They are fishing people from the water and the government don't appear to care.

The political infighting goes on and on and nothing is solved.

fishing for fish is fun. Fishing people from the water is a nightmare for the ones involved on all sides.

This is proof our government on either side of politics you align your self to  have no idea on what to do with this ever increasing serious situation.  Lives are being lost while they fight over words a million miles away from where it is happening.  Keeping these people in another country who has not signed the United Nations treaty on the treatment of refugees is NO solution to this problem.  The fellow that suggested this in parliament needs to sit down and have a very good long look at himself.  He is shameful and stupid.  Proof they give this very little real thought.

They are seeing people as commodities and not as humans who have endured so much suffering they embark on a leaky boat in the promise of a safer life.  Is it too much to ask.  We take so few here in Australia in comparison to the other countries who have a refugee policy in place.

Once again I have to say that I am not a proud Australian citizen.  This is shameful behavior by our politicians who are just people like you and me.  What makes Julia the boss. She is a freak and she hasn't got a clue about strategy.  She could not organize our own people let alone deal with the culture of others.  She is not a mother and because of this she is lacking the full understanding of what it is and what it takes and how it effects a family on an emotional level.  These people are all people with children. Julia hasn't got a clue when the truth is boiled down.  She is winging it and she is doing a very bad job!

Indigenous and human rights groups have condemned the rushed passing of the Stronger Futures legislation through the Senate in the early hours of this morning.

I oppose the legislation namely " Stronger Futures".  I am ashamed that our government have taken a step  back in time and think this is the answer to the problems by highlighting what a mess they have already left behind with useless legislation in the past.

Vincent Forrester says the situation in the community of Mutitjulu, south-west of Alice Springs, has deteriorated since the Intervention and will only get worse under the Stronger Futures laws.
"I am calling on all Aboriginal Territorians for civil disobedience," he said.

I love you Aunty!

 Mutujulu has many strong woman who oppose this legislation and this is restricting the entire community from itself.  I agree with Vince Forrester and we need to rise up against this and try to fight this policy on the ground!
