I will be most interested to hear if and when the opposition come up with policies other than the racial attitudes that they have demonstrated thus far, particularly in relation to their bringing back Work Choices. One can only assume that their old, worn out policies will be reignited at the next election. Those opposite are obviously quite slow at learning the lessons of defeat. The Australian people took very seriously the lies in relation to children overboard. The Australian people do not want to see children locked up in detention centres. They want to see people processed in a speedy manner and in their best interests and those of this country.
