Speaking of hysteria, what about all this ranting and raving from the Right about the Medvac Bill ?

A danger to the public when these people will not be released into the community, but guarded all the time they are here ? Give me a break.

Encouraging people smugglers when the Bill only applies to those already on Manus and Nauru ?

Morrison and Dutton were screaming hysterically in Parliament and on the media, to anyone but the Far Right they were making complete asses of themselves.

They are the ones who are a danger to the public in my view, I can hear the jackboots stamping right now.
 
I am sure someone is paying someone in Indonesia to send a boat at the precise correct time required.

Desperate times cause desperate measures.

I agree with you to a certain extent. However, I think the people smugglers will exploit the fact that there is a CHANGE to encourage those who may be tempted to travel. The nuances of the Bill will not be something that they will explain to the potential customers.

If the smugglers are smart they will not start their trade until Shorten is in power or they might be a risk, albeit small, that he might lose due to the trade re-starting. When Shorten is in control it will be easy enough to show that many in his party view the current changes as not enough and suggest that all they need do is reach a detention centre or be placed in a detention centre and within a few years they will be able to get to Australia.

Yes well... if the boats are coming because of this one-off deal they would've been arriving in droves after that other one-off deal the Coalition made with the US to offload 1200 asylum seekers. Morrison and Dutton are taking the peace and turning it into something more lethal.
 
Except they do not want to go to the US..no centerlink for years on end there...but i must just be repeating fox propaganda, everyone knows that our illegal immigrants are all surgeons, nobel price potential and role models...i know, i watch ABC and read the guardian

There is still the apple of Dutton's eye Operation Sovereign Borders to turn back the boats, so I don't think the boats will get here.

Was Q&A worth watching?

Yes most of it was good. I liked the 1 minute restriction, that seemed to work.
Peterson and McGregor were outstanding. Butler was an idiot (and Peterson easily dismissed her), Hawke was very ordinary and Badham was bad and a ham.
Tony kept, unusually, out of it and therefore made it more watchable.

One or two silly questions but there was a lot of common ground and balance. Curious about Milo Yiannopoulos' appearance but I agree JP was outstanding - and very popular with the crowd.

I thought his best comeback to Terri Butler was about the impracticability of gender quotas.... most bricklayers are male therefore why not set a 50% female quota for bricklaying. It's a logic I can identify with at my work... the women were happy to get equal pay but it's dam evil to expect them to kick the fecal matter like the rest of us :)

Predictably enough, Feminist and SJW are saying JP looked like an idiot and was thoroughly owned by badham and Butler.

I suppose the divide is too great these days.

There is probably a PhD thesis in there on cognitive biases.
 
Just watched it....
Badham the "Christian Marxist" came across as a brainwashed idiot.

Butler seemed disappointed everyone was hating on feminism. I like how her and badham started attacking the questioner. That was the whole point of his question.
