There are people dying on Manus and Nauru, and you go to the courts to stop sick people from being treated in Australia, and then vote against med-evacts. We are supposed to believe you care about asylum seekers?

davidbewart Barnaby is a CROOK!

davidbewart Well who would believe anything this pisspot says?

davidbewart 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😛Medevac.

davidbewart Ha, only because Dutton has pulled in the patrol boats...and probably paid the people smugglers to get moving.

davidbewart It would be much better if jokowi spent the millions of dollars in australian aid in building a bridge to Christmas Island, no drownings

Sure ted.

So Barnaby_Joyce has no idea of the MediVacBill either? Get off the piss and get with the facts

Who cares what Joyce thinks. What about the dead fish Joyce?

Looks like they all got their briefing from Master Rupert as the muppets of the dark right media and politicians send out the same negative views

Dramatic heavy£line seeker

Who?

It’s such a shame you are going on about this crap. Most of the country still in drought, YES STILL. People’s livelihood have been devastated from the floods. 300000+ cattle loss from the flood. The Darling River is dead. Get your priorities in order.

Well one thing we don’t have to worry about is anyone sneaking along the rivers in the MDB in a riverboat because Beetrorter is responsible for draining the rivers and killing native fish!

Guess se will have to wait and see

Hope Joyce drops dead

Barnyard Barnaby, moral featherweight, tries to salvage a shipwrecked career.

Barny's a well known rorter and liar. Just ask his ex wife. I wouldn't give 2 cents for what Barnaby_Joyce thought.

He would know he sunk the Nationals boat.

MedEvac Auspol

The Medevac bill does anything to weaken existing border security measures. This propaganda is dangerous & an outright lie.

Joyce you killed a river closethecamps

Your quoting a guy who has failed Australia miserably on so many levels & if a NIC is established will more than likely face jail time for commonwealth fraud. Great source of knowledge that youre willing to use to feed the public information.

Far too long in the sun...Go and have a sleep...

Sorry, who just reduced patrols?! Is Labor in power already? LNP emergency fabrication just in time for an election

The boats never stopped. The only thing that stopped was the information. How many of the ten's of thousands turned back by force at sea in leaking boats have drowned as a direct result of LNP policy and been hidden from the Public behind fake border security rules. auspol

As Moses of the inland waterways I’m sure drying up a sea would be little problem for the greatest retail politician

OMG throw Barnaby wannabe over board preferably into the Murray Darling basin he is responsible for RUN BARNABY RUN

Barnaby_Joyce is an arseclown and a backbencher. Why do you bother asking him about stuff he knows nothing about?

The barfly has not credibility left, so all he can do now is run out the usual party slogans and lies. auspol MediVacBill

Who is listening to Barnaby these day?

He's an adulterer. Why do you still bother with him?

Lies and more lies

Have another beer then go back to sleep Joyce

What's the difference between dying on a boat and dying due to no medical attention most things are treatable

Buongiorno maestro Barnaby🌞

He is a nobody. A loser. Drowning in his own evil toxic rubbish talk. Get him out of here now. We demand it. So there....

My God, you people want people to risk their lives on the boat trip.

familyvalues

Give Barnaby credit. He's stopped the boats navigating the darling auspol

Barnaby is a discredited dolt with zero credibility. Christmas Is is just a massive LNP tantrum

Tell that MP we are not taking our eyes off him he is more danger to the Australian people and the environment than that of an extremely ill refugee.auspol

Seems now the survival of the Morrison government depends on boats arriving anytime soon. So when they do, a thorough investigation of the circumstances- like who’s paying the people smugglers will be necessary. ElectionNOW auspol

Bullshit

This is classic Trump territory. Go back to counting beans.

