The shoes. :thumbsu:
 
Guaranteed ASIO security/terrorism "scare" between now and the election.

I'm gonna say mid March.


"Govt announces it has arrested a prominent illegal refugee and terrorist, 5 hours later they release Waleed Aly with a muffled apology."

These folk arse clowns.

As the Victorian election showed, though, it will gain zero traction and may actually have a negative effect.

I like to think voters are cottoning onto the national security scare campaigns now - the boats aren't in the news and terrorism isn't guiding debate any more. They just want a stable government.

Good point. I think it works more successfully in a federal context though. There's a reason the Libs go back to boats every time - it works.

'Stop the boats' work when there are boats turning up every week, but with minimal media coverage on the issue people just want a government that governs. I suspect if you ask 10 voters now what is more important for a government - economy or national security - 9 would pick the former.

Yeah I agree. It'll save some seats though, I feel.
 
Might save seats in Qld and NSW but will probably cost seats in Vic and SA. Not sure how WA will lean on the matter.

The electorates that are actually affected by boat people issues (eg Northam detention camp) are coalition heartland anyway and the rhetoric does no favours in immigrant heavy communities that tend to live in the more marginal Perth suburb electorates.

How much do you want to bet that there will be footage of a boat on the news within the next couple of days, despite Dutton not allowing details of any arrivals to be announced?

This is bottom of the barrell stuff and so f*cking obvious.

Racist fearmongering didn't help the Coalition in the Victorian election and it won't help them now.

It is, but it's any port in a storm time for Morrison. As of this morning he was getting obliterated in May.

If you were him in his current position, why not grab the ball and run?

A replica of the endeavour is loading up with asylum seekers in Indo as we speak
 
Quite stunning today - Speers repeatedly pushed Morriscum to acknowledge that the bill that passed the House yesterday only applies to those currently on Manus and Nauru. He pressed him to say it simply for the sake of deterring people smugglers.

He refused to say it. It's there in black and white in the bill, but it doesn't fit his desperate narrative of Labor weakening our borders, so he wouldn't say it. Absolutely gutless, pathetic worm.
