Isn't it interesting—the Leader of the Opposition stands up and advocates a breach of the refugee convention, which was precisely the ground on which he opposed our proposal for processing in Malaysia. No fact demonstrates more that this Leader of the Opposition is not interested in saving lives, is not interested in good public policy—he just wants to play politics day in, day out. I think that those opposite are on to him. The Australian people are on to him. They are sick of his aggressive negativity, day after day going the biff, showing aggression and not getting decent outcomes for Australia.

Wayne why don't you wake up and realise that the Australian public are sick and tired of you and the illegals that are bludging on this country. It is you and your labor/greens that we are sick of. STOP the boats , STOP allowing the country shoppers into Australia. Malaysia solution what a joke, sorry but the loss of life is nothing to do with Australia, try blaming the people smugglers and those who look to take advantage of our stupid generosity!!!!!
