judas IS the PM, prior to that she was the 2IC.
She IS responsible for all their policies and implimentation thereof.
And lest we forget the implications....
It was only a matter of time before something terrible like this happened, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.
The Rudd government were warned and the Gillard government were warned, and what did they do? Julia Gillard made the honeypot even more enticing to encourage the illegal boat people to come to Australia.
Julia Gillard's soft approach and 'welcome signs' lured these people to their deaths.
There hadn't been any deaths in the six years prior to the Rudd government, now there's been over 200 deaths.
It was ALWAYS going to happen.
And it WILL happen again unless Julia Gillard changes her policy.
And Julia Gillard won't change her policy, so get used to seeing these deaths on the front page and on the news bulletins.
Julia Gillard's response has been 'let's not talk about it', and 'it's too soon".
So when shall we talk about it, when isn't it 'too soon'.
Most likely Julia Gillard wants people to forget this over Christmas and then maybe sometime when Parliament resumes in 2011.
Meanwhile more boats can arrive any day.
