Sri Lanka is an ally of Australia in the war on terror.

I myself work with a Sri Lankan who says pretty much the same thing about how those arriving into Australia are mere economic migrants wanting a better life.
They aren't fleeing anything at all.

I'd take a knowledge of a guy from there than yours, mine or even Dangerous Dave's.

I also work with a guy from Sri Lanka who says the opposite to what your guy from Sri Lanka says.
And I have a Sri Lankan friend who says the opposite to what your guy from Sri Lanka says.

So going by your logic, 2 opinions of my friends, outweigh 1 opinion of your friend.

I hope you understand how foolish it is to suggest that an opinion of an individual outweighs reporting in media, Dangerous Dave's, US leaked cables, UN investigations, etc. etc.

Are they Tamils?

By the way the Australian Government past and present declared Sri Lanka safe.
Are we ignoring them too?

Oh, you know "a guy"! Well, I'm sure that your guy is much more knowledgeable than the Federal Governments both current and previous who both declared Sri Lanka to be safe. They're economic migrants (illegal immigrants), plain and simple...

LOL, you morons are also taking credit for the reduction as being in consequence of Rudds PNG solution and nuffin to do with Abbott.

bugger me, you lot have tiny minds.

and yours must be smaller or non existent...

Rudd, in a desperate attempt to win votes before the last election, started to reapply John Howards Australian Boarder protection policies...

this was after he removed them 6 years previous.. it took HUNDREDS OF BOATS and over 50,000 ILLEGALS for him to see the error of his misguided do-gooding ways to finally admit that Howard was RIGHT and he was WRONG and to reintroduce the Pacific Solution Polices...

only an idiot could see it any different...

So here you admit that the boats were significantly slowed before anything Abbott had contributed took effect.

Sorry tony
1/1/14 and your first boat has been intercepted off bathurst island.

Gee wow, one boat in a matter of weeks. Lets all hit the panic button. No, hang on! That might be a bit hasty. I seem to recall a time when we were getting 2-3 boats a day. Oh yeah, that's right - it was the norm under Labor over the previous 6 years!

when was that exactly?

During much of Gillard's reign of terror as PM. You wouldn't remember - you had beer goggles on and your head in the sand...

so you don't know when? I didn't think so ... all you did was make yourself look like an idiotic liar

serves you right for pretending you know what you are talking about !!!
