Turn the boats back

TONY Abbott’s plan to send back all asylum-seeker boats has drawn fire from Indonesia’s police as well as the UN High Commissioner for Refugees as dangerous and in breach of international law. Presuming the Greens, human rights activists and other assorted left wing bleeders also disagree then that most probably makes it a good plan. The fact that he says he will turn back the boats doesn’t mean every boat will be turned back. It will depend on how quickly the illegal Social Security applicants can sabotage their boats, but at the very least, this should make for good video. I am a bit surprised at Admiral Barry being quoted in the media as being against the plan. He may care to look up ‘ethics of service officers’, particularly the bits that refer to how he should be apolitical lest he end up shoveling coal with the other RAN stokers after the next election. There will be more to Abbott’s plan than ‘turn the boats back’ but by announcing this aspect now it will allow the Social Security applicant’s fan club to wear out their angst and perfect their underestimation of Abbott to a more disillusioned level.

  • “After speaking at considerable length on Sunday with Commander Banks, the commanding officer of HMAS Adelaide, I have now reached the conclusion there is no evidence to support the claim that children were thrown overboard”
    Barrie quoted on 27.02.2002.
    Chris Barrie tells the truth. That’s a problem for a senior officer when his political masters play him for a mug. No wonder he’s gone public on this even after retirement – once bitten, twice shy.