Much the same as giving water rights to up stream irrigators corruptly cause a death of a river system? simonahac

Jesus Christ! Why is this galoot still in parliament. He’s a disgrace. Why do you continue to indulge him? theboltreport LiberalAus 3AWNeilMitchell theheraldsun SenatorFifield TheIPA M_McCormackMP The_Nationals NationalFarmers ASRC1 smh cnni nytimesworld auspol

You couldn't keep fish alive Barnaby_Joyce...why the hell would we think you'd be better with people?

Their all lining up to practice their lies

I like Beer

What a skid mark on Australia .

Spent ‘force’ or is that ‘horse’!

Not true Barnaby ... your chaos is our greatest weakness

Just don't evac them to Armidale or Barnaby will try to fuck them. These people have been through enough already.

The only thing guaranteed to sink anytime soon is the LiberalAus and it will sink allllllll the way to the bottom! auspol callanelection

From what has been revealed recently, Barnaby isn't the one to make comments on water issues. Fish die under his stewardship.

Oh ffs, how does a common vegetable keep getting such airtime? I refuse to plant beetroots because all I see now is Barnaby.

AnthonyCole68 The ‘argument’ of a true simpleton ... 🤡

Yes they will! It’ll be the Rats leaving the SS LibNatanic!

Thought you were busy looking after your new child and needed privacy

Drama queen. All the bill will do is provide medical attention to those that need it.

How's the drought going Barnaby_Joyce

More lies from a man we can trust...

& Armidale sink Barnical Joy☺

Why would anybody believe what Drought Envoy Joyce who won't go the Murray Darling says?

And Whyalla will be wiped off the map.....

Why would this concern the man who has locked refugees up on an island without trial for five years. He is sending innocent people insane without help of medical assistance. Why would someone like this suddenly be bothered by ppl dying at sea?

Can you be on one of those boats? Barnaby_Joyce

The libs don’t care a toss if people drown it just adds to their scaremongering!!!!

There’s Wally. Where was he hiding.

So Labor is killing asylum seekers? How are they soft, again?

CostasHelen

He could drain the sea like he did the rivers, that would stop them

People in detention are dying Barnaby_Joyce and the boats will start because ScottMorrisonMP wants to open ChristmasIsland detention centre.

Bullshit

Like you know what you’re talking about. NOT!

The same Barnaby Joyce they charged the taxpayer for his mistress getaways?

Remind me, who is Barnaby_Joyce ?

The quicker Australia leaves the corrupt UN, the sooner this crap will finish

Australian warplanes in the Middle East also means people will die.

Is Barnaby still around?

Labor is not even in power and they have weakened our immigration policies and security of this country, this is just an entre to the main meal that they will serve when they get in. their policies literally kill people not save them, history is proof of that.

Medivac medevac

Like he'd understand 😀

As long as it doesn't lead to senior politicians bending junior staffers over their desks! That's all we can pray for, I guess.

Shame your not on the boat!

Liar 🤥

Bollocks.

I’m going to leave and come back as a refugee, that way I can get medical treatment faster than Australian citizens 🤬

That's your plan for winning the election, you want the boats to start and you're planning for them to start. Everyone in Australia already knows that.

Ol Barney reckons that then! Well a man who is so devoted to being truthful and honest would know.....damn! The room is full of flying pigs!

Time to scrape the barnacle off.

Barney, shhhhh, you don’t matter.

Is Cheatin’ Lyin’ Barnaby giving moral lectures now? How amusing 😂

Barnaby Joyce. I really don’t think he has any credibility with Australian public anymore, after his immoral treatment of his wife and daughters. He will be history in May.

Says the man who's credibility is probably the lowest of anyone in the LNP. And that's saying something!

Medivac Bill is a joke. There is 1 doctor for every seven detainees. They are not locked up, free to come & go. Some have married locals. Some have started businesses. There are no children in detention. 419 have had medical in Aust. and stayed. Why the Bill?

Good. Less financial outlay on the public purse.

complete rubbish coming from the mouth of a numptie!

How can a disgraced pollie be invited in for his opinion. He should have been shamed into silence if he had any decency.

