected to help care for themselves? Isn't this just fostering a sense of "no responsibility"? Why not give them rosters?

The minister revealed Transfield, operator of Melbourne's Eastlink, will cook and clean for asylum seekers and provide transport on Nauru.

Nauru and Manus Island full before they even open

That's a sensible idea. And surely the asylum seekers themselves would prefer to be constructively occupied.
If we have Australians obliged to engage in work for the dole projects, it's hard to see why anyone wanting to come to live in Australia wouldn't be happy to make a contribution.

Labor's lazy $5bn.

The legislative instrument tabled by Mr Bowen says it is estimated 704 asylum seekers have died at sea since October 2009, and the cost to the budget over the next four years due to the surge in arrivals is not more than $5 billion.

Labor's lazy legislation ??

Mr Keke also anticipates possible delays to the transfer of asylum seekers because of a potential legal challenge to Australia's offshore processing legislation.

Labor will continue to flounder and the Opposition will continue to watch.

As Immigration Minister Chris Bowen's signed declaration on Nauru as a regional processing country went to the Senate for approval yesterday, Liberal frontbencher Scott Morrison said the government must bear all responsibility for the success or failure of Nauru.

"If the government seeks support from the Coalition down the track and they have failed to take our advice and continued to resist the implementation of the full suite of Howard government measures, if they wait as Nauru fills up and fills up, our policy will be this -- you break it, you own it," the opposition immigration spokesman said.

Labor confirmed on Monday it remained in talks with the Malaysian government over the prospect of reviving the Malaysia Solution, but Home Affairs Minister Jason Clare yesterday rejected Coalition calls to tow back asylum-seeker boats, saying the policy risked the lives of navy personnel and asylum-seekers.

This bit says it all, imo:

you break it, you own it," the opposition immigration spokesman said.

Labor have ignored the other vital parts of the Pacific Solution and offshore processing in isolation is clearly not working. Labor will need to take responsibility, but just watch them try to blame Abbott...

Wake up Australia we are being stupid.

We need this like a hole in the head.

Some people are going to have to do some soul searching when we have our first horrific experience. Hopefully it doesn't happen.

More boats arriving. Another two yesterday. Two asylum boats intercepted

It seems that Gillard's use of offshore processing in isolation to the rest of the pacific solution was nothing but an illusion to lift her in the polls. It's clearly not working to stop the boats with hundreds arriving since that announcement and far more than apparently can be taken to Nauru or Mannus Is.

In an interview with Meet the Press below, Julie discusses the weekend riot and the ongoing boat arrivals:

 

[Boggo]

Anyone can see why they would want to come here !

This bit below from Pickering...

The Gillard Government has given over $10 million of our taxes to the Islamic cause. Hard to believe? Here are just a few recipients:

The Islamic Council of QLD.
The Islamic Council of Victoria.
The Lebanese Muslim Association.
Victorian Arabic Social Services.
The Federation of Ethnic Communities.
Australian Somali Federation.
Forum on Australia Islamic relations, and 18 other cells including Islamic University Groups.

A curiously included donation was one to Gillard’s favourite football club and a $45,000 curtain enabling Islamic women to bathe in the Monash Council Pool.

It appears only the wealthy Islamic movement is worthy of our taxes while our Christian schools are about to be de-funded.

Maybe this wouldn’t be so bad if Gillard’s largesse didn’t find its way to foreign terrorist groups, which it invariably does.

Another boat capsizes - when will this government stop the pull factor of permanent residency and re-introduce TPVs:

AUSTRALIA has asked for clearance to send aircraft into Indonesian airspace to join the search for survivors of an asylum-seeker boat believed to have capsized off Java's south-west coast.

By 1pm Jakarta time two merchant vessels in the area had rescued 189 people from the wooden fishing vessel.

The boat, believed to be carrying about 200 passengers, was previously notified about 40 nautical miles south of Panaitan Island early today

Well this has to take the cake, the goon show is saying that this is due to them. What a joke, what a bunch of dick witts.

http://www.smh.com.au/opinion/polit...-to-nauru-and-return-home-20120922-26dcp.html

Just shows how shallow they are.

Didn't they have to be dragged kicking and screaming down this path? The policy they shut down when they got into government.
Just shows a gutless government that basically attaches itself to any doner party policy, it may be a new form of parasitic policy government.

Andrew Bolt asks why are they being transferred to Christmas Island when they were rescued in Indonesian waters...I agree...why?
