Reopening Christmas Island means, I don’t have anything to say about the legislation, because I can’t think of anything relevant, so I will try an Abbott tactic. Scare the Australian people into believing my BS! MuppettPMScomo

Reopening the death camp ready for the Australian political dissidents.

Political stunt! He's a bit like Trump, sulking because he didn't get his way!

It’s a political masterstroke. If they arrive around election time the place is prepared and ready, no one caught off guard. If they don’t arrive it’s been an effective deterrent.

WeeklyTimesAU michellegrattan JohnAlexanderMP AU borders NOT strong. Contrary to ScottMorrisonMP 's claim suburbs in Sydney turn into mono cultural ghettos via his immigration program. High house prices drive out lifelong residents Only Ozzies on pic seem security guards

Check mate for labor if boats start arriving again.

What SCOMO says to me that the Army and the Navy they do not know they job and refugees will escape from they radar he’s just stupid to convince me otherwise

Scaremongering that's all. He is trying to tell the boats the hotel is open and blame labor if they come.

It means labor has completely f up by not listening to national security and they will be responsible yet again for more deaths at sea

Is that where we can send all those evangelical nut jobs that keep stuffing up this country?

Slimy creatures, we are not fooled.

It will probably house all those with mental health issues

This is another Tampa. Labor allowing opportunists to jump queue and Smugglers to get back on business. They love leftist Labor!

The act of a petty vindictive manchild.

It means that the LNP are desperate, lying scoundrels with a measure of morality which matches their compassion.

Political posturing by a desperate “government” which knows it will be annihilated at the next election. Australian voters have had enough of this bullshit “government”.

DISTRACTION ?

There’s a very easy ways around this. Fund Indonesia Armed Forces to stop the embarkations and to manage the boats when they return. Australian AFP & Navy Boats should supply refugee boats with food and water, turn them around and fix their rudders for Indonesia. Bye!, bye!.

It means the ALP are dills and fell into the same old trap . Take your advice from the Left and the Greens then you shouldn't be surprised if people think the ideas are wacky. This will damage the ALP at the polls . Big time.

It means the Temp is panicking

Why do it ScottMorrisonMP is an empty vessell, at least tony beleived in his warped divisive bs. This guy is just scum sticking around for his ting egos 15 mins b4 he gets whats coming. auspol

They can't do all of this in 3 months & then they will be gone!

The coalition are obsessed with freedom suppressive security and fear tactics to distract voters from the problems we have in Australia.

It’s called scaremongering I believe

ScottMorrisonMP use the $4.1 billion foreign aid to give AID relief to our farmers in Nth central Qld.

It means the rise of Happy Clapper fascism:

Russian islands under 'mass invasion' of polar bearsThere are reports of bears attacking people and entering homes in Russia. Well if the Russians weren't in favour of melting the Bears' home the bears wouldn't have to go looking for somewhere else to live... Polar bears don't invade.
