If the boats are not coming, then why do we still have 8 Armidale Patrol Boats, a FFG or Anzac Ship and two Cape Class Customs vessels still patrolling the northern region? That's a lot of capability for no boats. Whilst the crews are going to get paid regardless of where they are, just think of the massive cost of fuel, provisions, additional wages for being on operations, psychological issues with pulling dead bodies from the water, and a host of other taxpayer funded outgoings.

They are still coming.

Indeed, they are.

Reporting of the boats has stopped - that's all.

Oh, riiiigggghhhhhttttttt!!! So the government is so incompetent it can't stop some leaky boats, but is apparently (according to you) incredibly competent at ensuring not a single media organisation - mainstream and not - reports on a single one of those fictional boats? Just how much have you been smoking lately??? Grin

I seem to recall your good self lauding Scott Morrison and the cross eyed Lt General who dropped the reporting of boat arrivals down to weekly, then stopped them all together for "operational reasons" Perhaps that explains the lack of reporting rather than the fact the boats may or may not have stopped?

Do you seriously think that the worlds media are all involved in a gigantic conspiracy not to report any boats? Seriously?

Lets say the boats are still arriving in the hundreds as the conspiracy theorist states.

Where the fkk are all the reffos?

Unfortunately, they're probably at the bottom of the ocean.

You guys are still living with the Pixies if you don't think the NLP has 'enforced' a total Media blackout on the 'Boat Operations' out there. Roll Eyes

You have obviously FORGOTTEN how the Media, just managed to express its reluctance for a few weeks before the Black-Out.
I remember quite well how the Media at least got in the remarks on air that "the NLP will be enforcing a total Media ban on any 'illegal boat' activity (out there)."

Of course. If you disagree with this - its because you are a chicken poo in fear of ASIO coming in like the Gestapo and booting down your door.

It's no different to them kicking all the homeless people of the streets (temporarily) in Sydney and basically forcing half of the Sydney population in the 'city' area to leave for a 'holiday' with their very heavy handed and at times brutal enforcement for the visitation of some of the World's Political Leaders (they should have gone to Canberra, rather than 'sightseeing' in Sydney ...they might have actually got some 'work' done!).

There is no 'conspiracy' about this.

Not the media, your brain dead shovel-wielding nincompoop.

The government.

They've admitted it.

Of course, we would know if any boat sank, those people on these boats have extended family in Indonesia and abroad, its sheer lunacy to suggest that all these people would be silenced by the Australian government.