100% incorrect. Not “warns”. You mean “repeats” Barnaby Joyce. Morrison said it, Dutton, Abbott, Pyne, Joyce, Henderson, Fifield, Henderson, et al have just repeated it. It’s a feature of the hive mind. No original thought possible from the drones.

What crap !! You should concentrate on the darling . There is no hope of anything drowning in it . 😡

That sounds like a threat.

Did he actually read the new bill ? It stipulates only people who are now on Manus and Nauru are to receive medical assistance. The boat people who come now will not receive this service.

Bullshit - clearly you haven’t read the Bill

THE MEDIVAC LAW DOESN'T CHANGE A THING FOR ANY NEW ARRIVALS. NOTHING IS WEAKENED. SKY: Other people's lies are our news. Put all the quotation marks around it that you like, if you are knowingly printing falsehoods without qualification, you are not a journalist. auspol

AnthonyCole68 Like Barney would know. He’s only parroting what his masters have told him.

AnthonyCole68 Sleaze

yeah sure i’ll take guidance on anything at all from the minister of fucking up everything in sight

The boats will come under Labor.

Barnaby Joyce !

No one cares what this plonker thinks. Irrelevant you are Barnaby_Joyce

it's Australia's coastline we don't have a border with another country & our internal borders are okay unless we don't want to mix with our neighbouring states !!

AnthonyCole68 There will be a plague of locusts, and the Nile will turn to blood and the fish will die. Oh that's right Barnaby, the fish did die didn't they... I wonder why?

Is this the same Barnaby Joyce who killed all of the fish in the murraydarling?

Joyce the rooting rorting failure? Well by all means I'll listen to him! auspol

So, conduct an orderly departure program which involves safe passage from our region, an increased ratio of humanitarian visas. Cheaper than your mates in Paladin. Why not ? Because u can’t use refugees to whip up fear. And the public could see your rorts without distraction

Which will squarely rest on your shoulders along with the LNP for inciting this bullshit by playing with People's lives in a vain attempt to hold power.

I’ve never liked beetroot

No credibility. Joyce Abbott Morrison Dutton frydenberg etc. Zip zero none. auspol LNPfail

He is right of course, Australia has a very generous welfare system, its worth a risk to get on it for many. Quite amazing the number of boat people who are still living happily on welfare years after coming here.

Who cares what this criminal thinks. Being a duel he owes the taxpayer in excess of a million illegally earned dollars.

Didn’t you get the memo? Stop calling for the boats to come. Morrison detailed how they respond to anything remember.

Transfer them to the Murray/Darling, Barnaby, No chance they will drown there.

Nobody is believing your lies...

This muppet has screwed every government issue he’s been minister for! From staff members to the Murray Darling!

Barnaby crawl back under your rock from whence you came. You Weaken Australia's credibility which leads to people wanting to do away with ourselves from Humiliation

Medivac bill will undermine Australia's sovereignty: Coleman | Sky News AustraliaImmigration Minister David Coleman has slammed the controversial medical evacuations bill. \n\nThe bill, put forward by Independent MP Kerryn Phelps, would allow two doctors to authorise a medical transfer to Australia if they believed asylum seekers could not get adequate treatment in offshore detention. \n\nMr Coleman has told Sky News political editor David Speers the bill would strip the government of its power to decide who comes to Australia ‘and that is not how a sovereign government is run’. \n\nParliament will vote on the bill when it resumes on Tuesday. \n

Decision on medivac bill to be announced Tuesday | Sky News AustraliaA decision is expected to be announced on Tuesday on whether Labor will support the controversial medivac bill that gives doctors greater powers to transfer refugees to Australia. \n\nBill Shorten's Labor Party is under pressure to abandon its support of the bill amid official advice that suggests up to one thousand refugees could arrive in Australia within weeks. \n\nLabor has spoken about the importance of ministerial discretion, indicating it may support the relevant minister having veto powers on all medical transfers.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia \n\n\n\n Oh boy - they had better NOT!
