At the moment I think the agreement is good and I hope it achieves what they set out to do. To many people have died. I don't think it will stop everyone attempting the dangerous trips because some people are that desperate.
Politically it has been one of the best moves I have seen by any party. The coalition as far as I am concerned has failed to cover this move but quite honestly I can't see how you can after already stating a policy which is not good enough IMO. It really come from nowhere. The coalition has been harping on about asylum seekers, as they should have since it has been a weak spot for ALP. The coalition decided to go the "tough on asylum seekers " stance, by saying they would tow the boats back and if people died it is not their fault it is the "people smugglers fault".
If you are a swing voter which policy would you choose?
If I was the coalition I would drop "asylum seekers" as a election issue, unless they are able to do some great spinning.
Your parody ad is fine but I am sure the coalition would not want to be associated with it, but I could be wrong. Did you say that you are a member of the Liberal party?
